Catseniya

Kseniya's been catsitting a very cute kitten named Ike. He's incredibly playful, and only gets more and more energetic the more you dangle and throw things at him. He also produces this constant, quiet, rolling purr, like the sound of an old car idling down the block. Apparently it only shuts off when he dreams. He goes back to his owners tomorrow, and the second photo is Kseniya saying goodbye. The Happy Birthday balloons were found in the lobby of her building.




Ike is what's known as a "tuxedo cat" -- he's all black, except for his white paws and a bit of white on the chest. Very formal. Puttin' on the Fritz.


This is our friends' new kitten. They have another cat who's been grumpy since this one arrived. Like an aging soap actress when the younger, prettier costar starts getting all the good slap scenes.
