Wow! The $4000 goal, reached! You are all the most generous, wonderful people on the entire Internet! We're going to celebrate by taking a vacation!
OK, really, but not really -- as you doubtless know, we've had our vacation planned for quite a while now, so it's a coincidence that this goal is achieved only two days before we take off for two weeks. When we get back, we'll do something to say thank you - even if it's just a nice little vid...
Just a little video I hardly even needed to edit -- presented here for your early enjoyment!

We quite nearly went the whole month without producing a single video! So sorry!
2017-03-30 17:26:45 +0000 UTC View PostHello Patreons!
You're all the most wonderful folks in the world! I can't apologize enough for how few opportunites I've had this month to talk to you directly, and the fact that we're on track for a month without a single produced, credited video! I'll have a few things to say about that on our live stream. I hope you can join us for it - but as usual, if you can't, it'll be available immediately after for viewing.
As usual, the link to the live str...
We've been recording a little video here to work into a longer published video - but I don't have time to wrap it up yet. Still, I really wanted you to see this very short clip of Acro doing his oldest trick. We used to play this game with a laundry basket all day long!

Here's early access to our latest silly video!
Just a quick note: Patreon bills monthly, and therefore, we update the credits once a month, for the first video we do that month. So if you have just recently pledged at a level that puts you in the credits, expect to see your name on the videos produced next month! To be on this one, you'd need to have pledged before the 1st of February. So - if you don't see your name, don't be sad! It'll be there on the next one!...
2017-02-28 05:31:01 +0000 UTC View PostHello, you wonderful supporters of Kitten Academy!
We'll be doing the Patreon Livestream for February tomorrow, the 19th, at 10:00am Central. We think this is a good time to let people on both sides of the globe tune in! We hope you'll join us for some play with Charlie and the Faculty cats while we talk for a while about news.
To switch things up, this month we're going to try using the new YouTube stream-from-a-phone option. One important consequence of this is that ...
Hello, you wonderful supporters of Kitten Academy!
We're going to publish some compilations of the GIFs that several amazing Gifmasters have provided in the Discord chat. If you're reading this, you have access to the chat. If you haven't joined us there - why not?! It's wonderful, and we have a robot that doles out the GIFs on demand!
Some people have had trouble getting connected via Patreon. If that's you, email us at headmaster@kitten.academy and we'll ...

Howdy, Patreons! Here's a little early access video as a thank you for your support!
As most of you saw in the monthly Patreon livestream, I had asked you to chime in with your opinions on whether Kitten Academy should start doing some product review videos. So far, the response is overwhelmingly in favor of! Please, if you have an opinion, do let us know! Mail headmaster@kitten.academy
THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT!

Join us at 10:00 for some news, some Charlie, some coffee, and to find out how quickly Mr. A. can read all 248 Patreons' names!
As always, it will be on YouTube to watch after, if you can't make it while it's live.
Howdy, Patreons! I don't say Thank You for your support nearly often enough. I'm sorry for that! So, for those of you donating at the "Exclusive Livestream" level, here's a chance for me to do it, Sunday, 2017-01-29 at 10:00. The plan for this time is to try to play with Charlie, if he's up for it. If not, we'll sub in some professors at the last minute!
Please join us! We'll share an appropriate link here on Sunday morning.
For everyone else - we love...

Hello Patreons! Here's a little early access to our latest video as a way to say thanks for your support!
We really appreciate all of you, and it's been wonderful to get a chance to chat with those of you who've joined us on the Discord chat. If you haven't joined us because of technical problems, feel free to e-mail us: headmaster@kitten.academy - we'll do what we can to get you sorted!

But it went much better than it would have without all of you!
Still, we must apologize for not publishing the usual number of videos in the last few weeks.
We're working on a Textiles introduction video, but in the meantime, here's the first bit of raw footage we recorded of Chiffon. Perhaps we'll get some more here for you before the video is completed!
Hello supporters of kittens!
We had this slow-motion footage from the other day that we probably won't publish to the public. Or maybe someday it'll end up as a part of something else -- who knows? Anyhow, we thought it was fun, and interesting... though the slow motion does make it seem a little creepy.
Since it was uploaded for those of you who chat with us on Discord, we thought why not share it with those of you who don't, as well! (If you don't chat with us o...
Here's a bit of early-access to the video we'll be publishing to the world tomorrow. Make sure you have your sound on for this one - it's worth it!
Thanks so much for your support!
Hello wonderful Patreons! Here's your early access to this first video featuring Abby. Also, the first video recorded on the new camera, at 4K! Unfortunately, I think we're still working out some of the quirks of the higher resolution - like the fact we could use more light, and more cleaning...
Anyhow, enjoy meeting the new momcat! Well, presumed momcat. We think she's probably pregnant.
Thanks for your support!

We're going to keep it brief tonight - sorry. We're super busy. I'll explain on the stream. Joining us will be Yale and Dusty... and hopefully, you!

We apologize for letting the Patreon live stream slip until the very last minute, but we will not let it be completely forgotten! The live stream will take place Wednesday the 30th of November, at 20:00 central time. Since the new momcat will be occupying ...

We're working on editing the video from this evening, but this clip was too fun to not share immediately! We hope you all enjoy it. Many thanks for your support!

I don't say this often enough - but thank you all so very much for your support. And thank you to those of you who have joined us on the Discord chat. It's truly a joy!

This is because Ivy will be at an event a t PetSmart in McHenry, IL, from 11-2, and we'd like to be there for it.
Sorry for any inconvenience!
Here's the highlight reel from the video we took on Sunday, when we were livestreaming from the cat run. Incidentally, that live stream is still available in the link a few posts below.

Hey folks! The Patreon-only livestream for October will be at 2:30pm, Central time, on Saturday the 29th. As usual, we'll provide a link here for all the subscribers at that level and above on Saturday morning. For the stream, we'll go through news for Patreons and thank you all, while we play with cats and kittens in the annex. We'll publish the event on YouTube afterwards!

This is not our usual, intimate monthly live stream. This is a stream of our two new Cat Run cameras! We're just making it available to supporters for a short while, today. Most of next week, these cameras will be offline anyhow, as the new run gets repainted.
Sorry about the angles - we're still working out where to place the cameras.
In another break with tradition, we're not planning on publishing this one later for people who missed it. Just be...

One of our supporters suggested this idea a few days ago, and this is the footage from our initial test run. Here's what the new cat run section is like, from Headmaster Acro's perspective!

We took all the clips that we'd selected for possible use in the just-released introduction video, and mashed them with no editing whatsoever into one long video. It's not art, but it is almost 17 minutes of close-up footage of the new kittens, and most of it even in focus. Thanks again for your support, and I do hope you enjoy --
