Well, they aren’t at their nuttiest here, but I did promise some kitten video. [4.4MB .mov] Again, sorry it’s so craptacular. I’m not sure why they love playing on the ramp for the litter box. I know the smaller ones like to dive under the ramp. The big one doesn’t fit. I tried to induce some halloween cat without luck. Even with Tak standing there looking all scary. Oh yeah, and more pics in the flickr account too.

Growing into little terrors
The kittens have definitely turned into little bundles of fun. They wrestle, play with toys, bite each other, purr, do halloween cat, and sleep in little piles. They’re eating crunchy food now and going in or slightly around the litter box. The one grey boy is still a lot bigger than the other two. He looks like he’s two weeks older than the others. Mama is also blossoming. She’s exploring the house more. This morning she was running around like a crazy cat and even sort of played with Tak for a bit. Tak still isn’t quite sure how to play with her without provoking the sharp bits. She’s quick and good at dodging them though. More new pictures here.

“I’ve heard people say, ‘If you eat dairy, you contribute to the problem as much as any meat eater,'” he says, adding that such a line of thinking puzzles him. That guy needs to read some. Or maybe he actually knows where the dairy cow retirement farm is.
And then there were three
Well, I thought if the white kitty made it through the first week he’d be okay, but the little guy never developed like the other ones and finally died last night. Poor thing. At least he seemed to enjoy his short little life. So far, he’s the only one of the kittens I’ve heard purr. I let the kitties run around outside their box a little now. The grey tabby with the angel wings had overtaken the brown tabby as the fatass. Actually he’s the only one who can’t climb out of the box on his own yet. When the other two get out of the box, they like to practice running. He is perfecting that funny sideways walk that usually accompanies halloween cat. The smaller grey tabby is the only one who has shown an interest in mama’s food. He drinks out of her water bowl and munches down on her crunchies. That seems to freak her out a bit. But at some point she’ll make the connection: more crunchies = less nipple. Soon I’ll pop up another video. They’re much more fun to watch now. New photos are going into my flickr account.
Oh yeah, yet another cat has shown up at my house. this one isn’t feral. It’s a big fluffy brown tabby with white feet. It was going to try and eat on my back porch but one of the grey boys was having none of it. So I put a little food for it on the front porch. The kitty let me pet it right away, so this cat is either lost or dumped. Oh, maybe it’s my neighbor’s across the street. She said she had an older cat. I’ll have to check. I like that option best.
