Kitten Update!
Posted by kim on June 11th, 2009

The little fluff gibbons have really come out of their shells these past few days. After rampaging around the room on their first night, they now tend to sleep pretty soundly all night (apart from the moments that they wake up and find it completely appropriate to start biting our toes or butts). Bramble is a complete terror, she’s afraid of NOTHING (except Mr.Fish, but we soon conquered that).. I think she’s definitely the more dominant of the two. Pumpkin definitely has more of a blood-thirst, Adam has the scratches on his arm as proof.
Both of them are really super friendly, though, loving strokes and tickles and always wanting attention. I’m so so so pleased that we adopted them as a pair, they hate to be alone. If they can’t see one another they start making funny meeping sounds and wandering around looking. And FIGHT! Omg do they fight… Constantly rolling around like one of those cartoon cat-fights. It’s pretty hilarious! This evening we’re taking them to the vets for their first set of jabs, with the second set being in 3 weeks. After they’re done and dusted with their inoculations, we’re going to introduce them to my parents cat, Sushi. Hopefully they’ll get on well and Sushi can come stay with us in November when my parents go on vacation.
Ohh, someone wanted to see what they’re half of… here’s a photo of Norwegian Forest cat. Bare in mind they’re only half of this breed, but you can definitely see similarities, especially with Pumpkin. You can see more Wegies on this flickr group.
