We have kittens

[nanila]

It's been a year and a half since Telstar passed. About a month ago we visited a shelter and put our names on the list for a pair of kittens.


They came home on Sunday. Astro (black) and Comet (tuxie). Bonded brothers.


Lots of other stuff has happened since I last posted but let's face it, this is the biggest and best news.

We are so excited. Humuhumu has spent a month researching the best ways to socialise kittens. She's over the moon.

What purrrrty kitties!

[nanila]

They purr a lot. Their motors are quite loud!

[pasta]

Soooooooooo cuuuute!!!!!!!

[nanila]

It's been very difficult to have to leave for work the past two days. 😻

[angrboda]

They are adorable! Are you exhausted by kitten-antics yet? They are everywhere and in everything, and everything is either food or a toy or both. I used to think Luna still had a lot of kitten behaviour left in her, but then we got Holly... How did you get them to sit still at the same time?

[nanila]

They are very snuggly when they have their "down time". It really hasn't taken them long to get comfortable!

[kirundo]

OMG they're adorable! I always wanted black cats! Also love the names! :)

[nanila]

The children chose the names!

[benicek]

Definite space-theme going on here.

[nanila]

Yes, and it really wasn't my idea! It was the children.

[hairyears]

There's a definite sense of "MY chair now" from Astro!

What a delightful pair.

[nanila]

Oh yes, that whole office is decidedly theirs now. It took less than 24 hours.

[pbristow]

I, for one, welcome your new feline overlords! =:o}

[nanila]

Well, quite. 😀

[gwendraith]

Welcome to the adorable kitties ♥

[nanila]

Thank you. 🥰

[annofowlshire]

Awww! Welcome home, kitties!

[nanila]

They are very much at home now!

[cmcmck]

Kitties! :o)

[nanila]

Yes! 😻😻

[cloudwrack]

Hi, floofbabies!! ♥

[nanila]

So floofy. 🥰

[rmc28]

Excellent names and very cute kittens :-)

[nanila]

Thank you. ❤️

[angelofthenorth]

congratulations and welcome to the new stars

[nanila]

Thank you! I'm not sure there will be much else here for the next while, heh.

[lurkingcat]

Ahhh! Cats!

Glad to see that they've made themselves at home already ♥

[nanila]

Oh yes, they own the place already. 😆
