Food Tiems

We are fed mushy food twice a day - once in the morning, once in the evening - and we get all the crunchies and water we could want. It's a pretty sweet deal.

We drink a LOT of water. Of course, to get fed, we have to do the whole cute-thing first.


Velvet is selling the cute like a pro.


It may have been cute, but we were actually having fun playing with our foil toy.


Mom tried to take some action shots. She didn't fail too badly at it >:3


I got the ball! I was so happy. Velvet was so jealous.


More ball fun!


Haha, I got the ball again! I'm the master soccer-player with that ball.


Wah! I had the ball, but Velvet had me! She didn't like my taunts.

I was victorious, but at what price?


Mom got the food out.


I was curious...


Mushy food warmed in the microwave for us. We have it too-good.


At first we didn't know what was happening, so we kept playing. I mean, it's not like mom told us what was going on. "Hey guys, the food is out here, come and get it! Guys???"


We share, even though I keep insisting I get my own bowl.


Velvet tries to muscle me out of the way! That's not fair. She may have been the runt, but she's bigger than me, now! I need to keep up my strength to continue to beat her at soccer!


Like I said, Velvet poses for the camera. Oh well, I got to eat a bit more because of her vanity >:3


After lunch/dinner (linner) I played under the table.


When the chairs are all pushed in, I can really get going dragging myself along by the posts.


After all the excitement, we were all tuckered out. Pooped!

Sleepy time
zzzzzzz... =^_^= =^_^= ...zzzzzzz

Kitchen Life

We've got a routine. Eat and sleep. When we're not running around, we're sleepy kitties.


Mom's mom took this picture. Velvet was sleeping very cutely, so I climbed onto the chair and nuzzled underneath her. I like kitten-piles.



I like to talk. Not for any reason, usually just to hear myself and dazzle at how awesome I sound.


Mom's mom is a hard nut to crack when it comes to giving extra foods. I know there must be treats and yummies here for me, but she's not budging!
We tried to look cute anyways.


Velvet loves posing.


Video of Velvet looking cute.


After operation treat get failed, we came down to mom's room. She was on the computer, but Velvet found a place to sleep where she could be close to mom.

'
At first, I was happy just sleeping beside the printer. I slept where the mouse should have gone. Mom had to adjust how she used her computer so I would be comfortable. Haha!




Eventually, I thought Velvet looked comfy on the printer, so I muscled my way in there, too.

First time outside


We finally got to explore the little patio that mom and her male human friend put together for us. The first couple of days, I didn't like going out, but after a while, Velvet and I were having fun out there.



We explored our surroundings.


I'll bet I could fit my head through there...


Velvet is sure she can fit her head through there.



I was exploring the perimiter of my cage, looking for weaknesses in the fencing. I found it!

When mom was watching Velvet, I slipped through the hole in the fence. Luckily, I'm still small enough to fit! Another month or two and I don't know if I could. Not with all the yummies they are feeding me here!

Mom had to drop her little, silver, image-recording thing, put Velvet in her room and then run around to another door to get me! I had such fun!

Once I was recaptured, it was Velvet's turn to make a break for it.

While it is fun at our new home, it's always good to keep mom & mom's mom on their toes. In hindsight, it may not have been wise to show how easily we can escape. Now they will sure up the perimeter and remove that one opening for us. Oh well, I suppose the outside world can't be that great. I mean, where else will we find two mushy food meals a day? Oh, and all these shiny toys they have for us, not to mention the cozy blue blanket in the closet!


You'd think they just put this in here explicity for us to enjoy! Foolish humans, devoting all their time and space to kittens. Don't they know we'll take over the world someday?


To distract them from this fact, I lied on my side and chewed on some shoelaces. We couldn't let them know our plan!


Velvet pretended to watch me chew up mom's shoes. She's good at the cute act.


Later, Velvet and I wrestled to secure our "cute" status, as if it wasn't secure already!

When I grow up, I wanna be a LOLcat at I can has cheezburger.
I suppose my grammar will have to degrade significantly before that could occur, though. Too bad, those kitties seem to know how to have some good lols.

Life on a chair



Today I spent a lot of time on a chair. It was a comfy chair and I cuddled in with Velvet. I love spending time in the kitchen, especially since that is where those magical foil balls are kept!




I cuddled in with Velvet, since she's so soft and fluffy. She makes a great pillow.


My black spots aren't so black! Mom says she can see some tabby striping coming through on my black patches. She says that makes me more special :3

Sick belly

Velvet is sick.

I feel fine.

She was trying to poop in the litter.

I thought it would be a great time to wrestle with her.

Human mom held me back :(

Foil Ball ftw!



Human mom gave me this toy. It's shiny and silver and lots of fun. I'm a soccer star! I'm very good at keeping it away from the ball-eating-monster (hutch) and if it gets too close, I pick it up in my teeth. I'm such a smart girl.

Waking up is FUN!


We woke up!

We hung out in the kitchen!!



We played with foil balls, but most importantly...


WE SLEPT IN OUR COMFY, COMFY BOX!

Mom was at work for most of the day. When she came home, she brought the guy from earlier with her. I will call him fluffy face because he has an awesome goatee. I will nuzzle it someday...

But for the meantime, I will sleep on his lap!

WATCH ME SLEEP SO ADORABLE!

I only sleep on laps if I want to. nobody can hold me down, or I will mew so pathetically that people say awww and let me down. Bwahahaha!


I would have been adventuring, but I was too comfortable. Velvet has no shame.


They made a cocoon for me out of blankets! I like the warmth =^_^=


Velvet is such a diva who likes having her picture taken. Here I am, trying to gnaw on her, but she keeps looking at the camera all cute-like.






There was one time where I was sleeping. So comfy! I was dreaming about eating, too. I felt something on my throat, but I refused to wake up. REFUSE! The dream was so delicious.
It turns out that Velvet was gnawing on my neck!
It hurt, but I will not wake up if I am dreaming of yummies!

New Home!

Omg, human-mom came to get us today! The ride back home was scary. There was a strange person in the back seat that kept trying to talk to us through the carrier door, but all I cared about was the sound of the traffic.

Humans make a lot of noise! I'm just a kitteh and need a bit more consideration! :P

I was pulling at the cage door and mewing all I could. Velvet was no help at all! I didn't like this. My first adventure was scary. It was hot and I might have had to pee, but I was too scared to know. I was being KIDNAPPED from my cat-mom!!

When we finally got to my new home, I was anxious to get out of the carrier.

But I didn't like the feel of the linoleum beneath my footsies! Velvet wouldn't even come out of the cage.

My human-mom and her boyfriend were sitting in front of us, trying to trick me into coming out. I wasn't going to fall for it, though! I wasn't born yesterday! I was born a few weeks ago!!

Eventually the boyfriend took me downstairs to human-mom's room. The foor was soft and Velvet ventured out of the carrier this time. I liked this place a bit better, especially when they opened the window so I could hear the world outside.


Eventually we went to sleep in the closet. It was a real adventure climbing in and trying to find a nice place to sleep on the backpacks. If all places in this new house are this comfy, I think I'll like it here!


Velvet was attacking me on the bed.


A mysterious object appeared on the floor! We had to investigate.

We are excellent hunters.


Chilling with the boyfriend. He seemed pretty cool and laid-back.


Human-mom likes to sit in front of the computer a lot. Velvet wanted to keep her company, and I have to admit it was a pretty comfortable place to sleep.


Unfortunately, my bum slid off her lap! Mom caught me in her bathrobe and hung me there in the makeshift hammock. i liked it. Made me think of sleeping on the side of a mountain.


We hung out with our mom's mom for a while. I can't say I enjoyed being held like this, but sometimes my eyes get so sleepy, it's nice to have someone to sleep against.


Velvet was grinning the whole time. She knows something I don't know maybe? Maybe she had a plan to poop and pee behind the couch! I wasn't going to get in on her shenannegans, though. If she can be more of a shit-disturber than me, then maybe I can prove that I'm the awesome cat that I am.


The only thing I have to compete with are Velvet's feet. They're so furry! Her pads are black with black fur coming between her toes. The tops are furry with extra grey fur coming above that. Her feet are big, and so are her ears. I think she's going to be a big kitty.

I will be Tiger Lilly: lithe beastie and awesome athlete.


They made us our own bed and put lots of fluffy pillows in them.

Goodnight, kitty!

Love,

Tiger Lilly & Velvet
