REPORT #1: Star is related to weasels. He is always going under and through the smallest spaces. He still loves to hide around the corner and jump at you when you go by. Star found a box of Kleenex. He likes pulling them out and then running away with a tissue. He is also death to small pieces of crumpled paper. Our big cat Bandit has in fact licked him a couple of times so he must smell either bad or good. He is the highest energy kitten.They all found the roll of tp in the bathroom. It is very dead now.
Sun loves hair. Especially wet hair that his paws slide off. So he climbs up, rolls on the top of your head and then slides off. He is still the most outgoing of the 3, but they all come when called and want to be with people even if they are just playing. If Sunny or Moon are alone, they give a big cry and then come running to join you when you call them. Sunny lives dangerously. He ran over Bandit twice one night.
Moon is less reserved. He loves big strokes down his back. Moon and Sun have some premature ending to nursing issues. They can get fixated on sucking on anything before they crash. The good part is that they do purr when they suckle. The bad news is that they keep each other and Star up. We’ve heard Moon purr a couple of times now. Sunny still does the most.
They all passed the 4 year old child test. They had a visitor last week who is a good 4 year old. Both Moon and Sun fell asleep while she held them. (Not by the neck so it wasn’t the “sleeper hold”.) Star let her sit by him and pet him while he was sleeping. They all played nicely together and the kittens weren’t worried about her at all. And vice versa.
The funniest thing is actually our Moo cat. He has started to chirp at them. He sounds just like his mom used to. So he has essentially adopted them and doesn’t mind them at all. He even tries to play sometimes. Moon patted Moo in the face a couple of times and wasn’t even reprimanded.
They are pretty silly. And getting bigger and faster than ever.
REPORT #2: The kittens are getting big. They are an excellent litter. They like people and want to be in the same room most of the time. However, they are willing to play with each other in the same room and not demand undivided attention. The kittens love to stand on their back legs and wave their paws and be big scary monsters. This is particularly useful before they drop and attack shoe laces. The kittens do like to watch TV and try to pat the moving objects. When I let them out each morning, they all come over and want a Good Morning cuddle before eating and running like mad creatures. They are typical babies, they go hard and then go to sleep where ever they are. Sometimes they sleep with people, sometimes near people and sometimes on the stairs!
Their personalities are showing more and more. Sun is the extravert. He loves to snuggle in hair and sit on your shoulder. My daughter – the Expert, says he is not a tabby because he is marbled rather than striped. The swirls on his sides are not the regular tabby pattern. Sun likes big pets down his back. Sun is pretty much a Gumbi kitty, very relaxed and laid back.
Star is the most daring. He is always exploring over and under everything. He is the most energetic of the three. Star likes face pets while being held like a baby. He also likes sitting on your knee and watching TV. He is excellent at camouflage and ambushing you and his brothers as you go by.
Moon’s color continues to be debated. The Expert says buttermilk and cream. I’m still found of fawn and cream. He has big ears with giant tuffs. Moon likes to chase his tail more than the others. He is the Jell-O or ragdoll type kitten. Sometimes, I swear he has no bones. He is probably the most laid back of the 3 and will be a great couch pillow when he gets older.
