Charco and Mesa of the Sleeping Lion
@thesleepinglion
TinyKittens alumni Formally feral cats of the Bramble colony outside Vancouver BC. Charco was shot in the face, had skin and teeth issues, and has ongoing heart issues that require long term human care to live his best life. He also needed a friend.
Mesa and I have found a new game and he loves to play!
Mesa, this isn’t the way you sit on laps. He’s been much more willing to climb on to my lap lately. He doesn’t stay long yet, but it’s an honor each time.
Charco is so splendid that only one chair is not good enough for him. Yes, he has his own blanket on his own chairs now. It is no longer our dining room table.
No longer the biggest, fluffiest creature in the house.
Had the honor of meeting these two superstars today! Cornfields and his best friend Eden are located outside of Vancouver BC and are looking for a new forever home. He has the softest fur and is very playful. She is shyer but just as loving. tinykittens.com/adopt
You may have known that Charco is a star, but did you know he has his own entry in IMDB? ⭐️🎬
Due to some unauthorized activities (um Charco), screen time is now strictly supervised. Good thing I love watching them.
Charco has a new favorite sleeping spot. These are his chairs now. He is never on just one.
Neighborhood watch slowly turns into cuddle nap session. I’m so glad these two have each other. I was just hoping they would provide some company when I asked TK for a friend for Charco. Now it is rare to see them apart.
Caption this photo! I think this is the most unflattering picture of Mesa I’ve ever taken.
Happy Canada Day from the actual Canadians in the house. I think I’m forgiven for the vet visit yesterday. When the vet looked at Charco purring due to getting ear scritches while having urine extracted she said, “I don’t think you can call him feral anymore.” I’m not sure you ever could.
Happy Gotchaversary! How has it been two years since I brought these boys home? They add so much to our lives! Thank you @tinykittens for entrusting them to us.
Charco likes to look down on the world from the roof of the cat tree. Us peasants are there to entertain him.
Charco and Mesa were not pleased to see pictures of another ginger and tabby on my phone. I just couldn’t help but to take pictures of these cute TK alum when I visited them this weekend.
Mesa heard that with the return of Eden and Cornfield, allegations of parenthood are resurfacing! Mesa continues to deny any allegations of pawternity. He is innocent of all claims. This is a trustworthy and completely innocent face. #innocentofallcharges #mesaisansngel #platonicfelinelove
A lap full of Charco drool always helps me after a morning with sad news. Hug your furry friends for us. The world lost a few tiny kittens too soon.
Why does it not surprise me that the cat toys like look like bloody knives are some of Mesa’s favorites.
The destruction of a toy and why feathers are an under supervision only toy in our household.
Happy pride month to all my queer friends and family. The rainbow may be a little tattered this year, but like you, it is well loved! Stay strong and live as brightly as you can.
Charco’s favorite time of year is shedding season because of all the extra brushing. Yes, he was brushed yesterday, and this morning, too.
