Sweet and Cuddly

Emma's kittens are about 5 weeks old now. They are toddling all around and starting to play with each other. They are learning about toys and are very funny to watch. They lift up their paw to bat at something, then lose their balance and fall over. They are all very sweet and cuddly. It's fun to start seeing their personalities emerge.

They are pretty popular around here with all the other cats. Bailey's kittens think that they are fun to play with and are often found sneaking in to be with them. Pippin likes the little ones too. He grooms them and takes care of them like he's their mom. It's kind of funny to watch :-).

The joys of childhood

Bailey's kittens are in the fun state of childhood. Everything is a toy and everything is fun. They play hard and then sleep hard. Some of the more fun things in the last few weeks:

1. They have learned that when they want us to pet them, all they have to do is jump on our laps. So they are seeking us out now, rather than waiting for us to pet them.

2. They have learned to untie shoe strings...now if I could just teach them to tie them again ;-).

3. They are learning to run to the door when we come home, in order to greet us.

4. They have discovered our bed and we hope will start sleeping with us soon.

5. They found the baby kittens (Emma's) and are very curious about them.

And last, they are growing more and more beautiful everyday. Here is an updated picture to show just how much they have changed. We hope to add more pictures to the kitten page soon!

Sweet Pippin

Pippin, our youngest male, is a little over 6 months old now and growing so big. He is already well on his way to 10.5 lbs. He loves to cuddle and is a total lap cat. He also loves to play and is very close to learning to fetch, he just likes to play a little in between each throw ;-). He is a joy to have around!

Little kittens

Emma's kittens are 3 weeks old now, so they are entering the fun age. They are starting to walk around and look at us when we play with them. They are playing with each other, which makes taking pictures interesting :-). And they are starting to enjoy being held and even purr when we pet them. They are all very sweet!
