Kit-Cat the Adventurer

Mar 30, 2012 By Layla

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!

    Love your little baby. I love my cat’s paws, too. Glad Kit-Cat’s leg healed so perfectly.

    I think a Kit-Cat name plate is a must!

    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!

    What a sweetie. I love all his markings and he’s a natural in front of the camera! You all were meant to be:)

    He’s one handsome dude, I have two tabby girls that could fall in love with such a man-about-the-house! Love his “tuxedo”, looks like he’s ready for a good time!

    He’s so precious and such a handsome little man. I love the photos you share of him. Be sure and put a name plate on that cubby just for him.

    Him letting you rub his paws…that’s love.

    That is one handsome dude. Cats are so darned kooky. Love them!

    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.

    a name plate doesn’t sound wrong to me either… but I too have a sweet cat Kocadon (coco) and well I am thinking of putting up art over her food dish….

    You did a wonderful job capturing little kit-cats personality both in your photos and in your words, what a cute cat! 🙂 I’m happy to hear his leg has fully healed!

    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? : )
    Your Friend,

    Would love to see a name plate on the cubby 🙂

    I think a name plate on the cubby is a must. Unfortunately being a cat, Kit Cat will never visit the cubby again. You know how those cats are! LOL

    We have a black and white cat named Ben which our daughter says stands for been naughty. Love mine and yours.

    SO cute. My cats crack me up with the stuff they get into.

    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

    He’s one lucky kitty! He’a adorable and such a great character! I love seeing his photos! I love my kitties too!

    Adorable! Kit-Cat is one lucky kitty.

    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 🙂

      Charming – he matches the decor perfectly! Love these photos. He’s clearly happy in his forever home.

    GORGEOUS cat and beautiful pictures!

    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!

    My heart just bursts with joy when I see beautiful kitties! I’m so glad Kit-Cat’s leg has completely healed.

    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! 🙂

    Oh my word he is so cute! We lost our sweet kitty a few months ago (she was 17!), and seeing these pictures makes me want one again. Precious!

      @Brenda…ouch. my chichi cat is also 17-18..she does not look like she is ailing in any way, but I look at her and wonder…..Trying to prepare myself for the inevitable. 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?

    Love that Kit-Cat! Put a name plate on the cabinet, that would be so sweet!

    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.

  33. Rhodna Merry

    Mar 31, 2012 at 12:07 pm

    And that would be…NO! Put the name plate up. Sweet Kit-Cat has earned it!

    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.

    Mar 31, 2012 at 12:26 pm

    OK, don’t get mad. I’m not a cat fan but your Mr Kit Cat makes me think I am. He’s precious and hearing the way you talk about him…yea, he’s cute! I think you should do it. The name plate that is! It seems fitting.

  36. Sharon

    Mar 31, 2012 at 12:33 pm

    YOU MUST GIVE HIM A NAME PLATE AND IT SHOULD BE BRONZE!!!!!

    Love that little cutie! Have followed his journey from the 1st you sighted him. What a sweetie. Well love you & Kev also. 🙂

    We love you and love you even more since kit-cat entered your lives.
    We are animal rescue peeps that love to beautify and enjoy our home. A great combination and nothing makes a home more beautiful than a grateful furry love that’s rescued.
    Way to go kit-cat for finding such a loving home!
    You guys are awesome.

    Yes Kit-Cat needs that name plate for sure! He is such a beautiful baby and I am so happy ya’ll found each other. God knew who to pair him with . Have a great weekend.

    Kit-Cat is adorable and reminds me so much of my Sam! He definitely needs his own name plate!

    How cute and sweet! My hubby and I love cats, but he is very allergic so unfortunately we aren’t able to have one. Hopefully there is a puppy for us in the future, though! 🙂 Thanks so much for sharing.

    Oh my gosh, my cat used to do the same thing in that last picture at my old house! She always jumped up and would watch us in the kitchen! It was too cute to move her!

    I remember when Kit-Cat limped into your life! I was secretly hoping you would not find a home for him because I thought you might fall in love with him if you had enough bonding time. So glad he’s all healed. He is really an adorable cat!

    I love Kit-Cat, he is such a cute kitty, and the character in his face alone says a thousand words! I just love him!
