Snowball
Location: Woodbury, Tennessee, USA
Snowball is one of a long line of the Ling family. She is seven weeks old in this picture. I found this after she and her siblings had a rather long recess. I love how she fits perfectly in the box, like it was made just for her. She is one of the sweetest kittens I have had in a long time. She loves to be petted, and when you do, she rises up to your hand and sways her tail back and forth. Sometimes I call her Cotton Swab for obvious reasons.

So cute! Good morning, TDKers!
*using her best Robin Williams’ voice*
I ‘heart’ Snowball.
Good morning TDK fam! Hope everyone is doing well.
I’m enjoying the grey rainy day!
Why, HM? It’s grey and rainy here in Fla., too - makes me sleepy and cranky!
Erin came ashore south of me and now we’re getting rain, thunder and lightning. I sure could go back to bed and snuggle with my kitties.
i have a snowball too,one of my baby girl tuxs got adopted finally,wooohooo!.
I agree with you Huddy’s Mama. I love the rainy season. It makes the air smell so good and fresh. When it is like this over the weekend, I go shopping on Friday and hunker down for the weekend.
Company that I am temping at just announced layoffs in the amount of 2200-2600 people. I am not sure if it will effect the temps but I am definitely applying for permanent jobs elsewhere. I have an interview next Tuesday at a very large video game company for an admin assistant in their sales dept. Would be a longer commute but could be a cool company to work for. Will find out next week. I had a phone interview with a large pharma firm of which could be the job I am seeking (could work from home). So, trying to keep my chin up.
Breakfast: Grande mocha and lemon glazed scone from Starbucks. Anyone up for the buffet yet?
heck yeah can i get some over here?
Boy, Karin, you sure are having a tough time with jobs. I hope the layoff doesn’t affect you, you’ve been through so much. Good luck with whatever comes your way.
Snowball is so cute! Good morning KM, Alex and all.
Hugs and Purrs, Lynn
Hi, Karin,
Keep your hopes up–the right job is there somewhere!
Hi, Kittenmaster! Hi, Alex!
Best of luck with the job hunt, Karin. You’ll find that perfect job out there somewhere!
Hi Karin - Have a look here - I see that there are several admin positions open. I’m sure there’s lot of other stuff as well.

Good luck!
Thank you for the tip, Rubia.
Karin, i admire your stamina and wonderful attitude. prayers are with you.
i love the rain. good sleeping weather.
The rain cools us down here in Houston from near 100’s to the high 70’s or low 80’s!
Snowball is a beautiful little girl!
I’m enjoying every minute of it, because the heat will surely return with a vengeance.
You heart snowball?? HM are you softening up as you get older! Just is not something I thought you would say! I echo your thoughts, though. Safe trip to Phila. Have fun, see you when you get back. Hugs and Purrs, Lynn
We, here in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, would give anything for some rain. It’s been terribly dry, lots of
forest fires, brown lawns and dead flowers. Please send some our way! Love to see a “Snowball” right about now. It’s been so hot.
what is with cats & their sleeping in a balled-up position?!?! My cats has adults still do it & just amazes me - very cute!!
Too Cute!
Thu-ploof! When I recover from the cuteness overload and have re-packed my airbag everyone can help themselves to lattes (iced and hot) thick cut bacon, eggs, fresh fruit and sliced vine-ripened tomatoes. While you all are at the buffet I will be petting this cool little snowball in the sharing circle. Take your time….really…no hurry.
Yeah, Ppearson, lattes!!!!! Here I come! Are there Bailey’s, too, or are we cutting me off?
Hello to you Great Dane!
Hugs to you and Bob. He is just the cutest little thing! Awwwww….
Awww, thanks, Bumblebee! Good morning all! How are everybody doing in Texas?
Bob’s shown me a new talent the last week or so - throwing up! He seems full of energy and eats and drinks a lot, so I don’t think there’s anythin wrong with him. Sometimes I think he drinks his water too fast - or drinks too much at one sitting - and that makes him throw up. He never threw up before, except when he had the kidney problems after eating the contaminated food.
Is there any way to make him stop doing this - or at least do less of it?
Hmm, that sounded wrong - I know you’re not in Texas, Bumblebee - I meant to ask how people in Texas are doing with the storm there?
Great Dane,
I totally understood what you meant. You are so sweet.
Sorry about Bob throwing up. My cats have had more hairballs then usual. Probably cause of all the shedding.
Good morning! No cutting off on the Baily’s not for the next month anyway. Have way too much work to get ready for the start of the new term. Hope Bob is ok Great Dane. My cats throw up too, I think they eat like piggys in competition with each other.
Great Dane, maybe it’s the food? Little Yuri threw up a lot until we switched him to food that contains less milk. Now his reguritations are few and far between.
Hmmm, he’s always eaten this particular food (Nutro Natural Choice) and never had a problem with it before, but it may be worth checking out something else to see how he likes and reacts to it. Thanks, Jamie
Awww poor Bob! My first kitty, Whiskers would sometimes gobble her dry food too fast and then would end up throwing it up. Hugs to Bob.
Hello Great Dane, haven’t posted in a while. I’ve been lurking. Anyway, you might try to give Bob many small meals throughout the day rather than the usual two, at morning and evening (if that is what you do). Also, if Bob is throwing up hairballs, you might try to give him some lubricating foodstuffs, like some olive oil sprinkled over his food.
Two of my cats are prodigious vomiters, and I have tried the olive oil thing, which has worked like a charm. I used to give all of them Petromalt but several of them went “off” the flavor pretty quickly.
Another thing that all the cats LOVE is the leftover salad dressing from my tomato and goat cheese dish. I make a tomato and goat cheese salad, dress it with lemon juice and olive oil, and when I’m done, they all gather around and lick the bowl clean. Go figure-
So, good luck to you, and lots of kisses and hugs to little Bob!
Kate
Hi Kate,
been wondering where you’ve been! It doesn’t seem to be a hairball problem, Bob’s having - he still gets a bathe every 2 or 3 weeks which really helps with the sheddind - and hairballs.
I will try the smaller meals several times a day thing so he doesn’t eat too much at one time. Hope it’ll hlp. Thanks for the advice, Kate - and don’t go disappear on us, now!
Wow, the Bailey’s is really affecting the typing today……
Sebastian is a serial vomiter. Or he was until I switched his food. Now only Maverick vomits, but that’s because he INHALES his food. I dunno why he thinks he have all the food all the time.
Baileys, amaretto, kahluah. Whatever you prefer. Mimosas too
a Mimosa actually sounds very good!
an angel in a heart-shaped box, how appropriate !!!
A sweetie in a heart shaped box — and it’s not even Valentine’s!
She’s so beautiful, but would like to see more of her!
Hello everyone! Sorry for those of you having gray days. Don’t want to brag, but the sun is out beautifully here in Michigan today, though its hot and muggy. We’re supposed to have a “cold” front move through and drop us into the 70’s this weekend. What a difference!
My folks are going to be in Michigan next week. When you see a burgundy Saturn FLY by, just wave it will be Wilma and Dennis!
I’m just off I-75-tell them to stop in!!
Awwwww
AWWW how cute =)
*scoops up little snowball to rub her little tummy*
Good morning!
Oh and their little tummies are the best!
What a great gift!!
Lovely little snowball all curled up!
Wait…this one is white…just when I thought it was black cat week…
Ha ha I was thinking the very same thing CJ’s mommy!!
me too…
I think exceptions can be made for kittens in heart shaped boxes.
I’ve been locked inside your heart shaped box for weeks
Couldn’t resist the reference
Very excellent reference. You get a biscotti.
Mmm…biscotti
Me three!
me three
I’m not awake enough to have noticed that! Had tacos and Tequila last night with boyfriend….little slow this morning!
I’m so jealous…tacos and tequila…used to be a favorite of mine. Still do the tacos!!!
Best thing - boyfriend cooked. If dinner were up to me it’d be bowls of rice krispies1
I know what you mean Great Dane. Hubby cooks for us sometimes but he likes his food too spicy (that mederterranian (sp?) heritage. My meal is usually something nukable. I had Trader Joe’s quesadillas last night. They are pretty good.
I stand right in the kitchen and watch boyfriend cook to make sure he doesn’t add anything too spicy or anything I don’t like (which is quite a lot!). I wish we had Trader Joe’s down here - sounds like a great store!
Me too! I was hoping that my little black British kitty, Tikka, was finally going to get her day of fame! :-(.
But this little white ball of fluff sure is sweet. She is really one to steal your heart!
awww Tikka needs to be on here too. how cute Tikka is=) i want to see Tikka on here. PLEASE????
Oh, thank you Missy!!! We want to see Gimpy too! Gimpy has the cutest face. (I’ve cast my 5 daily votes for Gimpy too!)
Maybe Kittenmaster wanted to use a kitty from Tennessee to honor the 30 yr. anniversary of Elvis’s
death?
Na, I think he just wanted to see if we were paying attention.
And we were!
Bad Kittenmaste - we want Gimpy and Tikka!
Ooooh, reminds me - I’ve got to go vote for my friend Gimpy now!!! Come join me folks!
What’s the address for the voting? I need to bookmark it this time.
I’m not sure how to add it - it’s on the (almost) bottom of little Liquorice’s page from the other day. Gimpy needs the votes!
it is:
