As most cats do, Merlin has found the laundry basket. And claimed it.
Cats, y’all…
But seriously, this little kitten – who won’t be little for long, judging by how fast he’s growing – has brought us so much joy since we brought him home. I’m grateful. I firmly believe that cats, if we listen, can teach us the value of slowing down, of being quiet and still, of observing.
And of a very good nap. (Yes, even on a busy Monday.)

I loved this, Katie. It made me laugh, and what a little cutie he is!

He is! And I suspect he knows it. 😉 He’s so big already!

And he has such an interested face–like he is curious and engaged…oh, wait, he is a cat, right? (Or, maybe he said, “Excuse me, I was taking a nap here.”) I am glad he is bringing you some joy.

Katie, he is beautiful! I wish I could have cats…allergic…but I do have two mini dachshunds. I have had cats bigger than my little female. Animals add so much to our lives.

They definitely do! And dachshunds are so cute! Annie is my first dog, and I’ve got to say, I always considered myself a cat person, but dogs are fantastic. Fun, funny, into everything – if cats show you the value of slowing down and observing, dogs show you the value of exploring and living in the moment.

He is one beautiful cat! Looks to be a Tortoiseshell by his color and markings. Cats are remarkable animals and a joy to have around us. Have a great day Katie!😃😺☕☕

He is! He’s a black tabby, I think sometimes called a brown tabby. I think he looks like a baby bobcat. 🙂 Cats are indeed remarkable animals. Hope you’re doing well!
