Update on the kitten formerly known as Arya!
Okay, Arya officially has a new name! (Drumroll please)…Daisy! We went through a lot of names (my husband had a lot I immediately rejected), then I just spurted this one out and we both liked it. For some reason I can just see her with a costume with daisy petals around her head. I will have to look into that, Halloween is just around the corner.
She is still such a sweetie. Her and Buddy finally played some today. He can get a little rough, as he has never been able to play with another cat before, but she knows how to hide or run away well.
Oh, I just love seeing that sweet girl again. And I think Daisy is the perfect name for her sweet self! It’s too bad she’s so unable to relax in her new home, isn’t it? 😉
Thanks for the update and pictures, Kathy!

I have a couple more pictures of Jon Snow and Brandon to share, and of course Norbie pics (and then I believe I’ve got a couple more Jon Snow pictures for tomorrow. What? He was here for an entire day longer than Brandon and Hodor!)
Norbie has adapted really well to being the only kitten in residence for the moment. When he wants to play, he’s happy enough to play by himself, but he’s been getting buddy-buddy with Jake, too. And then there’s Stefan, who’s always happy to engage in some play fighting. At night he paces around on the bed a little before he settles down, and then I’m not sure if he gets up and plays during the night or just stays with me, because whatever he does, it doesn’t wake me up (which I am grateful for!)
Bath time for Norbie.
I put a harness on Norbie, and he skulked around like he knew there was something not quite right, but he couldn’t figure out WHAT was different. It took him about 10 minutes to adapt to it, and then he didn’t even seem to notice it was there.
Jon Snow, getting flirty with Stefan.
Getting REALLY flirty.
Getting a little forward, and making a slow approach with the Paw of Doom.

“Wahhhhh! I’m the BAYBEE, and this big kitty is PICKING ON ME!”
“Did I mention that WAHHHHH, I’m the BABYEE?!”
Stefan, considering his next move (which was to run off, because he had places to be!)
Jumpin’ kitties (and Sugarbutt, coming in to see what the ruckus was about).
Brandon looks like he’s doing some mid-air Irish dancing.
Pretty boy.
And pretty Brandon!
I was actually walking around the house dusting with a Swiffer duster, and the kittens were following me around, absolutely obsessed with it. That’s what they were jumping for. Look, if they’d wanted to dust so badly, they were welcome to it!
Oh, how I love his striped tail.

When Jake isn’t busy bathing the kittens, he makes sure to keep his own furs sparkling clean.

2010: What cracked me up is that Maxi didn’t even stick her paw through the fence to smack Corby, and he still fell over like she’d made contact.
2009: Obviously the only way to get a decent shot of all six of them, they need to be drugged and very, very sleepy.
