    Meet Trout

    Hey, everyone! I haven't posted on the cat side in a LONG time! But, I have reason to today! My niece is a teacher living in a small town, and, there's not a lot going on where she is. She was debating between a ferret and a cat, and, asked me for advice. Well, she ended up getting this little kitten. She was told he was around seven or eight weeks old. He's a doll, and, really fun. We went to the store last night to get him some things...a catnip toy, a couple of hanging rectangular scratching "posts", nail clippers...and, then it was time for Aunt Kari to take photos! He actually liked the camera, which made it easy to get a few good shots. They're not awesome, mind you, I was only there one night and haven't photographed a kitten in ages. Robyn's an avid reader and a language arts teacher, and, named him after Kilgore Trout, a recurring character in many of Kurt Vonnegut's novels. Enough talking...here's Trout.

    Sittin' pretty...





    rolling around on the kitchen rug...



    Look, everyone, this is where you can scratch without getting soaked!

    sitting on robyn's shoulders while she finds a story to read to her kids...sorry for the lamp!



    reading Edgar Allen Poe's "The Black Cat"...no, seriously! She decided on "The Tell Tale Heart", but, is going to read my favorite, "The Black Cat", closer to Halloween...



    I like this one, you can see he actually has tabby stripes/swirls in his black coat...



    wearing my Mickey Mouse sock on his head...ha ha ha...wish I'd had video!



    he got it off pretty quickly, then, tore into it...he's taking a break to look cute for the camera...

    Oh, no warning needed, but, thank you! We were standing there talking, getting ready to head out for Walmart and mexican food...next thing you know, Trout's almost all the way up Robyn's leg. Like a tree. It was so funny, but, OUCH! He did that several times while I was there, but, started to slow down as he began to realize he got squirted every time. My niece bought four water bottles to place strategically around the house (we each kept one on our hips like guns on holsters!). He'll learn. And, I cut his claws really short, so, that will help! He didn't even squirm when I was trimming them, he's actually really sweet. With a devil streak, as you noticed already!

    Trout is gorgeous! Oh yes, I remember a certain kitten climbing up my leg like a tree! Agony, but so cute.
