...in their own words.

By Kumani:

Before I had Nox and Smokey, before I had Mom and MomDad, all I had in
this world was my sister.

I like to lick my sister!

TED is less scary when I go with Tyche.

By Tyche:

When I chase my tail, catch it, and bite it, it HURTS!  When I chase
my Sister's Tail, Catch it, and bite it, it Doesn't hurt me at all!

My sister gets the chair warm and then I plop there and snuggle her!

Nox and Smokey taught me cat behaviours!  Mom and MomDad are stupid
humans and don't know them!

By Smokey:

Having lots of cats is great cuz Nox is mean an' stuff but the kittens
let me lick 'em.

I taught the kittens my elite survival skillz like how to open the
garbage pail lid, and how if you cry and sound really sad you can get
a bite of pizza.

Kittens eat kitten food.  Kitten food is awesome.  It tastes great and
makes me fat.  The kittens let me eat their leftovers.  Mmmmm.
Leftovers.

By Nocturne:

The kittens distract that cretinous Smokey from disturbing me.

The kittens are submissive unto me, thereby setting a good example for
the foolish human servants.

I shall mold the kittens in mine own image, and they shall sit at my
right and left paw in the new feline world order, in the world that is
to come.
