Lacey's kittens: six weeks old

Hi everybody! We are Kona and Maui and we are big enough now to take over this post! We learned to do a lot of things this week! And here are some of them:



We learned to climb to the top of the kitten tree, straight up the pole!



We got cuter!



And sillier!



Here is a video of us playing.



This week we learned to find unusual places to take naps!



And we get naughty when Mama tries to give us our baths!



We are also eating wet cat food four times a day with gusto, and using the litter box all by ourselves. We still nurse sometimes, but Mama doesn't put up with it for very long.

Our foster mom is taking us on expeditions outside of our room and boy is that fun! Mama worries at us until we are safely back in our room again. This picture shows us in the top of the kitten tree, our favorite place to take our morning nap. And being six weeks old is so very exhausting! So we will say goodnight!

When they are 8 to 9 weeks old they will be ready to go back to the shelter for their surgery and adoption. Then I guess I'll start all over again!

And the little black one reminds me of my Felix - rescued him from a grocery store parking lot last summer and he's growing into a beautiful cat. Thanks so much for sharing. I honestly think that kittens have to be the cutest baby animals...
