Three little kitties

OMG, we are loving our three little kitties. We have had them a week now and in that time they have really warmed up to all of us. This morning we renamed them LuLu, Lucy and Luna. I got tired of Talan calling my kitty, "the kitty who bit you". When we first got them, my kitty did bite me! Mason has claimed the white kitty which is now named LuLu. LuLu had her head popped into my coffee cup this morning. Mason claims he was trying to get her to look like Talan's cat, Luna, who is a calico. Alarming! Talan dropped his kitty off the sofa last night. Needless to say the boys still don't get the concept of being gentle. My kitty, which was the one no one chose, aka "the cat who bit me" now has the name Lucy. She is very ordinary and she is also the runt of the litter. She is a bit of a scaredy cat. However, I do believe she has a feisty spirit.

The kitty chores are endless. We are scooping the litter box all the time as these 3 kitties produce a lot of "yucky stuff" which the boys are not wild about tackling. I am trying to make a game out of it but the boys aren't going for it. :)

The kitties all love to climb into hair so it is bringing back lots of memories of Guiness. I never did have Misty as a kitten but I am guessing Lucy is going to be a lot like her. Only loving on her terms. I certainly don't remember kittens being this much work!

The plus side is that the kitties are providing tons of entertainment for all of us. The way they play with each other is hysterical. Being the former vet-tech that I am, I have already given them all baths and trimmed all their nails. Mason has three long scratches on his face from LuLu, which I imagine would have been far worse if her nails were actually sharp!

We are learning as we muck through this new phase of our lives. I am excited to have some female companions. :)
