What’s worse than washing your cat? Washing two kitties!

Kitten food time!

Andy and Dougy, kittens at play!

Andy and Dougy played well together. That was why I agreed to take Dougy when Tara offered him to me.

And play they did!

This is the first video of my new kitten, Andy, way back in 2011!

I learned early on Andy has a point of view…

Dougy joined Andy and me, and the kitten “wars” began!

I’d never had kittens before, let alone two at once. Andy and Dougy soon became a source of amusement and challenges. I bought a book – too late! – called “Kittens for Dummies”, and the operative word there was “dummies”! I was more clueless than I realized when it came to baby cats. LOL! 

The late Dougy (on chair) and Andy used to “argue” over who got to perch on the little red chair. The back door was a perfect place to bird watch the backyard birds that used the trees just outside the back door.

I put the flower pot next to the chair so both kitty boys had a perch. That helped reduce the squabbles. Both kitty boys love, love, loved to bird watch from these perches. 

Dougy chattering at the birds outside. 

Me watching Andy on my computer monitor, and Dougy watching Andy from the stereo. Andy’s “horns” are up!

I found a YouTube video that supposedly puts your kitty to sleep in five minutes.

Naturally, I tried it on Andy. He took longer than five minutes, but… 

…he slowly succumbed…

…to the soft purr and music.

I confess! It works on humans, too! Try it on your cats and let me know how it went.

“Acqusations” – really, I pronounce it – accusations – correctly! Wee Andrew had a bad kitty day when he was a kitten.

Andy can’t find the loudmouthed birdy…then there is a surprise answer sitting in the chair behind him. (Spoiler Alert: My late brother Dick was pretending to be a bird!)

Andy made excellent use of this new box!

If you’ve followed this for a long time, you probably have seen some or all of these videos. There have been enough new subscribers (Hello, India!) lately that I decided it was time to share a few of the You Tube videos I posted over the years. 

In happier times, there was a second kitty, Dougy, in my home, and he makes an appearance in this video. An English fan of the Andy and Dougy videos I posted on You Tube sent them a box of goodies. Dougy and Andy had a good time while I unpacked the box for them. Sadly, Dougy, Andy’s littermate, died on 15 July, 2020. Andy and I miss him a lot. He was a jokester, a comedian kitty, and an explorer, as you can see in the video.

Andy’s the kitten on the left, his first day at his new forever home. Being a baby cat, he already knew he was supposed to walk over keyboards and wipe out whatever I was working on at the time. LOL! He still does that if I’m not careful.

Dougy’s the kitten with his paw over my wrist. That was what he did until he grew too big for the spot by the computer just right for a kitty to stretch out next to his favorite human.

These photos are framed and hanging on my living room wall. I gave them to my mother to brighten up her care center room. At some point, someone put them away in a drawer in Mom’s room. I had no idea what happened to them.

After Mom died, I found these framed photos in her dresser in a drawer. It was a happy find because the photos had been in a computer file that became corrupted. They were the lost baby pictures of the kitty boys .

Couldn’t help notice I’m being watched…

Yes, there he is! Andy’s watching, watching…

…watch…um… (I think he’s losing interest!)

Hee! Hee! Predictable! You’d make a terrible guard dog, Andrew!

If you look at the last three photos, the kitty boy in the box in the photos within the photos is the late Dougy.
