Well, after almost 5 years of Allessandra and Aurora (and their Brothers and Sister) incessantly asking and asking and asking,

Andrea and I'd finally gave in!

We'd decided they are old enough to keep them so this was their 6th Birthday present!!

Patches

and

Misty on the left (that's her sister Patches on the right)

 

They are both 6 weeks old females.

Allessandra named both of them.

She was:

"I am naming her Patches,

and this one is Misty!!"

(not that any of us adults, or her sisters and brothers, had any say in it)

Kittens! What a great present, the girls must be happy

Kittens! What a great present, the girls must be happy

They are all very happy!

I was trying to sleep but them kittens apparently are nocturnal creatures.

LOL yeah, they will keep you awake at night. I once had a Siamese kitten who managed to chew through my leather watch strap while I was sleeping

Oh! I am an extreme cat lover myself! Those two fluffy precious angels are gorgeous! Oh you are so very lucky. Alessandra gave them beautiful names. Patches and Misty. <3

Wonderful names for those kittens, they'll keep the girls busy in just trying to catch them.

Nice kittens! Not exactly the bundles of joy I originally thought this thread would be about.

Purrfect names for them as well.

They kept me up last night.

I am not used to hearing noises in the house at night when everyone's sleeping.

Those kittens are adorable! What great names for them. Love their coloring.

We went to Petco on Saturday for Cats Adoption Day.

They had cats and kittens of all ages, sizes and colors.

Allessandra saw Patches and right away she said:

"That's the one! That's the one! I am going to name her Patches!"

Allessandra is very assertive and bossy - a bit like her Mother.

LOL!

p.s. It was my idea to get 2 kittens because I didn't want to break them up with them being sisters and 2 kittens for 5 kids is better than 1 kitten for 5 kids.

I hope your wife doesn't see that!

Good idea, more than 1 pet for them all to share. We started out with a guinea pig, but she was (unknowingly) pregnant. So we had 3 guinea pigs for 5 kids. That was a bit much!

Misty enjoying some quiet time while the children are at school.

 

Misty says: "This is MINE now!"

 

Patches!

You know you are not allowed on the bed!

That innocent clueless look won't get you out of trouble!

They are already climbing and jumping on everything, mainly me when I am lying on the sofa trying to get some shuteye.

LOL!

They see the Angels do it so they do the same thing.

Misty and Patches are now officially 6 1/2 months old.

This weekend they are both going to the vet.

LOVE the kitties

Bad Bad Bad Kitties!!

I got up just now and there was toilet paper everywhere on the floor and carpet of the kitchen, dining room, living room, guest bath, den, staircase and even on the sofa and on my computer table.

Bad kitties! I used to have a Siamese cat who liked to unravel the toilet rolls and make a big mess too

About 10 days ago, we woke up to find they had turned newspapers into confetti.

Then there was the one night they got hold of one of the extra alarm remote for one of our SUVs and were playing with them.

I must had gone out 4-5 times trying to figure out why the alarm on the SUV kept going off.

The reason we didn't hear them play with the remote is there were no keys attached to it.

I had a thread for it that I posted the day they were born but it seems the forum did some clean house and deleted it.

My first born twin girls Allessandra and Aurora turned 10 years old 2 days ago on Wednesday.

Also their kitties Misty and Patches are now 4 years old.

Time flies, doesn't it?

Happy birthday girls! 

Happy Birthday!

Thank you!

I've send y'all photos either to your LCO inbox or your FB PM.

WOW!

This is what we need.

TIred of reminding the kids it's time to do their kitties chores.
