I’ve named my new kitten “Boomer”. Since young cats’ genitalia are kinda obscure, at first I wasn’t sure if he was a boy or a girl. Ooh. Since the Battlestar Galactica character after which I named him is, for me, a cipher for various kinds of sex/gender and human/non-human differentiation, this is only fitting. And of course, in the original series Boomer was a guy, and now she’s a woman. Or a toaster. Or something.

Strangely, Aussies also refer to kangaroos, especially the big fellas, as boomers. Has she started bounding across the room and boxing you to the floor yet? Very cute… hope you guys are well.
Oh yeah, forgot! Happy New Year/ Kong Hee Fatt Choy to you all! Hope the Fire Dog fetches joy to your year! And doesn’t maul your cat! ;)
Awwwww. What a cutie.
Kung hei nei!
Have you seen ep 2.13 where the pregnant Boomer violently headbutts the glass? When kittens do that it’s cute.
Yeah! I can tell you, my Boomer’s hell violent at the moment, but not really into the self-harm thing — more like Ben-harm. Must. Flay. Skin. From. Flesh.
Aw, he just started with the affectionate heat-bunting thing. Apparently he thinks I belong to him now.
