This is Jeopardy Miles!
Mayim Bialik shared a rare photo of her 17-year-old son on Sunday as he lounged on a couch at home with their black and white cat.
“I mean, those toes… 💫,” the “Jeopardy!” host, 47, captioned her Instagram post, referring to their pet’s outstretched claws.
Miles’ face was obstructed by his cellphone, which the teen held in one hand as he patted the cat with his other.
He was dressed casually in khakis, a navy blue hoodie and black-frame glasses.
Bialik shares Miles and younger son Frederick, 14, with her ex-husband, Michael Stone, to whom she was married for 10 years before divorcing in 2013.
The former couple cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for their split at the time; however, they continue to co-parent their children.

The “Big Bang Theory” star even spent Thanksgiving with Stone and his girlfriend in 2018.
“We are a family even though we are divorced. I want to witness [our sons] eating the foods we make them and it feels good to sit at a table with them and their father,” she wrote in a blog post for Grok Nation that year.
Bialik does not frequently share content of her kids online, though she did post a photo of one of her sons during a family trip to Disneyland last August.
She has also discussed the hardships of motherhood.

In 2017, the “Blossom” star reflected on when she had her first baby and quickly discovered that other moms were competitive.
“Everything was a competition,” she said in a video posted to Facebook. “These were not my people. I left in tears. Moms are so competitive! Why is that? Is it because we’re just catty and combative by nature? Is it because we’re bored and we have nothing better to do?”
But Bialik gave a guess as to why mothers tend to face off against each other.
“I think that competition comes about because we are the first generation of women who were raised after the revolutionary turmoil of the women’s movement and we’re the first generation who was constitutionally raised to believe that we can and should do it all,” she said.
The Emmy nominee has also had to deal with mom-shamers, as she faced backlash for breastfeeding her younger son until he was 4 because she waited until he self-weaned.
She shared that she cried from the outpouring of judgment she received.
“People laughed and sneered, but it wasn’t wrong,” Bialik told InTouch Weekly (via HuffPost) in 2014.
“Just because you do something your way doesn’t mean you can judge people who don’t. … I don’t think I’m a better mom, and my kids aren’t necessarily better off than yours.”
