Do cats have some sort of kitten fur?
I wanna say that's the rough undercoat, but that is purely ex cloaca.
Simon: I swear when it's appropriate. Kaylee: Simon, the whole point of swearing is that it ain't appropriate.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You see how it's all sticky outy? I'm no cat person, but the exacerbated startled vulnerability quite gets to me.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Dear Cheetah Cubs,
If you happen to see Nutty heading your way, you might want to hide. IJS.

No! Don't run for the ...
Damn. Squash courts look safe, but little did the wee things know.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
How late can UPS deliver something? (Tracking says my package is out for delivery. And no "delivery attempted" note has appeared.) Last time this happened, I looked it up on their website - I think they said they can deliver as late as 7:00 PM. Anyway, last time I used UPS, the package arrived at 4:30. Now it's 5:35. I wonder if I should give up and go home....

KITTEN FACE! WANT!
I'm not going to watch any dvds this weekend.
I'm going to drive fast and go have dinner at a tiki restaurant and then drive fast again.
Why isn't it tomorrow yet?

Careful with the fast driving, or you may end up with an exciting weekend like mine.
The krav black belt test is this Saturday. I'm honour, duty, and curiosity-bound to watch. Not the whole thing, since it's going to be at least 8 hours, but still. Everyone higher belted than me, pretty much will have tested for black belt once this is done. I won't get another chance to watch should (krav willing, health holding) I go the same way.

Kittens start out very fuzzy and often (but not always) get sleeker and sometimes coarser fur as they grow up. Devi still has an awful lot of cobwebby kittenish fur. It makes her squoogable. I think it may indeed be undercoat fur that gets covered with overcoat, but I'm talking out of my ass now.
Someone needs to invite ita to watch when a kitten first learns to hiss. They tend to go overboard for a few days once they figure out how to do it at will. They roar around hissing fiercly at anything and everything and sometimes startle themselves with it and then poof up all fierce and.... HISS MORE. ita, you'd be bowled over by the wee ferocity and CUTE.

By the time we got our cat, way back when, I think it was past that point, sara.
I was around when cousins got theirs, though, and it was an adorable fuzzball of ineffective savagery.
Not sure what happened to it in the end. I hope they just gave it away.
