12.31.10 : skinny mini

This photo was taken on New Year's Eve, just as 2010 came to a close. The photos slowed down on the blog this year and so did the insanity at Chez Kaesea. We took it easy and enjoyed having extra time with our darling Fluffs. 2010 was as smooth as 2009 was rocky and we were grateful. Oh, so grateful.

Overall, Kaesea has been doing well. No news to report, but he has remained a Skinny Mini, as we call him around here (also "Bony Maroni" -- we like nicknames). Lately, he has been even a little bit skinnier... is it the cancer, finally coming to call? Or is that he's just passed his 15th birthday (Dec 5) and hey, we're all allowed to get a little bony in our old age? Only time will tell.

Meanwhile, we're so happy to celebrate another new year with our dear Mr. Fluffs and we hope that all of you and your furry (and non-furry, of course) loved ones have a wonderful 2011. We'll try to post more photos here on le blog. I think Kaesea has been feeling neglected. (HA!)

12.08.10 : Here's your &*%$ spirit!

After relaxing [mostly] with Biscuit just a few days before, things turned ugly as the brothers argued over who was getting a Barbie for Christmas.

12.04.10 : le sigh

Poor Kaesea. Biscuit is always a pain in his butt. In this case, also an annoyance on his butt. Perhaps in the spirit of Christmas, Kaesea stayed like this for quite some time (even though he did have that put-upon look on his face...)

11.28.10 : green eyed meowster

11.26.10 : turkey request

The Thanksgiving tradition continued this year.

As we always say: "Kaesea is a cat. Turkey is a bird."
Yup.

11.15.10 : my little sunshine

10.18.10 : el gato

El Gato sez: Who dares wake me from my siesta?

10.16.10 : pure bliss

10.10.10 : chillin'

10.06.10 : SuperCat

10.03.10 : my demands. meet them.

09.27.10 : summer arrives

When it's hot, Kaesea, like most cats, expands:

09.16.10 : dreamy

09.15.10 : who disturbs my sleep?

09.01.10 : welcome to my home

08.29.10 : halloween is coming

Kaesea is already practicing his best vampire face:

08.24.10 : eat up!

I've really only been posting photos of Kaesea around here for the past few months, since there hasn't been any news to report (no news is good news!) but the one area where we've been struggling a little is Kaesea's weight. I prefer it when he's over 11 lbs, and he's been hovering at about 10.6 for the past month or so.

So I've been encouraging him to eat more and he was up to 10.8 this morning. I think he's a little lazy about eating after all of the babying he got when he was sick: "You are going to continue to hand-feed me, right?" Um, hadn't planned on it, Kaesea.

I'm not overly concerned about the weight, as he has been maintaining that 10.6 (not dropping), but, again, I prefer it when he's a little chubbier.

So this photo isn't that exciting, except that it shows Kaesea eating, which is good. Also, it shows the cute little curl at the end of his tail. I love that little curl.

08.20.10 : vast expanse of fluffiness

08.19.10 : vintage fluff

08.18.10 : paws of furry

08.12.10 : pink and green

08.01.10 : mr. fluff

07.28.10 : little brother

Look how cute I am! Aren't I just the cutest? I'm so cu---


Oh, shit. There's something behind me, isn't there?


If I hold very still, maybe it won't come up to me...


It's... right behind me, isn't it? Even though I'm holding super still.


The "Aw" photo. (Admit it -- you gotta say "Aw" to this one.)


"Aw" turns into "Aw, crap..." but Kaesea remains still as he tries to determine what Biscuit might be up to...


As Biscuit starts sniffing more aggressively, Kaesea becomes irritated...


Hey, where'd ya go?

07.26.10 : pppttthhhhtt!

07.23.10 : gorgeous

Yes. Yes I am.

07.20.10 : gun show

I wish I had had a better camera handy when Kaesea was doing this, because it was totally hilarious -- he was all puffed up and ready to rumble.

Kaesea sez: "Got your tickets to the gun show?"

07.17.10 : kitty yoga

Kaesea sez: "Touch toes? Not hard. What are you complaining about?"

07.15.10 : sooo... hot...

Yeah. It's been a bit warm around here.

07.12.10 : kaesea as chessie

Anyone else remember Chessie? The mascot for the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway?

"Sleep like a kitten." You betcha!

07.11.10 : lickin' his chops

07.10.10 : little ball o' kaesea

07.08.10 : super fluff

He's a super fluff.
Super fluff.
He's super fluffy!

07.06.10 : say cheese!

07.01.10 : oh quilt, i love you

06.27.10 : nom nom nom

06.25.10 : the doctor is in

Now... tell me all of your problems...

I'm waiting...

06.23.10 : just plain handsome

06.20.10 : oh, brother

Love these expressions. Kaesea is totally annoyed at the invasion of his space and Biscuit is all wide eyed -- "What's goin' on? Who's annoying? Someone's getting in the way? What? Wait... me? Naw... that can't be it..."

It is, Biscuit. It is.

06.16.10 : sleeping cutie

I can never get enough of these sweet shots of Kaesea sleeping:

06.12.10 : kitty condo

06.07.10 : what's black and white and cute all over?

Kaesea, of course!
