Sam, did you already have that rug or did you get it just for the artful posing background it gives them?
I already had it! I got it on my last Ikea run. Totally worth it too, it’s super thick and comfy, I understand why the kittens love it.

So tiny! It looks like Polk has the same amount of orange but it was concentrated in her tiny little kitten self and became more diffuse and muted as she got bigger.
Part of it’s the lighting -- she has always been very dilute, but I think it has faded just slightly as she’s gotten older. But her head markings have gotten more visible!

I'm still not sure I 100% understand what yeet means.
Despite having a very firm origin (a vine where a girl drinks a soda, yells “This bitch empty! Yeet!” and throws it into a crowd), it originally had a bunch of different meanings. At this point, the most common primary definition is “to throw away from one forcefully”.

The only things I use my full-sized oven for is frozen pizza (usually too big to fit in the convection oven) and broiling. Countertop convection ovens *rule*.
That was a feature of mine, that it fits a 12″ (standard freezer size) pizza. I tested it and it’s true!

Those look awesome! So, you already don't use the built-in hob (at least not often) and now you don't use the built-in oven either. Is it possible to get that entire module of your kitchen removed someday? Sounds like it's now just taking up space.
Yeah, the hob I actually removed completely and replaced with a custom-cut chopping board to increase my counter space. I do want to keep a range and oven in the kitchen for resale value, but I probably will get rid of the current unit, put an eye-level oven in, and put a separate range on the counter.

Brilliant! I love that you first saw them asleep in their litterbox, and when you got them to the Speakeasy, your first photo is in/near the litterbox lol T
They still love their litterbox, the little filth monsters. They like to excavate in it early in the morning and then come shove their stinky fur in my face.

Have you ever had someone recognize them as the same cats from your tumblr?
I did once, yes!

AND it looks like they're each touching their human too, which is Extremely Desirable.
One of my favorite things in the world is when both of them curl up together in my lap, even if it gives me leg cramps occasionally :D

Alas, I would want to pet the belleh and hope I would not cause offense or lose any fingers.
Deebs is really good that way -- she loves belly rubs. Polk is the one you gotta watch out for :D
