Happy birthday, Basil Farrow! The cutest Scottish Fold cat in the world. He’s forever a kitten, so don’t ask his age.

Thanks to everyone who left him a message on his Facebook wall.

Did I get him a present? My fat cat already has all the food, toys and love he needs. So every year on his birthday, we donate to our vet’s fund to help cats in need.

To celebrate his special day, I’ve uploaded a new Scottish Fold video.

Watch it above and on YouTube. Basil runs with his short munchkin legs… drinks water… gently bats a toy mouse… wahhs at a party blowout… and takes a towel-bath.

My round-headed cat is such a character. Strike a yoga pose.

You can tell from the video that he’s never scratched anyone.

Want to see more of my kitty in action? Check out this playlist of his Scottish Fold cat videos on YouTube.

Also add him on Facebook, and see his daily photos on Tumblr, Twitter and Instagram (my username is lacarmina).

Remember my friends tank9 and Mary Nine? We teamed up to help raise donations on Japan’s one-year earthquake anniversary (watch us dance around Seattle).

For the past few years, this talented duo has made dance videos at Anime Expo with cosplayers. This year, they can’t be in LA without funding… so they’ve launched a Kickstarter. With your help, they can return to AX 2012 to film a dance video and documentary (one of the rewards is an autographed La Carmina photograph!) Check out their project page to learn more, and see their latest doc featuring h.NAOTO and Kanon Wakeshima.
