Why I shouldn't start posts and leave the computer unguarded

Distractions

We've had the kittens home for nearly two weeks now, and after thier initial this is big, and new, and scary ...they started to make themselves very much at home.

They discovered beds were good for sleeping in ( and wrestling on)

They found the toys, and people to play with them

And when they were too tired to lift a paw in play, lots of sunny places to crash out and sleep again.

Merry and Pippin

Realizing we now had a very real gap in our family and no comforting fur to cheer us up ...

We've been waiting for these two lads to grow up and come and join us.  Naming them Merry (the red one) and Pippin (the chocolate)  since they seemed to fit.


We've watched them grow from newborns just opening their eyes to...



Thankfully the breeder has been really nice in sending us photos of them growing up.

And soon, just two weeks we get to go and bring them home!

Haiku fun
