#CatSky
Ren, a fluffy black cat, peers at you from atop the kitchen cabinets, her huge, green eyes seeing into your soul. Two young, short hair black cats sit on a cat condo. Beatrix sits in the tube looking off frame, and Bill sits below her on the base looking right at you. Bruce, a large blonde-ginger cat, lies on a fuzzy brown blanket with his fuzzy blonde belly showing and his feet curled up.

Here's Bruce. He smells like melted butter.

Great names, and beautiful girls.

We don't know if B n' B have other siblings or what order they popped out in, but they're obviously twins.

I have twin voids, and when they were only three months old, Beatrix knocked a giant potted plant onto her brother Bill's tail, requiring stitches and x-rays and a cone big enough for a basset hound.

I think you just lucked out.
A small, black kitten sniffs around the debris where a large potted draceana has been toppled onto the floor of the living room. Close up of a tubular bandage with wisps of black cat hair stuck to the end. There is a large cone of shame on the counter in the background. Two black kittens in a fuzzy cat bed. One sprawls on her back with her front feet in the air while the other tries to sleep with an over size cone of shame around his poor little head.

As a landscaper, I can't recommend this enough. I would also forward this model as a candidate for those light snow days:

They're SO affectionate it's ridiculous. We adopted our first black cat, Ren, in 2017, and she climbed me like a squirrel, then fell asleep in my arms when I met her at the humane society. So now we have 3 black cats and a majestic ginger, Bruce.
The adoption photo of Ren as a two month old black kitten, standing sideways with her little head turned to the camera. Her head appears to be 30% of her body, and her wide open eyes appear to be 30% of her head. Ren, now eight years old, sprawls on a rug on her side, feet in the air, exposing her luxuriously fluffy belly. Bruce, a senior blond-ginger cat, sits on a wooden table contemplating something off frame.

We got a two-pack of Cat, and they are somehow also of regal lineage.

The shit just keeps piling up so here's Beatrix, who is one year old.
#CatSky
An atrociously cute black cat, looks over her shoulder, across a table at you. She probably wants your lunch.

She heard something.
Beatrix, a small black short hair cat, looks blankly forward with very wide eyes from a lap, upon which she had just been asleep.

She's a highly skilled samurai, but you're right - she may also be a muppet.

Or might have been the fluffy one.

Somehow, Bruce also smells like butterscotch.

Here's Ren's fluffy belly.

Our void kittens are turning a year old next week!
Then/Now:
Beatrix and Bill, two tiny black kittens curl up in and on a white blanket on a love seat with Bruce, a senior blond ginger cat. Bill and Beatrix curl up near Bruce, and are now much, much larger.

Important!
Bruce the blonde-ginger cat snoozes on a folded blanket in a sunny doorway. His mane is really puffy for a short-hair guy.

Our PSL is all growed up (#CatTax):

I have been similarly compromised.

The horrors persist, so here's Beatrix.

@infinitescream.bsky.social
In a living room with a grey day out the bay window, Beatrix stretches out on my lap. She is a small, black cat, and her head is up, yawning. She is frozen in an expression like she's giving someone absolute shit.
