Just after I moved, I was able to capture a rare and seldom seen phenomenon — all four of The Kids resting together. There are certain combinations I've come to expect, but it's very rare to see all four of them resting in close proximity to each other. That's just not their style except when it's time to go to bed, in which case they all join me.
I've added the picture to The Kids gallery as well as below.
If you’ve looked at Loki’s page, you’ve probably noticed that one of his nicknames is Mr. Mouth. Loki got this name because he talks at you rather than with you — and he doesn’t take "no" for an answer. In fact, Loki’s vocal habits can be one of the deadliest weapons of mass destruction when he gets cranked up.
As an offer of proof of this very thing, take a look at these pictures of Loki. They were all taken over the course of the last seven (7) years. Notice anything consistent?
I've finally gotten through the pictures of Loki and have updated his gallery. Take a look at the highlights before heading over to see all the new pictures.
I've finally done it! Yes, I finally got through all of the new pictures and updated Loki's gallery. He was beginning to hurt me on a regular basis because I hadn't gotten to it yet, so you can imagine my relief now that's it's completed.
As with all of The Kids, Loki loves his attention. Here he is prancing around the kitchen hoping I'll give him some love.
As I've explained before, Loki and Kazon will always join me in the bathroom when I'm in there. Every morning this is what I can look forward to while I'm shaving, brushing my teeth, taking a shower, or whatever I'm doing. You can tell he's a very helpful boy.
While he was lying on the bathroom counter, I crouched down to take a picture of him from below. I thought it came out well (he's very photogenic regardless of what he's doing).
When Loki plays, he plays for keeps. I was playing with him in the living room when I tried to pause long enough to take a picture. He thought the pause was unacceptable and promptly attacked my arm and leg to let me know play time was not over.
While still playing in the living room, I pulled my hand away so I could take a picture. Again letting me know that this was not acceptable, he promptly threw himself at my hand. As you can see, that's precisely what I got a picture of.
Loki is adamant when it's time for attention. If you don't give it to him freely, he'll take it by force. That includes grabbing your hand and pulling it to himself so he can rub against it. I happened to get this perfect shot of him doing just that.
Oh, and he can practically walk across the room on his hind feet, so seeing him like this is not unusual. He's the only cat in the house who is very comfortable walking upright or standing still on his hind legs to check something out.
This is undoubtedly my favorite picture of Loki. I was playing with the various settings on the camera and got a beautiful natural light close-up of his face. Now, Loki knows he's beautiful, but I have to admit that he looks very good in this picture. Notice the details in his eye color. You can also see his one white eyebrow (the other one is black).
There are plenty of other new pictures of Loki beginning with the second picture on page 3 of his gallery.
And for those of you who enjoy the not-so-presentable pictures we often find thrown in with the good stuff, here's a picture of Loki you won't find in the gallery. I promised him I wouldn't put it in his gallery since it's not a very flattering picture of him. Well, it's not in his gallery, but it's included in this article for the sake of sharing. Just don't tell Loki…
