Happy #caturday! Tigger is quite the momma’s boy. He’ll let my wife do anything to him. On a whim she decided to try filing his needle sharp kitten claws. As you can tell, he hated every minute of it. In fact he purred the whole time. Impressive for a former #feral kitten. I think we’ve loved most of the feral out him.

Pax is eager to get her #Caturday started! Lots of shenanigans are on today's agenda.

Good morning from Pax, the gang of wandering marauders and me!

Thought I'd share sweet Oreo for Caturday, have a good one!
