It has been almost 5 months since Cleo first joined us, and she has grown from a stubby little kitten to a stubborn lithe kitteh. Kitteh being the stage between wobbly kittenhood to sleek adulthood. Of course I just made that up ;P but you catch my drift.
Throughout all this Tuffie has been the patient foster-mother, enduring pranks and general kitten playfulness. These range from things such as fighting for pouf rights:
Tuffie was not eager to give up her comfortable seat.
A bit of teasing ensues, and Cleo hatches her plan.
After a flurry of chaos, Cleo claims victory. Tuffie then hatches her counter-attack...Cleo is usually the instigator, attacking Tuffie when she is preparing to sleep, sunning herself etc.
Kitten attack!
Tuffie does not appreciate her butt being whacked and proceeds to pinch the heck out of Cleo. Cue kitten sounds of indignation. Also the perfect picture to illustrate the love/hate relationship between the two.But of course it wasn't all bites and trying to claw each others' eyes out, there were frequent moments of tenderness, when you just wanna go "awwwwwwwww"
"awwwwwwwwwwwwww"And also the sucklings:
"squee!"
Tuffie will clean Cleo whenever she is on the teat...
Closeup of kitten contentment.
Some attitude here - Tuffie is all like "What, want to make something of it?"
