The kittens played hard early this morning and then were sleepy for most of the afternoon.
I went in and had a nice session with them. Chrissy is getting very tetchy with them and I might need to move her to my spare bedroom for a few days.
There was quite a bit of fighting today and while I was in the area most of them stopped to have a feed as well as drink water before they started again.
They are all happy to fight with any of the others and it was like tag wrestling as opponents changed several times. Even during a fight with Ivy, Magda was hanging onto the mouse.
The purple mouse was again an attraction and whoever has it issues growls to the rest.
When Naza was playing it got too near Chrissy so he just left it, however, when Magda was playing and it got too near Chrissy she snuck up and quickly grabbed it in her mouth and retreated smartly, lol!!
Most of them calmed down by the time I was ready to leave, although Magda often seems to be on a different sleep cycle to the others.
Frosty was a bit different today, coming for cuddles, he has lost a bit of weight over the past two day so I will be keeping a special eye on him over the next couple of days.
I rang the SPCA and I will keep them for about another five days after their spay/neuter to keep them all together.
This means that on Tuesday February 24 I will take Chrissy and three of the kittens to the SPCA, I will retain one kitten to stay with Ivy until she is ready to go, after her spay. The choice is mine to make and I will wait until after they have had their ops.
This morning when I popped in they were sleeping so I left them alone. It seemed that every time I did look in today they were asleep, lol, must have had a hard night! I did notice that the purple mouse had drowned, lol!!
Chrissy is really grouchy with them at the moment but at one point today she did let them at the milk bar. Otherwise, she does not like them coming too close to her, she wants her personal space, lol!
When I went on for some time with them they were not playing hard so I used one of the "dangly" toys and that got them going. In between the play, they all ate well, at one point three of them were heads down in the trough!
Magda is certainly a live wire and does not like to be held. She is also a climber and my back must be covered in her claw marks!! The only time she is still is when she is asleep.
Cindy-Lou and Frosty are both big purrers and when they are not playing hard like to lie down and be stroked, this includes tummy tickles as well.
Chrissy really loves being brushed and also loves to be scratched round her head and under her chin. Today, I was able to ask her to come to me to be brushed. Frosty seems to have recovered the weight he lost and he appears to be fine.
Wednesday's weights compared to arrival weight: Magda (1050, +805), Naza (1160, +900, Ivy (825 +615), Frosty (1050, +785), Cindy-Lou (1105, +835)
