A true football fan

Bekka seems to enjoy the Euro2008 (the football tournament) as much as I do. When there's a match going on she runs down to the TV set and parks herself in front of the screen. She follows the players and the ball with her paws, dancing all over the screen. It makes it a bit hard to follow the game but she is so cute! I am sure she will watch the final with us tomorrow. I hope Spain will win.

A hairy cutie pie

Who said a hairy lady cannot be cute? Beverly is hairy indeed and her fur is getting thicker every week now. As you can see her fur collar is getting more visible. She is a charming cutie pie :-)

The thrilling roe deers

Bekka is now a fine-looking 5 months old kitten. She weighs about 2,7 kilos and is still bigger than her sister. Bekka loves watching the garden and everything that goes around there. The roe deers are especially interesting. Now she has discovered that they also make sounds. And very loud and odd ones :-) She doesn't quite know what to make of this. It is scary and exciting at the same time. This photo was taken just a few days ago.

Here comes the sun

Beverly loves the sun! She often spends her mornings on the balcony, in the sun, watching over her realms. This photo was taken just a few days ago.

Gaining weight

Both have gained 140 g in the last 8 days. Which is similar to previous weeks.

Beverly: the wild beauty

Beverly is still smaller than Bekka. She weighs about 2 kilo now. She is very slim and has long legs. Beverly loves to play and she often get really wild, jumping up and down and everywhere :-) She loves to play hide and seek and if you don't watch out she'll sneak up on you from a corner...
Bekka sometimes think she is a bit too much and withdraws in a corner to take a quick nap. Beverly is the most beautiful and charming kitten you can imagine!

Bekka: the lion and the bear

Bekka has grown the past weeks. She now weighs about 2.6 kilo. Her fur is fantastic! When I hug her it feels like hugging a teddy bear. And sometimes she looks like a teddy bear too. And other times times I think she looks like a lion. I guess it depends on the situation :-) Bekka is the kindest, sweetest kitten you can ever imagine. She shows a great patience with her wild sister, Beverly, who loves to sneak up on her wherever she goes.

The Deer Watcher

Yesterday Bekka saw a big deer poking around in our garden. I think it was the first time she saw one, at least in our garden. She was absolutley fascinated by the deer. She watched it closley, then ran away to hide and came sneaking back again. She simply couldn't resist watching the deer. I guess she found it quite different from the crows and other birds she loves to watch.

This is a photo of Bekka from yesterday. As you can see, she loves to play :-)

20 weeks today!

Bekka's splish splash game continues. She loves it but I am not too happy about it. As my previous strategy didn't work out (lifting her away when she started), I have continued to plan B. This means I have placed the water fountain on the biggest, and I am sorry to say the ugliest, tray we have in the house. By this I hope to at least spare the kitchen floor :-)
Today our kittens are 20 weeks old. I sure they have grown but to us they seem as small as they were four weeks ago when they moved in with us. Happy Birthday darlings! I managed to take some photos of them today as they were taking their afternoon nap. Beverly is making herself comfy in the sofa (how cute can you get!!!) and Bekka is resting by the window. Isn't she lovely!!!
