Part Sept

After a week of living with the boys I believe I am beginning to understand their language. Here’s a few interpretations. A sharp EEK! translates to “brace yourself!!! I’m attacking”. This is used before charging into the fort, charging across the floor and then on top of the other kitten and of course, charging up my pants when I’m standing up. EEK EEK EEK!! Translates to “he’s hurting me”. Used when one has the other down and is biting him viciously on the tail. A mild Eek Eek is a greeting that means “good Morning, Big Cat, nice to see you”. They have now abandoned the need to keep one sleepy eye on my bedroom (sleeping on a stair) and instead are sleeping in splendid comfort on the big chair in front of the book shelf.
