Cautious Cat Carefully Peeks Out Over the Bed

Tweet

Most people are scared of monsters under the bed, but it seems like this kitty might be a little afraid of monsters ON the bed.

You never know what you'll find up there, I guess, so best to proceed with extra, super sneaky caution. Like so...


P.S. If you haven't checked out our new navigation, check it out! It is now super easy to volunteer to drive transport kitties, and if you can't drive, super easy to donate a few dollars to sponsor one! We have SO many cute kitties coming up for transport... I'll be adding more to the page in the next day or so!

6 Signs Your Cat Loves You

Tweet

Of course we all know our kitties love us, but here are six adorable signs that make it super clear.

I wonder if my kitties do that when I leave the house? It's almost sad and it makes me never want to leave again! Maybe I should set up a camera to find out what they do when I'm gone too...

Anyway, this is a very sweet video!

Compilation of Tiny Puppies Learning to Howl

Tweet

Little puppies, little howls.

I guess they have to grow into their big-dog voices. But they sure are giving it a good shot (with some help from their people, most of them)!


P.S. Yesterday was an awesome donation day for Santa Paws Drive, but we still have a ways to go. Our goal is $6,000 -- $1,000 for each of our shelters -- and we're just a third of the way there. We only have a few weeks left... Help us make it happen, please!

Kitten Tries to Do a Headstand... Kills Us All With Cuteness

Tweet

Oscar the kitten is trying to do a headstand (I think), but just ends up being an adorable roly-poly wigglebutt instead.

His little butt just keeps flopping over his head and making him tumble around, and pretty much it looks like he just doesn't have much control over it. He's an acrobatic little ginger, isn't he?

Three Cats Tuesday: Moo and Pea's First Encounter and Pimp is Tall

Tweet

Happy Three Cats Tuesday, Cuteheads! Today we're going to update on the latest on the Sweet Pea front as well as discuss how tall Pimp is. Both equally important topics, of course.

Oh hai. I'm Pea.

First, Sweet Pea. Yes, she's still here. No, I haven't given in yet.

Second... Moo is a giant chicken and he kind of wants to meet her, but kind of isn't sure. He slowly walks up to within about four feet of her, does a little growl and then slowly backs away. He's done this more times than I can count. And Pea is just sitting or lying there the whole time, not saying or doing anything. Moo is just a big chicken (but we knew that already because he only likes his mommy).

Until last night, when something must have given him a little bit of extra courage and he actually got close to her! He snuck under the chair I was sitting on and crept over to where Pea was lying, right next to me. I thought they were going to nose-to-nose or something, but instead the little pooper scooper bit her leg! I think that's what he did anyway.

She quickly got up and ran off, and Moo just looked at me in some kind of triumph.

This is how it happened:

I like to pick on all cats whose name starts with the letter P. 

Since then it's been back to the usual routine, lightly growling from afar. Pea is super brave, though, and prances around lies near me like she owns the place.

Pimp, on the other hand, I'm pretty sure he couldn't care less about her. The first while I thought maybe he'd try to lunge at her, but lately he just kind of minds his own business and let's Moo do all the talking.

He's also very tall, as you can see from the picture I just took of him. I think he's trying to impersonate that wooden leg next to him.

I'm a little thin, but it makes my fancy features stand out. Right?

If you don't come by again before Thanksgiving, happy Thanksgiving to all of you! And happy Thanksgivikkah for all of you who get to celebrate two holidays at the same time.

But do come by on Thanksgiving if you have time... We're going to bust out the turkey costume again.

Kitten Stands and Waves Paws

Tweet

Wave your paws in the air like you just don't care!

Oscar the kitten gets so excited while playing his kitty iPad game that he stands up, waves his paws all around and squeaks with delight!

And then we all died of the cute.

What Does the Kitten Say?

Tweet

Marmalade is a tiny ginger kitten who knows exactly what he wants. He wants to eat right now, and he won't stop yelling about it until he gets his food!

Is there any cuter noise than a kitten's mew?

Kitty Cat's Amazing Somersault Skills!

Tweet

Kodi the cat loves to get all acrobatic when he plays with his toys. The simple swat and bat is just not enough fun for him... He likes to climb the walls and fly and flip!

Because everyone knows the toy has no idea the kitty's coming if he's upside down. Kind of a sneak attack.

Cat Gives Guinea Pig a Bath

Tweet

Angus the cat and Alice the guinea pig are an unlikely pair of best friends.

And not only are they best friends, but Angus helps out with caring for Alice. Alice does not like baths... except when it's Angus giving her one, kitty-licking style.


NOTE FROM CUTE: We officially announced the Santa Paws Drive 2013 shelters today! Check them out! Our goal is to send holiday cheer to animals who aren't lucky enough to forever homes yet -- they deserve presents too!

Crow Makes Friends with Nice Man and Won't Go Home

Tweet

I would have loved to be this guy! What a sweet moment.

For some reason, this crow decided he really trusted this sweet man. He wouldn't leave him alone (and even hopped up on his lap!), and kept walking back up to him, even after the guy put him down all the way on the other side of the house a couple times.

The crow's parents were not too happy about his new friend, it seems. But little crow is really trying to convince them he's made a good friend. I'd have a hard time leaving the little guy after such a sweet showing of trust if it was me!

Polite Younger Kitty Gives Up Seat for Elderly Cat

Tweet

Someone has been teaching this kitty proper manners!

Ohagi the cat was cuddled up and content in a nice box when her elderly sibling came along, looking for a comfortable place to rest her weary fur. So she did what any polite young whippersnapper should do... and gave up her seat.

And then she even checks in to make sure she's comfortable. Good kitty!

Momma Cat Teaches Kitten How to Drink Water

Tweet

There is a big bowl of water, but getting the hang of it isn't as easy as you'd think, apparently. In fact, at first chin dip it seems like it can be quite confusing for a kitten!

Why is my face wet? Should I lick it off my face? Should I go in for more? Clean up before dunking again?

Good thing momma is there to set a good example!

Silly Sheep Boops a Bull

Tweet

This sheep is determined to teach his friend the bull how to headbutt, but the bull isn't really playing along. So what we get instead is the cutest series of boops -- complete with lots of backwards walking wind-up.

I can't decide if the booping part is the cutest or the way the little sheep's back legs move when he backs up. Boop!


Thanks to Cheezburger for the find!

Ferocious Kitten vs. Innocent Pit Bull

Tweet

After seeing this video, I am convinced we should all write to our senators right away demanding that kittens be banned from your state! They are ferocious and evil and can attack without a moment's notice. And the poor innocent victims, like this defenseless, harmless pit bull, just don't stand a chance.

Kittens are just too dangerous to be kept as pets. Don't you think?


P.S. We officially have all our drivers for this weekend's transport! Momma Izzy is so happy her babies will be able to get their ride home! She is staying put with their rescuer, and the babies are off to Texas from North Carolina!

Yay! Me and my brothers are going on a Cutehead road trip!

Can you help drive us for a couple hours Saturday, please?

Cat vs. Soda Can (and an Update on Sweet Pea, My Parking Lot Kitty)

Tweet

Empty soda cans should not be left on the table, and this cat is going to make sure that's how it is -- no matter how many times the silly human puts it back on the table. Will he ever learn? Sheesh!

Or maybe he's teaching his human to fetch. In that case, well done, kitty! Looks like it's working!


NOTE FROM CUTE: Many of you probably saw on Facebook Sunday that we had to take my favorite parking lot kitty, Sweet Pea, to the vet. When I went to go feed them that day, it took a while for her to come out, and when I did finally see her I knew immediately something was wrong.

Her back paw was very swollen and she wasn't putting any weight on it. She was walking with a horrible limp, and there was a gash scratch across her nose. Oh no!

Click to biggify and see her paw better.

I immediately called her other parking lot mommy, Kelly, and she came right over with a carrier and we scooped Pea up and put her in. She stayed overnight at Kelly's and yesterday she went straight to the vet in the morning. We had to make sure she got all the care she needed!

We don't know exactly what happened to her, and the vet couldn't tell either. It's possible it was a bite. There are huge dinosaur-sized iguanas that hang out near the bushes where she does. Or maybe a raccoon, but we highly doubt that because they get all get along just fine, and always have.

Sweet Pea got some medicine to thrwart off whatever is causing the swelling and I'm working on a temporary foster while she heals. She can't go back in the parking lot like that. She needs to be able to run if needed and be fast and not hurt. Paws crossed she heals quickly. It breaks my heart to see her like this, and hurts me to know that something hurt her.

Here is a video of me petting her. She is the sweetest girl! You can hear her purr some, too, in it.


Her vet bill was several hundred dollars (whew!), but she's worth it. We got all bloodwork and testing and everything done, since she was there.

I will keep everyone posted on how she is doing. She is my FAVORITE parking lot kitty right now. She has to get better!

Cute Kitten Loves to Dance

Tweet

Pavel the kitten was named after the Pavlova, the famous ballerina -- so it must have been destiny that he turned out to be such a gifted and enthusiastic dancer!

Clearly his wallflower brother in the background did not inherit the same gene.
