The Sunny Kittens' hair-styling experience

Uncle Bobby's been long overdue for a haircut.  So, my husband finally got down to doing it this afternoon.  Rex was extremely fascinated and stood totally transfixed by the whole thing.

 It sure looks like a lot of fun, he thinks...

 I guess he was hoping he'd get a haircut too....

 He didn't get one, so he walked back into the room, quite dejected...
(Oh, he's just been frontlined in the morning, hence, the punk look!)

 Er no...he wasn't dejected...he brought reinforcement.....Fox!

 Fox was equally mesmerized by this thing called "haircut"....how fascinating!

 Can we have a haircut too?  Please, please?

Can we?  Can we?  

The two of them kept going up my husband's lap, refusing to get down...seems like they thought they should have their turns as well.

 So, husband decided to humour them and pretended to give them a haircut by making the snipping sounds with the scissors.

 Now, your turn....there you go...snip, snip, snip!

There, all done.  

Only then, did they get down from his lap. 

As usual, Bobby needs two rounds of haircut because the first would never be good enough as he could never keep still enough.  So, here he is, with his second haircut, but Rex was really interrupting, so husband had to put him into a box.  But he climbed all the way up and out!

Peek-a-boo!  I'm out! 

After doing Uncle Bobby's haircut, we decided to make a play-house for the kittens.

 That's their new play-house...

 Hey, it's so much fun!

 Boo!!  Catch me if you can!

 I'm here!

 Come on in....

As mother-cats make it a point to transfer their litter every 5 days or so, the Sunny Kittens also migrate to a different place after every few days. This is their new place. 

Uncle Bobs checks it out....ok, good enough.  Certificate of Fitness granted!  Fit for kitty-occupancy.

The three kittens were frontlined this morning, inside the kitchen sink.  They thought that was fun too!

 

What is a "Cat Castle"?

Jessy Lian sent me these pictures:

It's a Cat Castle, and you can make it out of any cardbox carton!

Thanks, Jessy!

"We're eating kibbles now..."

Photo updates:

We're getting tired of milk, can we have some of Uncle Bobby's food?  Bunny normally cleans up left-overs, but he walks away and lets Fox and Rex sniff at the food.  No, don't worry, they did not eat any of the chicken.  I took it away. 

 Fox looks at the ball, but doesn't quite know what it's for.  Ah...still too young.

Rex is the first to eat dry kibbles, and here he is, claiming it for himself.

Rex loves this space behind the washing machine.  Since it's not so safe, I had put a tissue box to block it, but he climbed over and settle in comfortably.

 Fox and Honeybear still love Tiger's basket.

 In fact, all three of them do. 

Tiger's not too happy, though.  For the first time ever, we heard the feline-Gandhi hiss.  Yes, Tiger hissed at the Sunny Kittens.

 Fox must be the most photogenic of the three.

Look here, at the camera, please? 

Click!!

One more, one more...without the flash this time.

Click!!

 Fox learns to eat the dry kibbles as she watched Rex eating it.

 Honeybear joins in, but he just plays with the kibbles in his mouth, chewing it like chewing gum and spits them out.  He's still on the bottle.

Still the baby of the family.

 I'm full already...

 Honeybear tramples all over the kibbles...for fun!

 Oh well...a few more won't hurt.

Rex goes mountain climbing.

The baby still sucks for comfort!



The Sunny Kittens' upstairs tour

Yesterday, the Sunny Kittens went for a tour....upstairs!

It was afternoon, and nap-time, so after exploring the room, they decided to take a nap...in Tiger's basket. 

An typical afternoon nap for them usually lasts a few hours, but this time, it was interrupted as someone had other plans...

 I thought I too could take a nap while they nap, but....

 Honeybear stirs in his sleep, and gets up...

 He stretches and plays by himself.

 I'm bored...I want to find something more interesting to do...

 So he wanders off to this new place...

 Boring...so he comes back.

 But Fox and Rex are still sleeping, so he goes to Uncle Bobby.

 He wakes Uncle Bobby up, then he goes back and nudges his siblings...

Until everybody wakes up!

Of all three, Honeybear loves the soaked kibbles the most.  He can eat them off my hand already.  Rex and Fox don't quite like it much.  Fox cannot even pick up the kibbles off my hand. 

And, Honeybear is the most "aggressive" of the three, too!

Rex (named after the Tyrannosaurus-Rex) is the most mild-mannered of 'em all!



The Sunny Kittens' new bungalow

Photo updates:

 The sunny kittens have migrated from their carrier to this new bungalow.

 Honeybear can finally suck from the bottle. 

No more syringe-feeding now.

 The three play together very happily.

 It reminds me of Tumble Tots!

 Honeybear is the first to groom himself!

 Bungalows aside, they still love Uncle Bobby's warmth.

 Good old Uncle Bobs!

This is Tiger's basket. 

They've taken it as well!

Last night, I tried ONE (just one piece) of soaked Baby Cat kibble on each of them.  Fox and Honeybear spat them out, but Rex took his quite happily. 

This morning, they each had ONE soaked kibble again.  Just one piece each.  I hope their stomachs will gradually adjust to the kibbles in time.



A sunny day for the Sunny Kittens

Some photo updates and milestones...

Rex and Fox can already drink from the bottle.  Honeybear still needs syringe-feeding, but he has the loudest voice!

Fox, the big sister.

 With Uncle Bobby...the ever reliable one.

 The smallest, but has the loudest voice!

 This morning, Rex could even lap milk from a dish, but just a wee bit.  Honeybear just trampled all over the milk.  Fox didn't quite know what was going on!

Rex grooming Honeybear.

 Fox using the litter-box.

Rex and Fox can use the litter-box already!

Honeybear pees outside the litter box, then he steps inside!

How cute!
