This was probably the last week I’ll be able to get pictures of them where I’m holding them in one hand and taking the picture with the other. They’re getting to be – I believe the official term is “chunky monkeys.” Especially Rickles! I weighed them yesterday, and you can see their weights at the bottom of their page, here. If you don’t want to go look, I can sum it up thusly: Rickles is the largest at 14.5 ounces, and Louis is the tiniest at 9.7 ounces.
Here’s a shot of Louis and Rickles, side by side to show the size difference.
How about a better shot of each kitten, where they aren’t flailing around?

Skelton and Gilda are still pretty unsure of life outside the crate, and so while everyone else will pile out and gather around me (and play-fight with each other), those two stay in the crate and wander around. I take them out and cuddle them, which they seem to like, but as soon as I put them down, they go right back into the crate. I know they’ll eventually come around and decide that there’s cool stuff outside the crate.

Videos! The theme for today is “cleanliness.” In the first, Lucy and Louis work together to keep Louis clean.
And in the second: Yes. Yes, I DID upload a 28-second long video of a kitten cleaning his paw. I couldn’t bear to trim it!

Sheriff Kara sure does like to throw herself on the ground and roll around when you talk to her. Honestly, I expect a little more dignity from our law enforcement officials.
