As the kitties have gotten larger they have, as most kitties will, begun to take issue with the manufacturer's recommendations for daily food allowance. Unfortunately for us, they begin to take issue at 3 AM. Their usual time for expressing their displeasure used to be 4 AM which is the time that we get up anyway so it wasn't a problem, but now that their rumbling little tummies wake them earlier, the game is on.
First they began to play "attack that toe". A game that I taught them when they were cute little monsters and I was suitably armored in layers of blankets. Now that Summer approaches, that game has quickly lost it's appeal for me as the layers of protection have diminished. When they attacked HIS feet, my husband unceremoniously dumped them off of the bed. Then they began to race across the bed playing the "thundering herd of elephants" game of Psychokitty fame. After a few mighty slams into the bedroom wall, The Bearded One ejected them from the bedroom. Unfortunately for us, Kimiko is aware that our doors do not fit the doorjams tightly and has learned how to "knock" on the door by throwing her furry little 9 pound body into it...
I think that we're going to lose this battle.
