A Weekend of Firsts

DSC_0445

Two things happened this weekend that I never have witnessed before.

First, Wylla allowed Marigold to make biscuits on her belly.  I've seen many kittens try, on both her and Bean, too, but never have I seen either of the girls allow it!

And yes, I've got it on video!!  When you watch it, be sure to take a close look at the kneading polydactyl paws -- it's so interesting to see all of the toes moving.  

AND THEN THIS HAPPENED: 

Bean and Wylla were snuggled up on the couch, and Miss Marigold dove into the middle of their cuddle puddle. Wylla started grooming her, then Bean joined in, and they bathed Marigold TOGETHER.  Another first. Never have I witnessed anything like this before.  They groom the kittens individually, but it's never a team effort!

And that's on the video, too.



Then Poe jumped up and joined the puddle. He got a little bath, and they all napped together.

Sigh.  It really was the sweetest thing to see all four snuggling together.  This is a pretty rare occurrence, but I have witnessed it a time or two before.

Oh, and before I go, I just received notice that our large Sparkle Balls will be delivered today! The second they are here, I'll get them back up in the shop!



Have a great Monday, Friends. I hope this cuteness helps make your Monday better.

  4. With their colorings, it looks like the Wylla could be the kittens' Mom. Maybe she wants to "adopt" them herself?!? ;-)
