Cute kittehs are cute!

And we have yet to put up our Christmas tree (which has no name. It's just 'Christmas Tree').

We have to find a way to kitty proof it, however, since the three-year-old likes to get into things. We stopped into a natural pet store earlier today, and they may have something in there that will deter climbing.

Good luck keeping your tree safe!

Eeeeeeee! Aren't they adorable with their little name tags! *is ded from cute*

I don't remember our kitties bothering the tree. I was looking back at old Christmas pictures, however, and was greatly amused to realize that when Katie was 13 months old we put the *tree* in a play pen to keep her away from it. ;)

I really, really hope your camera is named after Dr. Reid. ;)

They are devastatingly cute. *^^* And so is the mental picture of your tree in a playpen!

And yep, that is indeed where our Spencer's name comes from. Back when we got him, I was reading Criminal Minds recaps that referred to the show's way of filming Reid's perspective/brilliance/intuition as "Spencer cam", so it seemed the thing to do. ^_^

very cute kittens icon. I hope you use them often :) so dignified, both of them. Something about kittens and baby animals that make one melt. Aww.

*g* Jinksy is only dignified in still photos, I'm afraid! But Claudia has actual dignity.

Awesome cats. I think they really lucked out, getting humans like you. :D

Here is my template for embedding photos:

(EDITED to make the code visible. All the [ ] are actually the triangles that are next to the M key)

[table class="image" style="float: [RIGHT, LEFT OR CENTER GOES HERE"]
[caption align="bottom"][b]CAPTION GOES HERE[/b][/caption]
[tr][td]PICTURE INFO FROM THE SITE IT'S HOSTED ON (LIKE PHOTOBUCKET) GOES HERE
[/td][/tr]
[/table][p]NEW PARAGRAPH STARTS HERE

I hope that helps. :) I can give you more info about hosting pictures elsewhere if you like.

They're such amazing little beasties! *^^*

Thank you! I'll give the code a test run when I get home from work. ^_^

You're very welcome. I've had lots of success with it. :)

Seriously, I think that domesticating cats is one of the best things humanity ever did.

I am having...partial success! I made a private post on Dreamwidth using this code (only with HTML brackets instead of the squared ones):

[table class="image" style="float: [CENTER"]
[caption align="bottom"][b]Claudia[/b][/caption]
[tr][td]https://www.dropbox.com/s/ozzlsck7a1kfvdl/2013-10-20_18-26-59-62.JPG
[/td][/tr]
[/table][p]Test post of a pic of Claudia!

and the post shows the caption and bottom text, but shows a (working) link to the image on Dropbox rather than embedding the picture. Can you tell from that what I'm doing wrong? (If not, no worries!)

I can't get over how wonderful it is to finally be living with cats again. I've missed it so much. Being able to have cats that my husband can live with (allergy-wise) and having ours turn out to be these particularly clever, darling cats? It's practically miraculous. *^^*
