kittens take showers

i've been saying for days that the kittens need a bath but wasn't quite sure how to go about it.  this morning i decided to hand houndstooth to za husband while he was in the shower.  i was worried she would freak out but she was pretty mellow.  i mean you could tell she wasn't happy about it but she stayed calm, almost catatonic.

i wrapped her up like a little burrito in a washcloth and held her until she was mostly dry.

she was really a good sport about the entire process.



after i put her down mama kitty licked her like crazy which she seemed to enjoy.

it was hilarious watching them.

coffeepot is such a good mom and she loves her little twin.

later in the day we gave houndstooth's siblings a shower in the sink.

this little one was pretty good for his shower too although his expression pretty much says that this wasn't his favorite experience.

this little guy was a sweetie like always and took his shower without much of a fight.

doesn't he have pretty blue eyes?

this little girl fought like crazy.  she liked her shower the least of all of them. 

but she was a fan of the dry off time.  she snuggled right up to me and even fell asleep.

now they are clean and dry and happy.

we ♥ them!
