Kittens

The kittens are getting SO BIG!!! Its amazing how fast animals grow...much faster than humans!



Interestingly enough, Mike Rowe has become the shyest cat of the bunch. He is not a snuggler which is a bum because if he were, he would have been adopted into the Shivers' household!!



Sweet soft Lucy remains adorable, coquettish and precious. She is totally working the "im a cute cat adopt me" angle.



Cleo-catra has become the most gregarious and loving kitty cat...she purrs like a racehorse now and is not afraid of anything.



We have taken to letting them run around the house in the evening while our older cats are outside on their evening constitution. Its hilarious...funniest part is when they try to get traction on the tile floor. Its like a cartoon!!! One only need add the funny soundtrack of "ZOINKS!!!" and "BROINGGGGGGGGG" to get the picture.



Interestingly enough we are not as attached to these kittens as the ones we raised last summer. I suppose its because these were not tiny babies and did not imprint with us as newborns and thus do not snuggle like our first batch did.



These will go on soon. They have already had their second round of shots and will soon go to be spayed and neutered and then off they go to be adopted.



Will we do it again...maybe. Im fairly sick of scooping poop even though I made it half the girl's job. Still, they are sweet. BUT...next summer is supposed to be the summer of dog...so we shall see.
