Just a Little Toooooo Knead-y

DSC_0956
It started out innocent enough... two brothers napping belly to belly on the couch... enjoying each others' company in the late afternoon...

Then something woke Gaetano, and in a biscuit making fit, he managed to knead his brother right into the gap between the couch cushions. Poor little Luigi was too sleepy to defend himself.

Adorable and hilarious. Certainly my biggest laugh of the day.

Jen said...

Long time reader, first time commenter ... This is too much cuteness! I cannot stop laughing!!!

Hyacinth said...

Oh my goodness! This just totally cracked me up! Poor little Luigi squished in between the cushions is priceless!

The Island Cats said...

This is too cute for words!

The Townhouselady said...

Is there any way to curb his obsessive compulsive kneadiness?

It's a little out of hand no?

He's such a delicious little bugger though.

Knead-a-holic!

Darin said...

What I love is that Luigi looks like he's deciding whether or not to go back to sleep... he still has sleepy kitten eyes!

Ebony said...

This certaintly made my day. :)
Lol! poor little Luigi!! I bet when Gaetano was born he kneaded his mother a lot!

JC said...

You're going to have to watch that one ... danger in a tiny siamese suit

Oh those OCD kitties - we have one and it can be very funny (more so when he was a kitten) when they get into strange situations like this! Poor Luigi, I feel bad that he got stuck in the cushions, but I am glad that all the kittens seem to put up with Gaetano's need to knead. Hopefully he will grow out of it (at least a little) so this doesn't happen again, but really, it is pretty funny.

So cuuuute....

Caroline said...

Poor little dear. :)

Cynthia M. Suprenant said...

Looks like sumbuddy may need an intervention and an admission to an intensive "knead-hab" program. :)

Hee hee! So cute! In all my years associated with kittens and cats, that's a new one. :P

Marjorie said...

I shall kneeeeead you into submission, I shall! :)

What submission, sez Luigi. . . just lemme go back to sleep!

Rene S said...

Oh, that is so adorable. What a moment! I have never seen a kitten who was so into kneading before!

Heather said...

Oh my gosh, that is the cutest, funniest thing I have seen in a while! Luigi is the best. I agree with those of you who think poor little Gaetano needs some help...

Precious........

Christie said...

HA!!! Could you hear that guffaw all the way from Boston? That is absolutely hilarious! :D

Mrs.Fitz said...

That is just cute! Gaetano's future owners are gonna have to keep his nails trimmed We have a kneeder and it's fine as long as those nails stay dull!

BonzoGal said...

Oh man, you are so lucky you caught this moment!

Would Charlene allow Gaetano to knead her?

Annie R said...

LOLOLOL!!!! Just the laugh I needed today, thanks Laurie! Little Gaetano is just a kneading maniac isn't he? And Luigi's expression is too funny for words. Poor little guy didn't know what hit him.

Li said...

Totally adorable! I love little Gaetano and Luigi is such a gorgeous patient kitty. One of my cats is fully grown but has yet to out-grow her need for kneads and she regularly gets under the covers and kneads my sides. Love it! I call it our bonding sessions.

KatBoxJanitor said...

From snuggles to couch cushion marker.
Luigi is such a patient brudder....

But Gaetano is so fanatically adorable....

]]THUD[[

Meandering Mel said...

HAHAHAHA! That is just too damn cute! :)

Rebecca said...

Beyond adorable!

dale-harriet said...

I've smiled, I've chuckled, but THIS! I truly laughed right out loud.....it's true, the whole thing is hilarious but OH I'm glad you happened to be there. (Do you - like - shower with the camera in your hand? Cook? Wash dishes?) Aren't WE blessed that you get those moments, though.

Sylvestermiasmomma said...

I can hear Luigi saying to Gaetano...uh, Dude..you need to stop now, puleeze...ooof!

Marlene said...

That is totally adorable!

scooterpants said...

OMG that is hilarious.
I would LOVE to have Gaetano,
I'm sure he is already taken,
I have been looking for a siamesie kitten for my husband and he is perfect!

*snort

Carys said...

Little Gaetano has a future as a baker, I think! And he and Luigi are just adorable together.

Clara said...

What I want to see is the outtake of what happened when Luigi finally extracted himself from the couch. :)

Julia said...

Gaetano, get a grip! OMG! He is the cutest little fanatic! I had a little dreamsicle of a a kitteh who was a kneading fool... Gotta love 'em!

BTW, can't wait to see what Charlene thinks of Gaetano's biscuit-making!

KatBoxJanitor said...

When is the Bean gonna get to pose with the Forunato's???

That would make a beauty of a shot to the the Five and the Bean!

Scientific Chick said...

Luigi's little squished face was too much for me! Thanks for the dose of cute.

Jeanne said...

omg..that's so excellent..They really cracked me up..LOL

Mafia cat tries to hide da body of his latest hit.

Shana Banana said...

Cynthia, that's a knee slapper!
Laurie, awesome shots here. Have I told Luigi lately that I love him? Will you tell him for me, please? :)

anne bryant said...

oh my gosh too cute!!! maybe he could go to biscuit makers anonymous for his kneadiness!

HubbleSpacePaws said...

ROFL!! So typically..... well... kitten!! Great shots, Laurie!

Love and scritches to both of the boys!

Ducky said...

I love the kneadzone look on Gaetano's face in the second shot! You must have so much fun with these guys.

The Frog Queen said...

LOL! I remember when my babies were that cute. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers!

debsimoes2000 said...

Gaetano making his biscotti!!! I love it!!

Jenn said...

LOL!!

Glenys said...

This made me laugh out loud...right here at work!!!

Glenys said...

He makes me think of my kitten (well now an adolecent). Sidney sleeps with me every night...and wakes me every night kneading either my eye, cheek, nose, lips or esophagus ! He doen't stop and he kneads hard!

Anonymous said...

I love the way Gaetano's head is blurry from the kneading motion. He is really going at it.

Michelle said...

Wow. I think it's time for rehab.

Eva said...

Unsuspecting victim of a bisquit kneeding fit... LOL! And when he was barely awake too!

Val said...

Too funny. My mom has a kneady kitten too. Maybe he and Gaetano can start a KA group.

furyOO said...

cute <3

HC said...

Hahaha, really love it...

Tara Ross Studios said...

omg, that made my day!

Anonymous said...

I will accept the things I cannot knead,
Knead the things I can,
And maybe, sometimes, once in a while, ask for the wisdom to know the difference

toad said...

Sima said...

Too adorable for words. Even my husband loved that photo. Made my day. Gaetano is building himself quite a fan club.

s said...

I was away and didn't get a chance to post on this one... but it's one of my all-time favourites. I kept returning to it and giggling all through my long two weeks of conferences :)
