Oh the Joy of Having Kittens!

Yes, I should probably be doing homework, but I was frantically searching for an escape from 10 pages of Geometry. I decided that I would write about my wonderful kittens, Diamond and Chloe. We've had the little bundles joy for about two months... maybe I should have said the little bundles of joy with razor-sharp claws and sandpaper tongues. These little sweeties also have built-in alarm clocks that, when they beep at 5 o'clock in the morning say, "Wake up Amber! Wake Amber up! She's not waking up, maybe you should use the little, pink lethal weapon inside your mouth. Use it on her lower eyelid. Maybe you should bite her chin, or attack her toes." I don't think the kittens realize how sharp their mini knives are. While playing games, they often slice the hands of whoever is playing with them. They do all of this while purring and loving all over us. Our precious little kitties also stink. No, they're not dirty, but their breath-whew!! It always smells like tuna. The bummer about our kitties is, that when they're peeling layers of skin off of very sensitive parts of the arms, hands, feet or face, they're also traumatizing with their killer breath.
There's an upside to having our little babies, too. They are SO lovable! While sitting at the computer desk, it's not at all uncommon for Diamond to climb up on the lap of the person sitting there. Chloe loves to be held. As soon as she's picked up, she snuggles onto the right shoulder of the holder. Diamond decides that, whenever Mom or I is in the kitchen, she wants to rub on our legs. It's also not uncommon to see unsuspecting people tripping over the lovable kitty. Yep, there are lots of reasons that make having kitties a very interesting experience.
