I don't know their exact birthday, but they were estimated to be 5
weeks last Oct 15th. After I took them in Nov 6th last year, their
estimated age was increased by my vet, and some who looked at
their first pictures. I figure they were born early Sept 2004.
Scarlett had some tough times ahead, and she's still small, but
doing very well now. Rhett is a monster of a cat. I'm celebrating
this event with a few new pictures to share; they start here:

This picture shows my latest project that I started today. Their
big cat tree is shredded to bits, so I'm rewrapping with sisal
rope. This is just the start, but I never expected such a big job
of it!

PS, they really are fabulous, look at those coats! Looks like Bonnie
has learned to tolerate them. And how is Shamrock and his mysterious
head? ;)

What I find amazing is how their coat patterns are almost
identical, though Scarlett is a little more stripey and Rhett is
more spotty. Their faces mirror each others down to dots on their
cheeks. The > on their cheeks is in the same places, and their
broken M's match!
> Looks like Bonnie has learned to tolerate them.
She adores Rhett. Scarlett has a tendency to be a bit mean to
her.
> And how is Shamrock and his mysterious head? ;)
LOL! I haven't taken as many pics of the kittens exclusively like
I used to, so his head hasn't shown up in pictures unexpectedly
these days.

They sure have! They're very content, but still don't like strangers.
They're getting better when I have friends over, but all in all,
they'd rather hide and peek their heads out unless it's just me here.
I wish they'd get braver, but I don't expect them to. Shamrock is
the strange one when it comes to people over - he loves every one.

They know they are. :) They thank you for the happy purrday wishes!
If they liked shrimpies, they'd get some. I cooked a rib eye on the
grill tonight and saved some for all, and Scarlett had some, Shamrock
did, but Rhett and Bonnie shunned it. Their loss. LOL

They are gorgeous. And that is about the best used cat tree I've ever seen.

Hehe. The thing is the studiest thing I've ever seen but it's
shredded! I find clumps of that blue carpet everywhere. The
sooner I replace the carpet with sisal the better!

Bonnie gets along with them great! She adores Rhett and always has
to be touching him. Scarlett sometimes chases her when the boys
chase her; Bonnie doesn't like being chased. But she doesn't
retreat under my bed when the kittens chase her like she does when
Shamrock chases her. I guess she remembers when they were tiny
kittens and they aren't as much of a threat. Honestly, Christine, I
don't think she understands when Shamrock gets so mean to her
because he adored her so when she was still in the cage, and all
that time when Shadow was still alive. Shamrock changed toward her
when Shadow died. Bonnie still has to be in the same room as
Shamrock, even now. She follows him like a "shadow". Funny. I
called her Baby Shadow when she was still a feral outside.

LOL at the pic with Shamrock among the stuffed cats. Reminds me of this

Happy birthday, Rhett and Scarlett :-)
That post will look awesome when the sisal is all done. It is a huge
job, I know from when Dennis and I made our floor to ceiling
scratching post. The sisal wrapped around the house 2 times! It was
a 2 person job to get it on there. Wrapping, and twisting and
untangling and gluing at the same time and putting in the occasional
nail...ugh, glad it's done!
