kellibelli. I liked the weapons-grade kitten… but hands down… I saw your tedandmurphy and not only said ‘aaaaaaawww’ but made the full ‘aaaawwww’ face and it stuck. That’s ADORABLE!! ---

Everyone had such ADORABLE kitties. _warm fuzzies_ I can’t believe **Phlosphr** hasn’t been here yet! 🙂 **maleinblack** I love those cats! They are beautiful. ---

If **Phlosphr** and **dwyr** ’s kittens were both placed in the same room, not only would the level of kitten cuteness factor raise to lethal levels, but it would linger on for weeks later. People would walk into the room and “awwww” without even knowing why, and feel compelled to go find some yarn to dangle temptingly. That’s how cute they are. ---

Good grief! Between this thread and the [Walnut Brain Kitty](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=203516) thread there are a passel of seriously adorable felines! Everyone should be proud. AntaresJB, he was about five weeks old in that picture, he’s about seven weeks now. But still just as cute. Boscibo, nope, I saw him first. 😉 And I have to be truthful, as cute as my little guy is I think Phlosphr’s kitty beats him by a whisker as far as the Awwww factor. ---

ENugent, I must say that your Rhodium reminds me so much of my late [Dwyr](http://home.earthlink.net/imagelib/sitebuilder/misc/show_image.html?linkedwidth=actual&linkpath=http://home.earthlink.net/~dwyr/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/seniorcat.gif&target=tlx_new), especially when he was young, that I’m getting all teary-eyed.

Thank you all for the links! My niece and I spent a very pleasant hour plus visiting and OOOHing over the darling kitties. I was, btw, amazed at how quickly niece took to the routine of clicking on link, waiting for a picture to load (I’m on dialup), then closing window that window and finding next link – this is a child from a non-computer household, I don’t think she’d ever used one before, but I guess browsing skills have become an embedded meme now. Ino, special thanks for that Rate the Kitties site – she spent over an hour there. Turns out she’s a hard marker, except all black & white cats got really high scores. (No prize for guessing what her own cats look like.) ---

Here is [Sputnik](http://santacruzblues.net/sputnik/) back when he looked like an ugly little alien and not the seventeen pounds of pure cat muscle [he is now](http://santacruzblues.net/gallery/airpurifier/IMG_2419) . And this is [little Thor-Cat](http://santacruzblues.net/gallery/numbertwo) who decided to show up at my front door a couple weeks ago. We adopted him out to a very nice family, because he was upseting our dear Sputternuts.
