He discovered that he can get inside our coffee table drawers from underneath.
You're the new momma figure.

They only like me if they are sleepy or just woke up. Otherwise they still run away if I try to pick them up.

I am a little hesitant to ask what happened to the other two. Did they find homes too?
She had a rescue come get them. I hope they can get them calm enough to adopt out.

It is funny that you say that because the two I got acted like they are calm but are total spazes.
I am sure they will get adopted quickly.

So, the babies are starting to get used to the routines of the house. One of which is me going to bed at 8pm during the week. For s***'s and grins I decided to stand in my doorway and call the babies into my room to go to bed (they sleep in my room to stay safe).
Gracie immediately comes running in. I go look for Boone. I find him and was about to put him in the room when Gracie goes running back out. I call Gracie back in and then Boone runs back out.
Decided to get smart and I shut the door after Gracie goes in so I can get Boone. I get him and open the door and Gracie jumps over my foot and is back in the living room. I called for re-enforcements and the family and I go kitten chasing for the next five minutes until they are caught and deposited into my room with the door shut.
I will be so glad when they get a little bigger and I can just leave my door ajar at night.

It takes a goddess to herd cats.

On another note, Boone has picked up a strange (and annoying to Gracie) habit. He suckles Gracie's ears. I mean to the point where her fur is saturated. Growing up we had a cat who would suckle our ears and we just figured she had been taken away from Momma too early. It seems to really comfort Boone though so Gracie obliges. *Side note, Gracie is currently sitting on my shoulder intently watching the letters on the phone screen appear as I type.

Not too sure about these two. More on the durpy side. Both are currently sitting at the end of my bed watching the fan blades go around.I've had a cat once or twice - she's not "watching" the letters on the screen - she's reading them and she knows you're talking about her. Cats are intuitive like that.
Anita's cat Junior did something similar, except it was her fuzzy blanket.
He was a handsome tuxie who made it to 16 years. He was about 12 here.

Doing real good. They love me and only me. If one of the boys or the husband tries to come near them, they run away.

They don't like it which I understand. This weekend I am going to let them have almost free range all day instead of just when I am home. Hopefully they will still sleep with me though. I like that.

I thought about that. That might work.
