Hello! Mom promised me I could introduce the brats. OOPs, sorry Mom. The kittens. They were born on April 8 2024 and came to us on July 8th.
This was Socks. Mom kept calling her Spot!
This was Purril.
Mom never got her name right! Then she was Whisper because she was just a tiny whisper of a cat.
Mom came in from a sewing class and declared, I know who you are!
She picked up Socks/Spot and told her, her new name is COCO.
Then she picked up Purril/Whisper and told her her name is YUMYUM
We thought she was crazy until she explained where the names came from!
Author Lilian Jackson Braun wrote 29 books that the titles all started out, THE CAT WHO.
The Siamese cats in the books were Coco and YumYum.
Mom either read or listened to all of the books, several times.
It took me about a month to decide if I liked them or not. Don't tell Mom, but I do like them.
We have sniffed each other all over, cuddled together, and played together. Mom insisted that they were girl kittens because, the only male cat I loved was Wizard and I tolerated Kirby.
Mom finally got cuddle Lap kitties! I have never been a cuddlier or lap kitty! That was Wizards game. Even after 16 years, I will only stand on the couch or bed and beg for pats! I always get them too. These silly kittens will crawl up on her chest and lay down. There are times she wanted to get up and do things, but sis not want to disturb a kitten.
During this time our Dad got really ill. On the 26th, He crossed the rainbow bridge to find Wizard, Mac, Max and Kirby and a whole lot of others.
We will write more about these monkeys later,
