Although we only have two kittens, they aren’t the only creatures that live in the house. Even tho Miss M is much too old for it, she still has stuffed animals with names and personalities. Before the kittens moved in, Mr. S talked about them like they were alive and Miss M loved this. So she’s quite happy that the kittens love her stuffed friends too.
Here’s Hobbes curling up with Scott, the sea turtle.
And here’s Hobbes sleeping on top of Dog, the Bounty Hunter.
Neither of these photographs was staged. They just love the other animals.
I love being a single mom. When Mr. S leaves for debate tournaments to coach on the weekends, it’s just me and the babies. I get a lot less work done than I should because when the kittens lay on me I hate to get up (even when I have to pee). At night when Mr. S is home we usually shut the kittens out of the bedroom because they regularly pounce on his curly head in the middle of the night. But when he’s gone, I let them roam in the room. They find a comfortable place to sleep like my tummy or between my knees. I wake up feeling like there’s a heating pad on me and discover it’s a furry baby.
The kittens sleep on Mr. S only in the mornings when we let them in after they’ve had breakfast.
There’s a long-standing friendly dispute in our household — who do the kittens love more? We decided we each get to feed the kittens once a day so nobody gets an unfair advantage. Despite this, they go to Miss M much more often when they want to cuddle. Mr. S seethed with jealousy when the babies jumped into her lap to sleep (and ignored him). But yesterday, it was time to trim their claws. Mr. S was too scared to help because the kittens were mewling and wriggling in fear. So Miss M was forced to wrap the kittens in a towel to constrain their back legs and clip away. The rest of the afternoon the kittens moped around and licked their paws. But Mr. S is happy because since then the kittens choose him when they want to be pet.
The agency was very strong that the kittens can’t go alone — the brothers went to a home together. I was a bit reluctant but really wanted a kitty. I am totally glad that both of them are living with me because they are so affectionate together. I found them sleeping like this in the sun yesterday and couldn’t stop saying, awwwwwwww!
Every time Calvin wakes up, he yawns a very wide-mouth yawn. It looks a little like he’s screaming except that his eyes are so sleepy.
Miss M made us a kitten house. We love to chase our whistle ball into it and pounce at each other out the door. It’s also fun to look thru the windows and swat each other. We like the crinkly sound it makes. Sometimes we curl up in the house and hide so that we can surprise somebody who careless walks near our front door.
Iz this house for us?!
Iz just my size.
Hey! I wants in.
Nowz I’m the king of the house.
Miss M says if you want to make your own kitty house, check out her crafty blog, DIY-namite.
The internet says that cats rolling over on their backs is “probably the friendliest thing a cat can do. It’s her way of saying I trust you.” You better believe I was really happy when I Calvin woke up from his nap and said, “I trust you Miss M.”
Calvin actually loves his tummy being rubbed. His fat little kitty tummy!
