Another impressive first today: the little orange kitten managed to climb up the couch to come see us. He dug his little claws in and grappled up the side of the couch until he was next to us. I wonder if he felt the same elation that Edmund Hillary felt when he was the first to scale Mt. Everest!
There was a major catfight in our house yesterday. Seven took Ceres growling as an agressive act, and went after her. You know all those cartoons that you see where two cats are fighting, and they look like a big ball of fur with paws swiping out? Well, that's entirely accurate! I had to reach into the "blender" to seperate the girls, earning me four large scratches and several smaller ones on my hands. At least none of the cats were injured.... not that it's any consolation!
It was necessary to replace the kitten's food dish with a larger plastic container. There was no way that five kittens and Seven were able to eat from the little dish that the SPCA gave us. It's amazing that all the kittens always want to eat at the SAME TIME. We joked about getting them a trough, but settled on lending them one of our food saver containers.
