Moving, Kittens and Changes

It's been three years and there have been a lot of changes. You may be asking such important questions as "But Kittens? Yes?" and "What changes?" and "Moving?Where?". Not to mention, "Why does she think my questions would be so short and grammatically incorrect?"

Well, I don't per se. I know that most people are capable of asking questions that are not simply comprised of two to three words and one thing I like about my friends is the fact that they have a firm grasp of grammar and the English language. But there have been a lot of changes in the three years since this blog was updated.

The kittens are still here and doing quite well, indeed. They are quite a bit bigger then they were back in 2012. Everdeen has topped 16 pounds and Earl, while lighter, isn't exactly a feline midget. Last time he was weighed he was about 13 or 14 pounds. They now get to explore a house rather than being confined to an apartment. Oh, and we may have thrown in an 80 pound dog into the mix. That, likely, was the low point in the kittens' life. Everdeen has come around somewhat. Earl is still plotting the dog's downfall between skulking in the shadows and trying to catch the laser pointer. I still can't have nice things.

Both cats have responded quite well to having a much larger territory to roam around in and we've gone out of our way to ensure that there is some fun terrain for them to explore. Case in point, my office:

My loving husband putting up cat shelves

Now I can work while the cats climb

Everdeen seeing what he can knock off

Earl surveying his new kingdom

It's taken them a few days to get used to the idea and Everdeen seems to be using the shelves a lot more than Earl but I'm patient. I'm sure that before long they'll both be up there staring down at the dogs.
