Meet the Kittens

Professor Murder, aka Pantz
Sweetie Pie Jonus
An uneasy truce

Yep, these are the newest additions to the Futrelle household. They’re named after characters on Mr. Show: Professor Murder (a rapper) and Sweetie Pie Jonus (an imprisoned rap mogul who turns out to be a kitten). I’ve given Prof. Murder the nickname Pantz, short for “sillypants,” and that’s what I usually call her. They have an astonishing amount of energy, and spend much of the day tearing about the apartment, wrestling, and trying to walk across my keyboard. I will post some better pictures once I get them to stay still long enough for me to get good shots of them. Sweetie Pie has some amazing wild-looking markings which don’t really show up all that well in these pictures.

Yes, Pantz does look a bit like my old cat Bobo. She was also (how’s this for weird) born on the day that Bobo died. I don’t know what to make of that.

Also, as you may have noticed, the two of them have managed to transfer every bit of dust and crud in the apartment onto the couch.

OH MY! KITTENS! I love them so much. You getting kittens almost feels like a person I know IRL getting kittens, I’m that excited.

Pantz and pie — what more does a person need? They’re adorable little mess-makers.

I have to warn you, though, getting one black cat and one silver cat was not strategic.

Between them they can leave visible hair on any color fabric.

… and then my ovaries exploded and were never heard from again.

KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTTTTTTTTIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNZZZZZZZZZZZ

Also seconding what Cliff said. I have a weakness for peid animals, so one black-and-white cat and one grey-and-white dog means absolutely *nothing* is safe from pet hair o’ doom.

We have the same problem (one dark tortoiseshell and one light ginger and white). We just cover anything we aren’t using (or at least the chairs the cats are especially fond of) in unneeded covers/blankets that you can just remove when a human wants to use it.

I was just thinking about the kittens yesterday and was going to ask about them. They look so cute.

KITTIES!!

THEY ARE WIPING MY MIND WITH THEIR CUTE!!

… Welp, there goes my productivity for the rest of the day. Guess I might as well get on Tumblr and feel smugly superior to those whose greatest controversy ever is Doctor/Rose v. Doctor/Jack.

DDDDAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

*Expired from cuteness*

Reanimates to say that in 1978, I adopted two kittens (brother and sister actually), one black, one silver tabby (Syn and Greybar), and OMG, DEJA VU.

Oh, there’s also another way to avoid cat hair issues: get all your furniture in cheap leather. I went to this small second hand furniture shop a while ago and picked up two leather computer chairs for £5 each. :O They were to replace the standard computer chairs I had that got kittified beyond all ability to remove the hair.

Everyone will make fart noises when they use it, but it’s immune to cat hair. 😀

I’m working away from my parent’s home over the summer and heading into college in the fall, so no kitties for me :(. But I’m glad you’ve got two adorbz kittens.
