This is Boris, playing with his new mousie. He is fond of batting it around, and looks up at us for approval and cuteness ratings (we usually give him a ten). By Saturday (yesterday) he had thoroughly insinuated himself into the household. He sneaks up to the other cats and stealth cuddles. He follows us around until we pick him up, and squeaks if we don't comply. Even Czarina Katya has stopped reflexively hissing at him.

He is enjoying the big porch windows, and his new kibble (Science diet kitten), he wouldn't eat the food that came with him from the shelter. :) His favorite treat so far is mighty dog, which TRUST me, we are not giving him, but he sneaks into Sophie's food dish every chance he gets. I don't know what sort of crack they put in mighty dog, but all the kittehs LOVE it.

He hasn't figured out where to sleep yet. The last couple of nights he tried my pillow. Lucky me, he appears to be a hair nesting kitten. He also frequently licks my cheek or ear and has damn stinky cat breath.

We needed a new watering system, so today's 50.00 trip to Pet Smart included a new water-bottle/ dish system, and a handsome collar with bell and tag. I figure this at least gives the other cats a running start. Tonight's big kitten fun includes an introduction to the ferret.
