Personal journal as short story finder

Ok, friends, I am putting my faith in you. I am trying to remember the author (and titles) of a series of short stories that were published in Analog in roughly the 1998-2001ish time frame. I think I read three or four of them, published at the rate of approximately one story a year.

Plot: scientist invents cat that never ages beyond being a kitten. Never-ending kitten-itude leads to constant learning at a high rate leads to hyperintelligent kittens leads to MURDER.

Any pointers?

ETA: Digging through the link [personal profile] prismakaos provided jogged my memory about the titles enough that I was able to find it! Jeffrey D. Kooistra's Kittens series includes "Puff" [Analog, December 1993], "Fluffy" [Analog, June 1996], and "Snowball" [Analog, July 1996].
