the kitten chronicles - part 203

I've had some inquiries about the boys from readers of this blog so consider this a kind of update. One asked does Rooney still wash his feet in his water bowl? No he's no longer a foot-washing Baptist. But the fur-brains still spill their water bowl in protest of something - maybe because I give them tap water and they'd prefer the Cedar Springs water from the cooler. Another reader asked, "Do they still sleep on the stairs?" Yes, the other day I found them sleeping on the stairs in front of my room, one on each stair, guarding my bedroom like they did when they were tiny kittens. This choked me up. How is their destruction of your house going? Well, I no longer have a carpet in the living room - they made short work of that - and the rug that was in the hallway, as well. Good job, lads! The house plants are so scraggily they don't interest the boys anymore. They're working diligently on the 2 leather chairs and should be finished destroying them by Christmas- if they don't get distracted by the curtains. Final question.
Do they still scratch you? Not so much. Although occasionally one will notice my bare foot tapping time to the theme from So You Think You Can Dance and will plant his claws in said foot to stretch himself. This causes the Big Cat to scream. Which isn't very soothing when you're trying to have a nice, peaceful stretch. The Big Cat can be very annoying this way. And that remains consistent. No question about it. xxx dad
