This is what Meimei is doing right now. I throw the ball down the stairs, she brings it back. Then I do it again. And again. And again. She is a happy kitty, albeit one that is evidently part dog.

The lighting isn’t all that great, but I learned today that Meimei plays fetch. With a ball. She brought it all the way upstairs after I got tired of playing and headed for my office. So now I’m throwing it … Continue reading →

So, this is a thing I need to stop Meimei from doing.

A Merry Christmas to all my Christian readers. Here, have a cat picture. This is my life now, except for this week, while Meimei is imprisoned in the guest room while she recuperates. Both of them want to be in … Continue reading →

Miss Meimei is apparently at least a month older than the foster place thought she was. She may be as many as six weeks older. But she came through her spaying just fine. The vet and I had a few … Continue reading →

So my four-month-old kitten? She isn’t four months old. When I got her, they said she was an eight-week kitten, but they were just guessing. I said she looked more like a twelve-week kitten. She was tiny, but she didn’t … Continue reading →

I got some derptastic pictures of the kitties this afternoon. And this was my lap last night. Boy, things are going to get interesting when Meimei is all grown up.

Tig and Meimei are now playing regularly, so much so that I have to wonder if the screeches I hear are real or play screeches. Sometimes, Meimei gets a beat-down from Tig. It is an utter hoot to see them … Continue reading →

This is what Meimei looked like at ten o’clock this morning. I had to take her to the emergency vet, but first I had a book reading/signing at a local synagogue. I took Meimei around 1:30. It was a horrible … Continue reading →

She likes to sleep leaning against my foot. Not ON my foot. Leaning against it. She is on my lap as I write this post, and she has just discovered my Star of David necklace. It appears we are in … Continue reading →
