Scrapping in the Litter Box

Being boys, Basil and Parsley spend a fair amount of their waking hours play-fighting. Yesterday, they decided it would be a good idea to have a scrap in the litter box, and then track poo over the carpet chasing each other out of said litter box. Gotta love 'em.

Here's what else they've been up to over the last couple of days... as you can see, they really like the laundry basket and our flat is a bloody tip. Exhausting work for them I'm sure.

Day One... so much fun

They're here! They're finally here!

After a fairly noisy cab journey (bless the man from Ad Lee for his patience), Basil and Parsley have settled right in here. Very little fuss, they're storming about like they own the place already. Favourite activity so far seems to be fighting in a large paper bag. They're also delightfully affectionate though, stretching out next to us on the sofa for a nap within a couple of hours of their arrival. No signs of fear or timidness (timidity?) in these tigers. No sir.

Busy Bees

Over the last few weeks, we have been hard at work preparing the flat for our young arrivals. On his part, that has involved a fair amount of clever designing and building of things. On my part, that has mainly involved buying stuff on the internet. Still, stick to what you know, eh?

Ok, I think we need a montage... progress as follows...
"iBeds" now 100% complete:


Bought stuff:


Bought more stuff:

Essentials:

A bookcase hidey-hole. So jealous of this...

The water-fountain. Sans water, but you get the idea:

Yum:
Behold the amazing Window Defender (isn't he clever):

More my level of assembly... the tower:

The intimidatingly fast-growing Cat Grass (no really, it's like Day of the Triffids in here):
We even found time to paint our kitchen this rather fetching shade of peacock blue. Gorgeous!

In other news, I have finally ordered a new camera, so hopefully this will be the last batch of shockingly bad photos. From now on, they'll just be fairly bad instead.

Less Than a Week to Go!

We went for a final visit wtih Basil and Parsley this week, and we're now on a 7 day countdown to K-day, being 14th May. I'm SO excited.

Hardly took any pics on this trip, but here's one of Parsley and I having a lovely cuddle. He even purred for me.

Last minute flat-prep photos to follow shortly.

Second Date

Last night we had our second visit with our lovely litter. They're now about 7 weeks old, full of energy and more than a little bit mental. Barrage of pics below...



















Also went on a bit of a mega spending spree on Zooplus this eve, pics to follow on that once it gets delivered. Most excited about the play tunnel!
