haha sorry for that - mine still don't "go through the night" all the time (who said having kittens is easier than babies), they'll do it for 7/10 days then suddenly will decide that they want a cuddle in the middle of the night............a loving as it is I don't really appreciate it at 3am!!! Although Cruz is big-boned enough that you can put your arm over her and cuddle her right into you

Although them waking up during the night isn't the best but they soon grow out of it (well maybe when they're about 6mths)

Care to come and tell Mosi he's supposed to have grown out of it?

He's 15 months and I'm still waiting!

Here's a link to some very tall cat scratch post you maybe interested in for you 2 new babies..........all little cheaper than the one you mentioned. My small post from these people is really good quality

Congrats on your two new bundles of fluff, they look absolutely gorgeous!!! You'll have sooooo much fun with them, esp when you're sitting there watching them chase each other and amuse themselves. My two girls still do it now and they're going to be 1 2wks today - can't believe where the time has gone since I got them in June!! The best is when they play and play and play then climb onto your lap and fall fast asleep as they're sooooo tired. Although them waking up during the night isn't the best but they soon grow out of it (well maybe when they're about 6mths)

if you're lucky

Can't wait to see more pics of them

Faaaaantastic! Always scared of suggesting newbies to anyone who's furbabe has gone but the distraction factor works for me. They are really beautiful kittens. I vaguely recall the antics of my 2 kittens way back in 1977 and they were manic! Speciality was climbing curtains and hanging there scaring us to death. Also love it when they are asleep and so completely out of it. Really jealous and sooo delighted for you Helen.

Aw, gorgeous babes, you much be so excited

Tiggy will be delighted that you're opening your heart and home to these darling bundles, they couldn't ask for a better meowmy either

Can't wait to see more pics in the future x

Thanks everyone for all your lovely comments, good idea Gill - I think I will rename this day Tiggy day

Quote from: Sue P (Paddysmum) on March 19, 2007, 21:46:41 PM

Wot you bin buyin' then Helen? Still remember when you made Tiggy's Tent!

Well, so far:

Play tunnel

Pop up tent (Tiggy's one would have been a bit precarious for two boisterous kittens - it was just perfect for my sleeping angel though!)

Kitty roundabout

Various mice

Various balls

Kitty glove - glove with long fingers to tease them!

Various things on the end of sticks

Various treats

Two beds

Cleo cat gym like Linda's boys have

Still to get:

Super duper taller than me scratch/climbing centre - got to wait til pay day - it's £115

Anything else that takes my fancy!

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #17 on:** March 19, 2007, 21:50:56 PM »

Sites back up now

We in chat reckoned it crashed in honor of Tiggy cos we all rushed to post at once.

So it will be known as the Tiggy Day from now on

We want to see what you have bought and cant wait for them to be home and loadssss and loadsssssssss of piccs

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #16 on:** March 19, 2007, 21:49:44 PM »

Aw they such ickle little puddies....could eat them!!! So cute!

Bless them.

And yes spoil em rotten!

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #15 on:** March 19, 2007, 21:48:23 PM »

I remember when Paddy and Flynn were kittens. I frequently came home to find my curtains hanging askew at the windows and the neighbours in stitches having watched their antics. Hard work, but so rewarding.

Aww, they are gorgeous Helen - I am surprised you are going for kittens though, and really dont envy you having 2 of them running about, but they are gorgeous, I do have a soft spot for grays. Can't wait to see and hear more of them when you get them home.

Oh Helen - that's fantastic news!! They're beautiful. Heh heh heh - you do make I larf, missus!

I think Tiggy will be quietly pleased. Maybe I'm barmy, but I think she would want you to be happy. She knows you miss her like mad, and will love her always. Giving a home to Kali and Riley won't diminish that in any way. Bless you!

Teresa Pawcats · « **Reply #4 on:** March 19, 2007, 21:38:16 PM »

Helen thats the best news I`ve heard, you have such a loving home to give them, I think Tiggy will be beaming with pride.

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #3 on:** March 19, 2007, 21:37:26 PM »

Helen so pleased for you. Personally, I think you made a GREAT decision to make these two part of your family, but only you would know when the time was right.

So very happy about this news, they are GORGEOUS!!!

A well deserved holiday and then a comfy home with mum when she gets back.

Two very lucky and potentially spoiled little ones!!!!

CurlyCatz · « **Reply #2 on:** March 19, 2007, 21:37:12 PM »

god just got frozen out and desperate to get on to read this

helen they are beautiful..havent even read your post yet LOL i was so cited to see what ya gettin

Tiggy's Mum · « **Reply #1 on:** March 19, 2007, 21:29:30 PM »

As some of you may know I recently lost my beloved Tiggy after almost 19 years together, her brother died several years ago so she was an only cat. I was and am devastated at her loss but I will love her Forever and Always. I still have a lot of love to give and cannot imagine being without a cat in my life for much longer....

So, meet Kali and Riley

Kali is a female grey tabby on the left and Riley is a grey and white boy on the right.

They are only babies at the moment and were 1 week old when this pic was taken, they will be coming to live the life of luxury with me at the end of April when I get back from two weeks holiday. I'm so excited, I've taken another weeks annual leave to settle them in. I've been holding off saying anything as I'm terrified that something will happen to them so was trying to keep this to myself - I've obviously failed!

I will have lots of kitten questions to ask as the last time I had kittens was almost 19 years ago and I was 10 years old myself!
