Avatar 😼 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:48am Will the Sound Guy:

Good morning Handy, hope the little shredders are behaving themselves most of the time...
Avatar 😼 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:49am Handy Haversack:

Well, so far, the music has driven Goblin and Bugbear into a furious violent chase around the apartment, menacing the plant and each other. But I rather suspect the same might have happened no matter what was on the radio!

Will, they go from this sort of blade whirlwind phase to intense cuddling in a matter of nanoseconds! They have also discovered looking out the window (and Goblin discovered climbing the curtains).
Avatar 😼 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:51am Will the Sound Guy:

It's a Kitty be kitty world in there..
Avatar 😼 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:55am Will the Sound Guy:

Our TyTy loves to zoom around, fly into his tunnel system, then just stare out various windows and doors... Then back at it

You know what was not designed with the idea of kittens in mind? Fancy sewn-in ribbon bookmarks. Never stood a chance.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:59am Doug in JC:

Good morning Handy!

Thanks Micah! The cats have calmed down finally
Avatar 😼 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:59am Will the Sound Guy:
