Kit-Cat the Adventurer

3 things I love about Kit-Cat:

1. His sense of adventure.

Unfortunately I’m forced to interrupt the adventure from time to time, but I usually can’t resist snapping a photo of him first.

2. His paws.

I could rub them for hours. Literally. Because he lets me. (I love that about him too.)

If you’ve been following along with our Kit-Cat posts, you know that this particular leg was completely broken in half when we found him. I’m happy to report he is 100% healed, and he doesn’t even limp anymore!

3. His sense of adventure.

I may never put anything in that particular cubby again because that’s one adventure I wouldn’t dream of interrupting. Would a Kit-Cat name plate on the bottom of that cabinet be too much?

   Eeee, I love the pictures of your kitty.

   How was the litter box portion of his sickness? I know my cat had a heck of a time with the litter box. Made for some interesting clean-up!

   In the first pic his markings under his nose look like a heart…so cute!

   Of course a name plate is not too much. Kit-Cat has some guardian angel that led him to your home! You have done a wonderful thing for him.

   I love this cat!!! I’ve been following Kit-Cat since you guys saw him run across the street dragging his back leg. I am so happy that you took the time/energy to rescue him. These pictures made me laugh out loud! And your narratives are great! Please label that cubbie! He is a big schweetie pie!

    It’s so nice to hear he’s so very happy and doing well with you. I’m glad his leg has healed so wonderfully. Purrfection, indeed.

    I adore tuxedo kitties and that face on Kit-Cat melts my heart and makes it sigh. He’s so adorable. Purrfect, too. A charmer and I think he knows it.

    Your pictures of him are amazing. I look forward to seeing them.

    I knew the first time you blogged about that tuxedo kitten that it found a home at TLC and your hearts. Our motto is a house is not a home without a cat and a dog and whatever else you can give and accept love from. I love Kit-Cat’s markings; he’s a very dapper dude.
    We have two Siamese cats which take ‘adventure’ to a whole other level. It’s currently 448 AM and I have yet to sleep. Guess who’s up keeping me company? : )

    What a cutie pie! How wonderful that his leg is 100 percent better and he doesn’t limp!! It amazes me how God makes a leg to heal. I usually don’t ask this on someone else’s blog, but if anyone reads this would you mind saying a quick prayer for a lady in our church named Danita…she needs a healing in her leg too. Thanks xoxo

    Kitty paws are my favorite thing. In our house, it’s an unspoken rule that when rubbing Gus’s paws, you have to say “he has the softest paws in the world.” I think it’s true

    Kit-Cat is a very photogenic boy, and I can tell he never misses a photo op! I love the heart mustache, and that he lets you rub his paws. I once had a very special cat who let me do that too, and I just loved that about him. I think putting a name plate up on his cubby would be a nice way to honor Kit-Cat, so go for it. So glad Kit-Cat came into the Palmer’s life!

    I have 2 cats myself and one of them actually was missing for a week. She just came back this morning, right before I was going to print out flyers and hand them to neighbors. So thankful!

She is pretty old, thankfully an indoor cat 95percent of the time.I hope you do get another fur baby, Maybe an abandoned or older cat you can give lots of love to?

    A name plate is brillant! He is so precious. I rescued a black and white kitty about 5 years ago. She has similar marking as your. She also has bullseye right on her chest. Like your Kit-Cat, my Zoey is so precious to me. I love your photos. I need to take more.

    Thank you so much for the constant creative inspiration you give me.

    i’ve been following kit-cat’s story since you saved his life. being a vet and having seen it happen and also done the saving myself, i was really betting you’d have to keep him. and the ones you save are often the most special additions to the family. i love the way my kitties’ feet feel and the way they spread their velvety toes when you rub the bottoms and the way their feet smell. i think a kit- cat name plate on the shelf would be perfect especially cuz if he’s established it as his, you aren’t going to keep him out of it. and with kitten adventures who needs tv for entertainment! love your blog.

    I love your cat. Our family has had 3 black and white cats and now my whole bathroom is decorated in that. Black, white and red. I love it. It makes me happy. I love your beautiful cat. He looks like Binx, that we have. Just goes everywhere and yes, you should put his name on the cabinet, I have Emilie. She’s a manx and I swear, she’s like a dog, you can call her and she’ll come, after she says, “Whaaaaat?” She listens so good. Sleeps on the pillow with me and has to touch me when she’s sleeping, will stretch her arms out. Animals are wonderful. Your cat is beautiful, such a beautiful face. I bought a luggage tag that says, I miss my cat for when I travel. Enjoy your website, signed a professional organizer, Ms. Organized, Jan Lawrence.
