on kittehs

[seldear]

After being here just on a week, they seem to be settling in nicely.

If there were Olympic categories of sheer cyootness, I think these guys would win hands down!



Smokey finds that Mal is an adequate pillow:

Smokey: My pillow! MINE!


Mal: You again? Okay, whatever. I'm sleeping.

But turnaround is still fair play:

Mal: Hah! My turn!


Smokey: So maybe it's not this much fun after all...
They eat, they sleep, they use the kitteh litter, and generally wrestle each other while pouncing anything that moves or has a trailing edge. I'm trying to train them to sleep in the ensuite at night, with a pillow and towel in the shower cubicle (the ensuite hasn't been used for years) but it's hard going - they whine so piteously, it's really difficult to resist...

We had a brief flea infestation, which we sprayed for and treated, and hope that that's the end of it.

And now for the gold medal...MIRROR IMAGE SNUGGLING!

Note the angle of the heads!


Synchronised mirror poses - with extra tail!

Blurry pic apologies - bad lighting and not enough time to set up the shot!

And for the piece de resistance...


Anyway, that's a rough of the last week in pics. It's been busy on the personal front...and deadly quiet on the job front. I'm thinking I might have to start taking up secretarial work again, although I'll start applying for those after I go talk with a few contracting companies to determine if they have any projects on hand in need of random programmers.

They are adorable! What beautiful little girls!

It must be easier for them to get along in a new place since they have each other.

I think it is. Which is partly why I wanted two cats. They do keep each other entertained and companioned - lots of snuggling, playing, fighting...and eating of each others' foods.

I don't think they'll be very big cats, but that's okay. We like them pint-sized! :)

They are ASTOUNDINGLY cute, omg.

My sisters say they're not kittens...they're miniature cats! And the thing is, she's kind of correct. They're cats...just sized down!

Sometimes I'm amazed that my brain hasn't gone splodey from the gorgeousness of kittehs.

And it's so nice to have warm, furry purring things try to climb into your lap, nudge against your elbows and arms, and think nothing of deciding that your throat is the perfect place to sprawl at 3am in the morning...

Okay, so perhaps not that last. (Hence why they were banished to the ensuite.)

cuteness abounds :)

[seldearslj.livejournal.com]

It does indeed!

They're beautiful!

Having two or more cats is a joy and a scream :)

[seldearslj.livejournal.com]

It certainly is. Only now I'm worried that one of them bullies the other, although I think we've decided that they pretty much take turns...

[seldearslj.livejournal.com]

That is substance enough!

[seldearslj.livejournal.com]
