The Kittens Are Here!

[xtineebee]

Gnaeus and Pompey have arrived.  All cooing under the LJ cut.

So I went to collect my two little kitten-dudes this afternoon.  

This is Gnaeus 


And here is Pompey



Gnaeus is the more outgoing of the two; Pompey is looking a little pissy because I finally forced him to come out of the cat carrier and explore.  He had been content to squat in there and have things brought to him:


But, he was named after a Roman general, not some degenerate Roman emperor, so he was made to be brave.

All of this was very exhausting, and inevitably led to the wonderful delight that is a sleepy snoozy kitten pile:


They are a little guarded around Sebi (wise of them) but Sebi seems to care less about them.  In the following image, Sebi can be quoted as thinking "Yes, yes - whatever.  They're not eating that food you put out for them...can I? Please?


Sebi did manage to secure the entire remainder of *the can* when I was busy ...well...hearding cats.

They are tiny and fluffy and faboo.  Sophie keeps calling to see how they are doing, and I am happy to say they no longer jump at the sound of the phone.

Ah, but has princess Bad Hair Day gone into spasms upon seeing them?

Her Majesty has not met them yet. She is, however, about to be temporarily evicted from 'her room' (the den) to live down in the main room while the boys settle in, and the den will be theirs during the day. Princess is far to excited over having a new carboard castle to eat. Yes - she does have a little carboard house decorated like a castle. My mum found it and it's just *so* PBHD!

Thank you! Is that your lovey in the icon? Such a beautiful face on that cat.

Yes, that's my Ada - and I told her what you said and she purred. (I was also petting her at the time, but hush).

I think you have a submission for cuteoverload.com on your hands.

They are precious! I want to come play with them when I'm in town. :D

Absolutely - give me a call when you get here. We can just order in and spend the time playing with the menagerie I've managed to collect.

Wonderful names! They're adorable kitties, and I love the nap.
