Getting bigger

These kittens aren't too picky about toys . . a clothespin, a towel and a scrap of paper provide hours of entertainment! All the kittens seem to LOVE old shoes.


Anything on the floor becomes a kitten toy--including Pie! Those kittens who initially hissed at Pie are now happily climbing all over him and snuggling up with him


They discovered a new direction--up. They like to scale the kennel and sleep on top. Nothing is safe anymore!

Tabby boy likes Pie!

Black kitty tries to get Pie's attention.

Lots of fun with a cheap cat cube.

More evidence for Mother-of-the-year . . .

Bye, Bye, Bottles

There's a dish of milk under there somewhere . . . .

Chutzpa

I've not let our gigantic dog Tulip get too close to the kittens--she's very, very, very, very EXCITED about the kittens! I let her have a quick peek Tuesday afternoon, and all the big boys backed off, hissing. Then out comes the black kitten, the kitten I thought in the beginning was not going to make it. He ran right up to her big nose and rubbed. Tulip licked his head (she likes ears) and he leaned into it!

Paula Poundstone endorses the 14

We've had our Paula Poundstone tickets for weeks and weeks. Eric suggested we take a kitten poster to show her, as Paula herself is up to 11 cats (plus other species). The show was GREAT!!! Paula does an incredibly convincing imitation of a cat yakking. She endorsed the kittens with the following statement: "I'm Paula Poundstone. I endorse these kittens. Love, Paula Poundstone." If I were keeping one or two , I'd definitely call one Pound and another Stone!

Weight gains

I weighed just about everyone today, and they are all about 2 ounces heavier than Sunday.


Here's a version of the poster I made up to find homes for the kittens. I put the weights on (Sunday's measurements) to remember who's who. Eric improved it with great background colors--please, Cute Overload, isn't this cute? (Bigger version here
