By popular request: Cute kitten is cute!
Dec. 2nd, 2009 10:52 pmBut first, an anecdote:
So we took Callisto in for a vet checkup today, and when the receptionist saw Callisto, she practically squealed and said "Oh my God, she looks just like our clinic kitten! They must meet!" She did a bit of kitten wrangling under a desk and emerged with a gorgeous long-haired black tabby Manx boy kitten, just a few weeks older than Callisto. We brought them close together and they snuffled noses, and the receptionist extended the Manx kitten's paws and petted Callisto on her head with them, and said "Look! I'm petting your kitten with my kitten! That makes it extra-cute. It's, like, meta-petting!"
"I'm petting your kitten with my kitten" is totally going to be a new, horribly inappropriate catchphrase with me.
I know, I know, make with the pictures already.

Standard windowsill shot.

This shot is horribly out of focus, but I included it because it gives you a glimpse of how hilaridonkulous she is when she's playing.

LOOK AT THAT CUTIEPIE FACE OMG

This shot, more than any other I've taken so far, shows off her crazy orange creamsicle leg. Dig it.

This one's just straight-up hilarious.

I just can't get over how pretty mah kitten is. Even Robert's smitten, and he's not really a cat person.
If you want to see the full set and ogle the fucknoxiously large versions, check out my Das Kleinen Fuzzy Bastarden set on Flickr.
