Attention, Stupid Humans
Oscar Madison, Impossibly Cute Kitten here. Disregard the numbskull dog in the background.
I understand that some of you are skeptical of the Girl Human’s claims that I’ve become enormous over the course of the four weeks that she dared stray from the boundaries of my benevolent control. She may be a stupid, easily manipulated human, but she is a decent judge of kitten growth. My doctor confirmed it at my check-up on Friday. I have grown to a massive 3.8 pounds. That’s right. I tripled in weight while she was away. Behold my massive size.
Wait…bet you can’t catch me! Watch my speed! You’re in awe of my feline reflexes, aren’t you?
I’m well on my way to world domination. You have been warned. Stupid humans that you are, you’ll chuckle and disregard this warning. Which all fits in with the plan. Now begone. I have ankles to bite.
Stupid humans. Bring me food. Pet my belly. Go away. Come back. Feed me.
Ya know, for all his evil world domination plans, young Oscar seems very pleased to have you home. He looks great. He’s one lucky kitty to have found you.

Oh those wicked cats — they really have us at their mercy. Oscar is just soooo cute.

Ooooh, Oscar is SO cute! I’ve always wanted cats, but am dreadfully allergic. Even went through allergy shots, and that didn’t work either. Darn it.
Posted by: Amy
So little, and so aware! I’m so happy the dogs gave up their apetite for cats.

Any news on the virus? Does he have it/not have it? It sounds like he’s definitely THRIVING. How wonderful. Did he even remember you? I have all these QUESTIONS!

Kittens are great! Glad you’re enjoying yours.

I’m impressed at how much he looks like my kitten (now nine months old and close to 8 lbs), from the shape of the white face splotch to the raccoon tail. Does Oscar have ear tufts?

I am utterly powerless in the face of all that cuteness.

Adorable. And I will pay attention to the world domination warni–oh, who am I kidding? He is too cute to plot anything like that!
Posted by: Jen
Soon you will be bigger than the dogs! Oh what a crazy world!

When most pictures of a kitten have motion bluriness: you know they’re thriving! As far as Oscar’s plan for world domination, the world might be a better place with Oscar running the show.

We have two Iggy’s and they love to be under the blanket like yours. In fact if I can’t find them, I have to pat all the blankets that are on the couches. Your kitty is adorable.:)

Love the come-here-go-away-come-here-go-away thing. Very feline.
Damn, he’s adorable. How do you stand it?
Posted by: Lee Ann
Oh, I’m sooooooooooooooooo glad you’re back. You’ll never guess who I met tonight….Mr. Colorado. He’s in NYC.
Anyway, more about you. I’m sooooooooooooooo glad you’re back. When are you going to re-enter MY atmosphere??????? Huh? Hmmm?

OMG … Oscar has really grown to such a big size! Adorable! Not one picture is clearly focussed … that shows how energetic this little guy is! Thanks so much for posting his pics!
Posted by: Agnes
Cari, you guys have done such a great job with him! I cried when you posted his first picture – he looked so forlorn! But look what love can do!

Awww. I want a closeup of the “numbskull” dog. (He doesn’t make me sneeze.)
Posted by: Cassie
Um, I don’t want to alarm you… but have you heard of Clifford the Big Red Dog? Tiny puppy, grew to be bigger than a house? At the rate Oscar’s growing…just sayin’.
And tell Diego dressing up as a ghost and trying to scare a caffeinated kitten just doesn’t work. But I’m sure he’s realized that by now.
Posted by: Iris
Oscar is looking fantastic. He was so obviously meant to be yours he’s thriving!
Posted by: janine
What a cuuuu-teeee! And so big!
Posted by: Carole
lol — how can anyone ignore the numbskull dog — they are so hilarious and totally unselfconscious of their foolishness — love it! and i can breathe around ’em (unlike cats ;(

Um, how do the dogs fit in to his world domination plan? Are they co-conspirators, or enemies in his quest? 🙂
Posted by: Libby
Diego looks like he is hiding from the big scarey kitty. 😉
Posted by: Laurie
‘Which dog? Where?’ I thought, but I see him now. I’m always surprised by how small your dogs are, they look like they should be at least twice as big (there was a gentleman in my old neighborhood with a ‘hazewindhond’ that looked just like Diego who was about hip height for me, and I’m 1.75m). But what do I know from dogs? Now cats I know, and I see that Oscar is a fine specimen. Probably impossible, but fine nontheless. And heavy!
And welcome back, Cari!
Posted by: marrije
OMG how cute, makes me want to adopt another one – and I already have 3!
Posted by: Marie
Sooooooooo cute! And yet, only one-fifth the size of Mooky. Fortunately, Mooky is content with (though extremely skilled at) couch domination.
Posted by: alison
What a cutiepie! And the dog in the back is great! I first came to your blog because if it’s name. My minpin steals my yarn while I am using it. I could relate. All of your babies are very cute! 🙂
Posted by: baast
that cat is so grown he’s bowlegged! is that still an owie on his nose?
Posted by: e
SOOO CUTE! You have done a great job nursing that kitty back to health. And despite the gender confusion, the name is so perfect 🙂

Oscar: how’s the “unraveling of everything knitted” and “getting in the way of everything (reading the paper, reading books, knitting (oh the fun yarn tails!), sitting underfoot (that’s the best place to stop for a bath) and batting random things from high places)” going? I trust that you are doing your part in creating cute distractions; I believe kittens and cats like you are great at teaching people like me to take life a leetle less seriously. Well done chap.
Posted by: Kristen
I love that he’s in constant motion! Have fun! Enjoy him while he’s tiny and shameless!
Posted by: marissa
Huge!!! And deviously endearing and cute. His plan will definitely work.
Posted by: Sneaksleep
Ohhhh kitty cuteness…yeah, right. World domination. They do that….It’s “my” world and I allow you to live in it as long as you feed me, play with me, let me wash you, don’t touch me, love me, love me, love me? What? ME? purrrrrrrr.
(((hugs))) (glad your retreat was profitable)

Awww… He’s such a charmer! (Orange cats are the best kind. Just ask Orville & Wilbur. They’ll tell you.)
Posted by: Anne
not a kitty person (though I went to a party a friend had last night when Tiger became a “new” man, and joined the Eunuch religious order 🙂 but those are damn cute pictures! and even funnier quotes!
Posted by: stinkerbell
He’s HUUUUUUUUGE!!!! My god, he fills like HALF A CHAIR! I am totally impressed.
