Catnaps and Puppy Play

I'm writing today's blog with two kittens on my lap. I have spent so much time with puppies on my lap lately, that this is a totally different experience.

Lighter, a little more scratchy with the occasional nibble.

Typing with kittens on your lap is akin to sweeping with puppies at your feet.

Challenging. To say the least!

Here is a shot of Turtle on my shoulder. He climbed up there last night and snoozed for an hour.

Prior to this nap, we had our two puppies, Jamboree and Joseppe, in with Turtle and Sissy-PUSS-Puss in the whelping box.

Which I guess is now the cat box, since that is where they are hanging out until they get a little bigger.

There was a lot of posturing, purring and panting.

Here Turtle plays peekaboo with Jammy.

I see you Jammy. Can you see me?

The puppies discovered the kitty food and milk, and that was all she wrote.

Sissy-PUSS-Puss does not approve!

This was, hands down, the best part of the night. Jamboree was asleep and Sissy-PUSS-Puss took the opportunity to get up close and personal.

And then she fell asleep.

Quick catnap. Jammy won't notice!

Here is the video of Sissy-PUSS-Puss falling asleep as she watches Jammy sleep.

And it gets even better. Because here, Jammy twitches in her sleep and wakes Sissy-PUSS-Puss up, who then reacts in sleepy startlement. 

Then, of course, they both fall back asleep!

The puppies did try to pretend that the kittens were not there at times.  Here we have Jammy sampling the whelping box while the kitten looks on.

Wood is tasty. Wonder why its not part of our diet.

Taking a quick nap to get her energy back.

I feel like someone is staring at me....

Ignoring the kitten kaboodle taking place at her head.

If I ignore them long enough, they'll go bother Seppe.

Or not! If you can't beat them, join them!

Here we have Jammy trying to play with Turtle. She was remarkably gentle, considering how generally clumsy she is.

Here Turtle explores Jalapeño's foot. He is not afraid of anything, except Sissy-PUSS-Puss trying to nurse off of him. She doesn't understand that he is a boy kitten with no milk and no nipples yet. She is very confused. You probably are too. Just think about it.

Alright. Enough about the kittens already. It's time for some more puppy shots, after all, this is supposed to be a puppy blog!

Our little Dark Green was recently adopted. She is now called Lani. 

Getting some love in while I still can!

Here is Lani playing in the water bowl. Methinks her new mama had better take her swimming :)

And here she is, looking forlorn after her new mama left!

When can I go with you, Mama?

Little Blue is enjoying a sunlit breakfast of soaked kibble.

It does go down easier when wet.

Jammy and Seppe have some cuddle time.

I'm glad we will always be together.

Jamboree is just too sweet for words.

And cute too!

The puppies are also starting to play and snooze with their toys.

Mammalian-reptilian bonding!

Ball dreams!

We have three puppies left. Email me at wahinejoyce@gmail.com if you are interested!
