#he literally has not stopped purring the entire time I've been typing this out I love him SO much

Castor: fast asleep on my stomach/arm, completely dead to the world

Me: whispers I love you so so quietly

Castor: opens his eyes and starts purring SO loudly

If you love kittens, I have good news:

I have THREE, they are are all ADORABLE, and I LOVE sharing their pictures!

(Also I heard you've been having a rough time, so fuzzy animal pics, am I right?)

My oldest is Leo

He just turned 8, he's very friendly with new people, he LOVES neck scratches and cat treats of every type, he grows a thick, magnificent fur coat with a glorious lion's mane every winter that he refuses to let me brush, the absolute dumbass, and when he's in a cuddly mood, he'll sometimes let me use him as a pillow if I keep scratching his neck. A purring, floofy cat pillow is the HEIGHT of luxury, let me tell you.

Fun fact: Leo was (sort of) a wedding favor from my cousin's wedding. My aunt was taking care of a mama cat and her five kittens, she begged my dad to take one of the babies right as we were headed out of town, Dad is weak for helping his little sister AND for cute baby animals...it's at least the fourth time we've made an eight hour (or longer) road trip home with an unexpected new pet.

Next are the twins, 3.5 year old daughters Angie and Peggy.

(Peggy has the white nose, Angie has the gray nose)

Angie's my baby girl. She's here snuggling me right now and was the other day; she's usually stuck to me like glue. She genuinely LOVES crawling under the blankets and being the little spoon as long as I don't lay too many blankets on top of her. (Or at least prop the blankets up to make a little cave for her.) She'll lick my nose and face raw if I let her; I've literally gotten scabs from it before. She chirps when I walk in the room or look at her and it's the cutest damn thing - one day I'll get a video of it. She tries to do the cute "roll over, show her belly" thing that Peggy does, but half the time she rolls off of something or into something, bless her. She greets me at the door when I get home from work and has the prettiest green eyes.

*boops her nose*

Peggy is my shy baby. Well. Really she's my DAD'S shy baby, as she bonded to him more than anyone. If it's just family at home, she's confident and flirty, perched on the dining room table or one of the chairs, looking for attention however she can get it. She loves a good neck scratch and will walk all over you and headbutt your hand to get what she wants. She ABSOLUTELY knows how cute she is, and will roll over, show her fluffy white tummy, and then STRETCH just to get your attention. And it works. Every time. She gets so many belly rubs (that she turns into neck scratches) that way.

HOWEVER. As soon as a non-family person nears the house? Goodbye, fuck y'all, see you never, she is GONE. There is only ONE time that I know of when she WILLINGLY came within sight of a stranger, however briefly, and that was after our house had been empty the entire day. (Four adults live here, and 3-4 of us are home basically all the time. Even having just 2 people home is unusual.) Also I had pre-warned my friend to be quiet and not startle our cats.

The disappearing act is a PROBLEM because...well...just look at her! How am I supposed to share her if she keeps hiding?!?

Ma'am how are you so cute stop being so cute that is ILLEGAL

Went to your AO3 hoping to find the batcrack, and instead found poly Witcher crack! Unexpected but still excellent! My fuzzy daughter also enjoyed it...or at least enjoyed snuggling me while I read it.

Oh yeah, I should try and finish that at some point. I liked that story. My head just became full of knives for a while.

And thank you! I do love writing crackfic. And kittens!
