warning, warning: kitten cuteness overload.

Because Secret Agent Pilgrim 101 needed a pal to keep her from being lonely.  (And from being hugged into oblivion.)

And because we have seen the mouse in our house.

That’s why we added a new kitten.  (From the same friends, different litter).

Oh, and we (I) might have been convinced into getting her because she is so beyond cute.

Piper Finn, who spends almost every waking hour either holding a kitten or crying because she isn’t holding a kitten, declared the reason for her near insanity over the kittens today because (said in a shout), “They are just too adorable!”

She’s right.

I let school slip this morning as all children were playing peacefully upstairs.

Upon entering the suspiciously closed door, I discovered this.

I too almost exploded from the sweetness.

I thought I couldn’t stand any more.

Until I saw this . . .

Surely that’s it – right?

I mean, who could even stand any more confounded cuteness in one orange kitten?

Well.

There’s just one more shot.

Just one.

See?

Don’t you just want to reach through the screen and cuddle that little fluffy ball of irresistibility?

I do.

Oh – and in case you were curious, yes – her name is funky too.

(It’s a prerequisite, my friends.)

Side Kick Orange Juice.

(Because every Secret Agent needs a Side Kick.)
