We are definitely slowing down with the number of pictures we are taking, so maybe this will be the last set for a while.  We are starting to get used to their craziness, although they keep finding new ways to be crazy, run like mad and bounce off things.  They literally are off the walls.  [...]

Kitties had a little too much to drink last night.  

I think we have finally decided on Tigger and Roo.  But they will also answer to kitty-cat, purr machine, or hey you!  Actually they don’t respond to anything unless they feel like it.  They are cats, after all.
