He crawled onto my lap and snuggled with me for half the time, only getting up once to stretch, then came right back to me. Anna fell in love with the small baby kitties that had a lot of energy. They loved to play, besides a few that were really sleepy. I believe it&#8217;s name was Jack-Skellington. That one loved to play with her. She snuggled with that one for awhile, and they all got very sleepy. I temporarilly tamed the cat in charge, it&#8217;s name being Carol. Carol sat on a high perch, watching all the other cats. She makes sure everything goes alright.<\/p>\n<p>There were a few very crazy cats all around, one of them being Silvermist. She was a riot. She ran around, and was very wary of me at the start, but very quickly warmed up to me after I started petting the other cats. I think they all started to trust me a little when I started petting all the other cats. We met all the cats and snuggled with them, and will definitely be back to visit them again.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, for your time, you get to see the rest of the photos we got.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-81 gallery-columns-5 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/brody\/2025\/10\/20\/the-kitty-corner\/a72788a5-4312-47ed-90f4-b30dbd2fe547_4_5005_c\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/brody\/files\/2025\/10\/A72788A5-4312-47ED-90F4-B30DBD2FE547_4_5005_c-150x150.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Carol Cat\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-96\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-96'>\n\t\t\t\tCarol\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/brody\/2025\/10\/20\/the-kitty-corner\/c31b5ccc-e358-4e00-8673-18febfdf6ec4_4_5005_c\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/brody\/files\/2025\/10\/C31B5CCC-E358-4E00-8673-18FEBFDF6EC4_4_5005_c-150x150.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Anna and Jack-Skellington cats\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-90\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-90'>\n\t\t\t\tAnna and Jack-Skellington\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/brody\/2025\/10\/20\/the-kitty-corner\/e385d275-701b-4f95-ac56-cf357430e672_4_5005_c\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/brody\/files\/2025\/10\/E385D275-701B-4F95-AC56-CF357430E672_4_5005_c-150x150.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Me petting many cats.\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-83\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-83'>\n\t\t\t\tMe petting many cats.\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/brody\/2025\/10\/20\/the-kitty-corner\/d7fa09c8-ffe1-4b4e-8b0d-46d51a2296ec_4_5005_c\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/brody\/files\/2025\/10\/D7FA09C8-FFE1-4B4E-8B0D-46D51A2296EC_4_5005_c-150x150.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Anna and I petting cats.\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-87\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-87'>\n\t\t\t\tAnna and I petting cats.\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/brody\/2025\/10\/20\/the-kitty-corner\/5e2524f7-e67f-44c7-8896-6567867e52a4_4_5005_c\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/brody\/files\/2025\/10\/5E2524F7-E67F-44C7-8896-6567867E52A4_4_5005_c-150x150.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Me petting Boo Bones.\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-88\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-88'>\n\t\t\t\tMe petting Boo Bones.\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Friday night Anna invited me to hang out on\u00a0Kitty Corner.
