She’s Moki, about 2 months old now.

I’ll pull the bottom of my t-shirt up over her, then roll her up to my chin like a burrito. All the while her purring like crazy. She also likes old cartoons. She got that from me.

Awww. Kitties are so adorable. However, I only adopt older cats because kitty claws are extremely sharp and I am an older human with tender skin. But I love to look at kitties, so thanks! ---
