Kitten Invasion

No matter where you go in this house you are surrounded by cats!  I know this post has a lot of kitten pics—but we have many more than this—but I couldn’t cut out more as I want to remember their littleness forever—and it won’t last long!!

The kittens are always laying on top of each other (and if they can do that while being on a person—even better!!)—Look at those tails—how sweet is that?!!

I love this picture of Boaz (above left).  That captures his personality so much!!  He is ALL BOY KITTEN!!!  He is full on, all the time!  Will run as fast as a cheetah, slide, jump, fall, flip, sprawl—you name it—he is so inquisitive and doesn’t think before he does!

Our sweet Joey!  He is pure innocence!  He is so strong!  He doesn’t jump and run quite like his brother, but he is a get down and dirty kind of kitten too!  We did find he will still shake like crazy if we carry him outside though!  He gets so scared—bless his sweet little heart!  Boaz, on the other hand keeps trying to get outside and it’s driving him crazy that we aren’t letting him…  Esther, she doesn’t seem to care either way.

This was after their first vet visit.  Round one of vaccines and they slept the whole day with slight fevers!  Clara was at camp though, so I took pictures to put in a card to her from the cats.

That is pure sweetness!

Then pure sweetness was photobombed by Boaz  :)

Joey sucks on his siblings ears!  Esther used to but I haven’t seen her do this in quite a while so I think she may have actually grown out of it.  Boaz never sucked on an ear, but I have seen him suck a blanket, but not in a while.  He will try to suck my chin/neck in the middle of the night though---I can do without that!

This just did NOT look comfortable at all!!

He finally slid all the way down and then Esther joined the party.

As soon as she left, he took over again.

It is hard to tell in this picture—we came home from somewhere to find that Boaz had gotten a paw stuck in one of the sticky paper spider killers!  It was hilarious!!

This picture above cracks me up!  Esther was curled up with Clara and Little Sheepy.  Clara wanted to snap a pic and only Mike’s phone was close enough for her to grab.  She took the pic with his phone and somehow posted it to his facebook wall!  I saw it and thought it was an interesting picture for him to post—cute yes, but not really what I would expect him to post.  He was surprised by it too, and eventually we were able to figure out what all happened!  Good picture Clara!5

They are just too darn cute!!  Yes, we have an obscene amount of cats (5), but we love them all very much!!
