It's another night and the midnight kitten-capades begin.
These little rascals start out with a bit of "pounce and chase" which of course leads to kitten wrestling on (and sometimes under) my big, comfy Living room chair. Thank goodness we're using a washable, changeable slipcover on the thing.

Funny thing about their wrestling is that they'll stalk each other, fake attack and if one catches the other, the wrestling match ends with a pin to the ground and lick on the forehead. Is that a kitten nougie?
Then it's time for the latest and greatest game in the house: Kitten Crinkle Ball Soccer. Little 50 cent toys I picked up at the vet which has both kittens playing for days. They bat it around, grab it in their mouths and carry it to another part of the house where it rolls better then resume the game. If the ball ends up under a cabinet or chair, they'll go in search of to dig it out. I thought they'd given up after the first hour's use with the ball to be lost until vacuum day, but sure enough the next morning we spot another kitten carrying the thing around the house to play again.
Here Bella bats her prize around in the hallway only to end up in the bathroom.

Then Cricket retrieves it from the bathroom and has her fun with it.

As of now they've chased each other upstairs. Hopefully that means they'll settle down for the night.
