Adding additional pictures because I think Busy’s markings are so interesting and beautiful 😻 and must be shared.
Busy Bee’s back markings. Her back from shoulders to butt are tortoiseshell, a fairly even mixture of black and orange fur. Her tail is mostly black but does have some orange/tan areas. From the back of her head down to her shoulder the fur is distinctly divided into halves—left side is black, right side is orange tabby. Her left ear is orange, but her right ear has an uneven divide of black and orange with orange being the dominant color. Busy Bee’s back markings.

Busy Bee the tortie/calico is crouched inside a play tunnel. Her pupils are dilated in the dim light and she looks inquisitive.

“You’ve put HOW MANY hours into your little farming game?!”

Happy #Caterday! We hope you get to spend it doing something fun and relaxing (like hanging out with kittens!).

A pretty black long-haired kitten is lying on a light blue bed sheet. She has bright yellow-green eyes. Near her is a Nintendo Switch playing Stardew Valley.

1994ish? My childhood dog, Carmel Doo. Sweetest dog ever. I still get misty-eyed thinking about her. Animal friends never leave your heart. ♥️

Happy #CatNoirFriday! Here is miss Bee, looking very dramatic in black and white. I’m including the full color version, too, because her markings are just so spectacular. ☺️🧡🖤🤍

#ThrowbackThursday takes us back to 2014. This is another installment of ‘Places Klein Doesn’t Belong.’

That’s what you get for leaving your pants lying around.

Klein the orange and white kitty lays on a pink couch with his face stuffed into a pair of blue jeans.

Good morning from Klein! Here he is getting his morning snuggles. He is such a big baby —he adores having his scruff pulled on just like a little kitten it makes him sleepy. 🧡🧡🧡

Still thinking of a name for this pretty girl. She is timid and cautious, very prim and proper. Name should be something classy, I think. 🤔

A long haired black kitty grabs at the mysterious creature behind the sheet (spoiler alert, it’s her sister Busy 🐝). A close up of a long haired black kitty looking relaxed. She has bright yellow eyes with a green center.

Also, late entry for #ToebeansTuesday! I bet you can’t guess what Klein is doing.

We have a name! For one of the girls, anyway. This one is not Callie anymore, but rather ‘Busy Bee’ or just Busy, or just ‘B.’

She doesn’t stop! She’s always causing a general ruckus. She is such an attention hog, too. 🤍🖤🧡

Busy the calico kitten stares off into the distance like the little wacko she is. She always has a wide eyed, shell shocked expression. Busy the calico kitten takes a break from rolling around on my feet to look at me. Busy the calico kitten makes another weirdo face, this time as she sprints across the floor to me.

Klein is now aware that something is going on. I left the kittens behind the baby gate with a cardboard shield, the calico kitty is meeping a Klein is going to investigate.
Klein the orange and white kitty hears the kittens making sounds upstairs and cautiously goes to investigate.

They’re here! Both a little flustered, understandably. Black kitty is timid/cautious. She likes to sit back/observe. Currently she’s hiding in the donut. Calico kitty is adventurous/brave. She popped out of the carrier & began sniffing instantly.

A long haired black kitty stands on top of a plastic tote filled with computer parts. Hilariously, from a distance one can’t make out any facial features, only her large yellow eyes. A calico kitty sniffs at an orange ball toy. She is very brave and adventurous.

Goodnight friends and felines! Klein is tucked in for the evening. Why is it 19:30 but feel like 22:30? Daylight Savings Time is hard to adjust to.

Klein tries to be nonchalant, but I know he’s happy we’re back from our overnight trip. 🧡

He’s also blissfully unaware that our little family I growing by 2 tomorrow evening…

Hooray, it’s #FangsFriday and #Halloween! At the same time! How exciting is that?!

In the spirit of both occasions, please admire our little #blackcat and her pearly whites. Can’t wait to bring her home Monday!

A black long-haired kitten lays on a green fuzzy blanket, she is mid-yawn and her fangs are looking VERY spooky.

Places Klein doesn’t belong part two! #ThrowbackThursday to several years ago when we lived in Charlotte. Klein is doing a great job supervising my partner assembling some IKEA furniture.

Happy #NationalCatDay! Klein is in fine form this morning, living his best kitty life. 🧡

Klein the orange and white kitty lays on a wood floor (almost the exact shade as his orange fur) looking back at the TV (Bird TV is playing). His front feet are curled under his chest and his eyes are bright. His white whiskers stand out against his orange coat.

We’re adopting Fiona below, but we ended up choosing a different 2nd kitten based on age, vibes with me/my partner, & soft spots for torties & their ‘tudes.

This is “Callie.” Claimed my partner immediately. She’s a calico/tortie, very sweet, and thinks she owns the place.

A calico/tortoiseshell kitten is perched on my partner’s shoulder. A calico/tortoiseshell kitten stands on my partner’s lap. She has beautiful markings and pretty yellow/orange eyes. Her nose is split perfectly down the center, one side orange and the other side black.
