kitty alert (+), new selectable protagonist -- PICTURE FIXED! 

This is Scraggle aka "Curly Joe." Unlike their brotheruncle* Shemp, they have skipped the identity crisis phase and fully embraced being a cat.

*To the best of our knowledge, these cats are not inbred. Shadow and Sugarfoot just had their litters within a few weeks of each other, and we have no clue which of them is whose mom.

At least the latest batch (not pictured: Peebles/Piebald, Arthur, Penumbra) all look unique. Last time it was three indistinguishable tabbies and my precious vagrant Umbra.

BONUS KITTY UPDATE: We saw Umbra again last week! He was three porches down from his new digs, getting scritches from a neighbor alongside another "community" cat. So yeah, he's doing just fine. Hooray for feline socialism!

Oh, to make up for the missing pic in the original, here's something even better, which I'll try to get photographic evidence of if possible:

Shemp loves Scraggle, grooms them like they were their own kid, and has already gotten in front of them to "protect" them from (harmless) local dogs. Which is especially adorable because Shemp is a complete wuss and the idea of him standing up in a fight with any move but a submissive flop is inconceivable.

Yep.
That's a cat

@001zlnv I mean, this wasn't a request for a zoological opinion. The opinion was already pretty unanimous on that one. Not like we don't have plenty of other examples to check them against. :>

I defer to your expertise in comparative catography

@001zlnv I mean, you ain't wrong. ^_^
