Czarny and Rudy would have to write that book. My writing talent does not extend to children's books.
Today was a flurry of moving furniture, rolling up and turning an area rug, then vacuuming and shampooing said rug. The moment the vacuum turned on, the kittens vanished. When the carpet shampooer turned on, they couldn't get any further under the bed.
The big thing was last night. I finally found some batteries for the cat laser toy. Boy, did these two go nuts. Completely exhausted them just by running that little light from one point in the room to another, both cats hot on its trail. Then it broke... We'll go get a new one in a few days.

Today was also getting the decorations out and deciding which ones are truly kitten resistant. The few we've hung on the tree don't seem to have garnered any kitten attention -- which is good. At the moment, they are more interested in flying leaps from the floor onto the love seat glider back, and sleeping on top of it. Czarny just made that open mouth look that indicates he smelled something bad. I wonder if one of them peed on the love seat afghan. Again. Will check -- don't need to be shampooing the love seat two days before the big party.
Rudy is laying on my leg, right where it's hard to type, so I'll quit and pry his claws out of my knee. Later, y'all.
