And you'd think there'd be less poo to deal with as they get older wouldn't you? Sadly not the case.... if anything it gets worse as grown up cat poo is infinitely more horrendous to clean off the floor at 7am just because somebody doesn't feel the litter tray is meeting her standards of cleanliness Hmm

Hope they're both back to normal soon poor loves.

ExitPursuedByAKitten · 19/06/2011 14:16

Phew - what relief.

Get them trained to poo outside as soon as possible!

Pinot · 19/06/2011 14:25

Ginger is still "corked"! I'm hoping he holds it in until a minute past midnight, then Fathers Day is over and DH can deal with it Grin

How is he now?

Mine is looking old.

CestTout · 21/06/2011 12:32

Back again! Wow - love the picture of all your babies! Meow and Ginger are fine looking cats :)

Kestryn · 26/06/2011 15:39

I've just been admiring the photos all over again. Especially the ones with Ruby, she looks like she's so good with them. I hope they're better soon - good luck...

Pinot · 26/06/2011 15:48

Sorry chaps have been absent for a while (hospital stay) but pleased to report Meow is back ruling the roost and is lovely and healthy :) :) She's still alot smaller than Ginger but he's a chunk according to the vet, so all is good.

Ruby is great with them, as is the cavvy too, the only problem is that Rubes is very gangly and tries to cuddle up next to them on the sofa and it all ends up in a ball of fur and squeaking Grin

Glad to have you back Pinot, and glad to hear that Meow C is back on form.

SummerRain · 27/06/2011 14:09

Hope everythings ok Pinot.

Glad to hear Meow is back on form..... are they staying Meow and Ginger as big cats or are they getting new names now they're all grown up?

Pinot · 27/06/2011 14:13

Hey Summer have you found your boy yet? :(

I think they'll have to stay with the same names - it's been a long and testing 10 weeks. I call them chick and chunk half the time already Grin

Pinot · 27/06/2011 14:57

Any more updates? Any more photos? Grin

Pinot · 03/07/2011 10:57

Aloha! Another name change

I've got more pics I can upload later on when I get my lazy arse downstairs :)

Well, the babies are 11 weeks old now and to celebrate this I bought them a little kitten collar each in PetsAtHome yesterday - Meows is a little big as she's a diddy one, but Ginger fits his and they both look scrumptious! Scrumptious I tell ya!

They've graduated to a full size litter box as they were flinging litter out of the kitten litter box with abandon Hmm and, yeah, all sweet and lovely.

They're now allowed free access to everywhere in the house and their favourite place to hide/sleep is in the soft toy tidy net thingy in DS3's room. It's a series of net cylinders all strung together and hung from the ceiling. They climb right up to the highest pod and crawl in amongst the teddies and snooooooze :) :) Pics to follow!

TheOriginalFAB · 03/07/2011 15:44

I want pictures of kitties with teddies

Pinot · 03/07/2011 16:32

5 new photos are up

Best ones I could upload - the others have too many pixels for MN (or something) (can you tell I'm not techy?!)

Adorable.

I am looking forward to having kittens but hopefully not for a long while yet.

knockinonyerdoor · 03/07/2011 23:01

They are getting so big - and losing that 'baby kitten' look, all fluff and big eyes. Adorable!

ExitPursuedByAKitten · 04/07/2011 09:41

I'm liking the collars! Ginger is enormous now!

Pinot · 04/07/2011 11:38

Exit He's huge isn't he? Part Tiger, with that stripy tail :) Still loves snuggly cuddles though :)

TrilllianAstra · 04/07/2011 11:44

I like the pictures with the giant brown dog!

OTheHugeManatee · 04/07/2011 11:47

They're looking so grown up! And Grin at little live prickly furry things lurking in a net full of cuddly toys Smile

Pinot · 04/07/2011 11:56

I think I meant stripey. Meh.

They're currently wrestling like nutters on the floor...both tails all fuzzed up and chasing around before the next "b-u-n-d-l-e" roll-a-round :)

Pinot no time to read all this! Are you keeping them? Is that your dog? Gorgeous and so tolerant that is lovely x

Pinot · 04/07/2011 12:18

Yes they're my babies, they're staying within cuddle distance of me at all times!! Grin I have 2 dogs - an old lady Cavalier who is sweet but snores like a trucker and generally ignores the kittens, and an 11mth old Vizsla who thinks she is a kitten and plays with them comstantly, whether they want to or not Grin Daft apath!
