For the first time, in a very long time, we're kitten-less. Even though Charlene had a great time with Buster and Susanna this past week, I think she's really enjoying our quiet home.
When there are kittens running about, doors are closed to keep them in or out. Charlene likes the freedom to roam about the house whenever and wherever she wants.
She's reclaimed some of her favorite haunts and has been napping in more visible spots. There's no need to retreat under beds if there are no kittens to disturb her nap.
So, for at least a few days, we're going to be kitten-less. The past few litters have over-lapped, and I think Bean has earned a little time off for good behavior.
Not too long of a break, but just a few days.
We'll peek into the foster room next week to see if there are any babies in need.
For now, it's just Bean.
Bean deserves some time off for Great Behavior ;o) Hope you get a rest too Laurie, happy Halloween everyone!
ReplyDeleteShe's such a beautiful lady!
ReplyDeleteBean is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteWhat breed of kitty is Bean? She's just so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLaurie, I love the itty bitties, but you could do a 'blog just for Bean. She is such a beautiful girl!!! Tell her to enjoy her naps.
ReplyDeleteI love her finger floofs in these shots!
ReplyDeleteBean has such innate dignity when posing -- and it's clear she loves posing, so it's a win/win all around!
ReplyDeleteLooks like Professor bean is enjoying her Fall break!
ReplyDeleteWe enjoy having a break some times too....enjoy the time off and gear up for the next crew!!
ReplyDeleteShe's so amazing with the kittens it'd be easy to think she'd be fine with them 24/7/365, but we all need a break sometimes however much we love our work. I'm sure she's no different.
ReplyDeleteSo, Ms. Bean, rest up and roam around to your heart's content, and look forward to getting your paws on some new littles.
Bean, your are one amazing lady.
ReplyDeleteYou have earned the break :D
Dun worry tho. There will be more bebbehs in need of your guiding paw xxx
oh...Reeves is just absolutely in awe whenever he sees your beautiful face :D
"Just" Bean?! Bean is a bunch, just as herself. What a beautiful gal...
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing Miss Charlene with us. Kittens are fun, cute and delightful but they grow up to become cats. Let's hope they are as beautiful as The Bean!
ReplyDeleteCharlene Butterbean should get a few uninterrupted naps and perish the thought of ANY door being closed to her. :-)
ReplyDeleteShe's a beautiful girl and probably needs some time in the spotlight. I'm sending her lots of head kisses from Oklahoma.
Such a beautiful girl, and your photography is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteOh Bean, how I love you...
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your vacation.
Aw Bean. You are so lovely. Look at those littel tufts on your paws. Such a beauty, you are. Hugs, Deb=^..^=x4 and a few more.
ReplyDeleteBean time? Of course - she really earned it over the past months! I hope she enjoys her rest and relaxation! You too, Laurie and Craig!
ReplyDeleteWhenever you open your home to visitors, it's always nice to have some time to relax and rest when they've left. So enjoy your quiet time, Charlene, with your mom & dad. And when the next visitors are ready for Miss Charlene's Finishing School, you'll be ready for them.
ReplyDeleteSweet Bean, enjoy your well-deserved vacation!
ReplyDeleteOh, it could never be a case of "just the Bean", there's nothing "just" about her. We are honoured and privileged to get some quality Bean time. xo
ReplyDeleteToe floof!!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Bean. Enjoy your time off. You more than deserve it!
ReplyDeleteIt has been said many times but bears repeating - Bean is BEAUTIFUL!! She is definitely a "Fall" on the color wheel. Or maybe that is just enhanced by your colorful decor or spectacular photography. Whatever - Bean is BEAUTIFUL and has earned a break (as have her human companions).
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the run of the house Ms Bean.
Miss Bean has earned a break for many reasons!
ReplyDeleteThe end-to-end litters of students is the biggest of them. And the hard work of tutoring while also questing for resting places can drain a furry girl!
Laurie, I hope you and Craig will do Charlene's fans a favor and give her some head-bonks or ear rubs....
I like that little stone squirrel snorfing her tummy!
ReplyDeleteDitto Alison....no kitties around, but that little squirrel wants to cuddle.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your peace and quiet, i'm sure it won't be for long. I think the mumster would prefer the pitter patters of kittens :)xx
ReplyDeleteAwww, majestic Bean! Enjoy your break, sweetheart! (But we are looking forward to a new batch of adorable babies, of course!)
ReplyDeleteAnon,, we don't know for sure because she was a shelter kitty, and we don't know her history. She looks a lot like a Birman,, but who knows...
ReplyDeleteThose are some great Halloween portraits of Charlene. She does love her time in front of the camera.
ReplyDeleteBean, you are so gorgeous and you have a heart of gold. Stunning girl you are and oh so photogenic! You have more than earned your little break. You rock!
