As much as I love your newsletters, I love seeing these kitties more. They’re a ray of sunshine in an otherwise dreary, unsettling world. Thank you for sharing them with us.
Next thing you know, on the wee hours one morning very soon, you will hear the thumps and thuds of little furry children playing and climbing and moving about because maybe you forgot, but they love being up at the wee hours when you're getting your best dreams in. They are adorable. And today is a good day. Biden looks formidable and never raised his voice to the public, never trashed anybody, never said anything so much. And the Dems really did get a great deal because even the things that don't look so good have switches that Biden can switch when he needs to and it's for two years!! Maybe we'll ahve the House back next time. It's been a good day.
I got to know Utah when he passed through NYC in the 70's and would come by the Lion's Head. He toured frequently with Rosalie Sorrels, also a wonderful person to know.
I’m not surprised. When I was young high school age a friend told me the moose turd pie story. He told it really well. I never knew where it came from until I searched it on the internet.
Viewing these terrific pictures of those adorable little critters has dropped my blood pressure by about ten points at least. They grow so fast, and that birthing box will soon be too small, and won’t contain them. Our breeder lent us a six-foot diameter play pen when our litters started roaming. Looks like yours are about to start. I, too, would take them all, and eventually wind up with 50 cats. They’re just irresistible. We only got to four when reason set in.
My BP goes back up when Putin plays the victim. I want to hit something, basically him. Merely calling him a hypocrite, with all due respect Lucian, is being too kind by about 10-miles. He’s a monstrous war criminal who should be locked away for eternity, if not just shot.
My former boss in CA, who prided himself on being a good looking jazz pianist as well as a top law scholar, once said something terribly brilliant. I had no trouble agreeing with it and was amazed at his new found wisdom. Was it on the history of employment law? Supreme Court maneuverings? I believe he said something you have already validated today: "Nothing is cuter than kittens."
Names! Personalities to match? Daisy looks like she could be asking Ruby if she's a sister or a mommy. … I like this headlines/kitties format for an occasional early-summery change of pace.
I recollect, in my youth, hearing life being philosophically referred to as such - with the accompanying refrain "the more bread you have, the less shit you get."
There is nothing like a box of kittens to brighten up a day. Once again, your kitten pictures made me smile. One time my mom was laid up and told a friend that she wished she had a bushel basket full of kittens to play with and her friend made it happen.
Wonder if the “chip” in Chip Roy evolved from personal experience with cow chips. Maybe he is knowledgeable of the ingredients in a turd sandwich. Makes sound like he oozed out of one. (Sorry, that’s pretty tasteless.) Going back to your adorable pics of delightful animals! Thank you Tracy and Lucian for the therapy.
The kitten at the upper right of the bottom picture obviously got a load of Mr. T.'s news of the debt ceiling carrying on and the Russia/Ukraine ongoing. I feel the same way.
I love the names of the kittens and they are so cute! What great pictures. I love the smile they bring to my face even when the news is so challenging.
Oh my, just look at those little babies!!! It makes me want to take them all home!!! I'm so glad you share these pictures, they bring a lot of joy!
putin whines just like his best buddy, the orange traitor! Neither of them have any respect for life.
And the republicans, what an additional bunch of whiners who do nothing that even comes close to governing!
Boy, I really hope 2024 brings big Democratic majorities. Those R's really need to go!
I ALWAYS want to scoop the babies up. I want them too and I do know better.
I sense an artist’s hand behind that royal purple backdrop.
I thought the same thing. And the pictures, as well ...

This is also true of Joyce Vance's hens (and cat, and dog). They make the legal news much easier to take.

Chip Roy’s comment reminded me of this classic. He’s not complaining about the turd sandwich, is he?

I bet Utah had tons of stories.
Sounds liek the guy knows personally what a turd sandwich is.

Distinguishing personality traits are becoming apparent in the little-kitty tribe.
Soon they'll be out to conquer the world. Or at least try to.
Fortunately they don't have Campaign war-chests to draw from and will
have to toe the line, unlike those pesky humans who keep getting into trouble.
Of note, my latest grandchild was born some weeks ago, and is happily drawing sustenance
the way mammals are intended to. The young'un resides in Melbourne and
is learning what it's like to be the little sister of two grown, half-sibs and
a full brother, age four! Lots of helping hands.
Ah, the permutations! But for now, all's well on the domestic home-front!
Rumor has it that they'll be touring the Americas in a few months.
That solves the problems of visiting Australia for the time being!
Congratulations!!🎉

Absolutely love the photos with the backstories. The stories actually capture the mindset of what is going on in kitty box.
Now back to the news.

Too dumb to know that the term is “shit sandwich.”

Too cute and what great photography! Thank you, Tracy.
