My Home Designing Skills Get High Marks! :)

Yesterday, the kittens started getting out of the box, and Cali looked on while I kept picking them up and putting them back in! I noticed she was more nervous about the gloves I was wearing, (to protect them from my scent), then she was about my picking them up and handling them! :)

After watching me struggling in vain to keep the four of them in the box, she took pity on me and climbed in and nursed them to sleep! I smiled my appreciation to her and went in to bed, leaving them to the pro! :)

Anyway, last night I had restless dreams about the kittens climbing all over and being in danger of falling and getting hurt, so this morning I set about making safer arrangements for them! :)

I set up the big box our b.b.q. grill came in, and used one small box for kitty litter, and a long narrow box for the food and water dishes! :)

Then I caught two escapees, put them back in the box, and set the box of kittens in their new abode, and spread a few clean towels in the added space! :)

Once done, I found Cali, and coaxed her back to the garage to make sure she approved of what I'd done! :) She looked it over, a little apprehensively, before giving it high marks by purring loudly! :) Then, to further show her approval, she climbed in and fed them breakfast! :)
So this is the layout of their new and improved living arrangements! :)
They seem to have adapted to their new and improved space almost instantly! :)
They enjoyed checking out the new bathroom! :)
Cali purred loudly, showing her appreciation, while her kittens looked on! :)
Then it was back to wrestling, which has recently become one of their favorite activities! :) Wrestling in the bedroom! :)

Wrestling in the great room! :)
The orange kitten was the first to try out the kitchen eating area and enjoyed chowing down on the new soft food! :) (Much better than the untouched bird Cali presented them with, that I noticed was left untouched in their bedroom)! :) Speaking of which, I will be washing their bedding, too, once I feel Cali's convinced they don't want the meal she hunted for them! :)
While I enjoyed watching her babies, Cali seemed to enjoy watching me! :) She even seems comfortable with my touching them, (without the gloves), which means I can start socializing them now! :) I'm so excited!!! :) I've been aching to pick them up and hold them! :)

... It's a tough job, but somebody's got to do it!! :) grin
