Settling In....

My sister and I are now beginning to settle into our new routine. We wake up with the sun, then try to wake up the humans so that we can eat breakfast. These humans are so strange; they are not very playful during this fun and exciting time of day. Eventually, though, this really loud and annoying sound comes out of nowhere, and the humans finally awaken. My sister and I have been practicing this "BEEEEEEP BEEEEEP BEEEEEP" sound but we do not have it down just yet.

Once they are awake, there are these things that appear underneath the soft floor they sleep in. These are very fun to catch, but we are scratching our ears as to why, on occasion, the humans make a very loud and sharp sound when you catch one of these things.

After a while of this, the humans begin to move around, and they finally give us some breakfast. Occasionally, the shorter one will let us play in nature for a little bit before we return to this place in which we spend most of our time. It has been nicer in here, as we now have more space to run and play during the day. For some reason, the big room that has the soft ground is blocked when the humans are away or are asleep. This is troubling to us, as the big branches that look out over the trees are in there.

Oscar, you have not told them about your problem? No, Olivia I have not. Fine, then I will.

So, living with Oscar is sometimes annoying. He likes to play much more than I do, and he stinks like butt. When he goes to the bathroom, it sounds and smells like something was run over. I thought that it should be solid, but instead his makes a lake in the sand. Very gross! Ugh! Brothers! Stop biting me you bat!

Do not be jealous that I look sleek like a bat. Of course I like to play, you are only a kitten once in your life. So, anyway, back to our days here. We get to go out to nature at least once per day, and we are able to climb higher and higher into the trees. At least, until a couple of days ago when the humans did something to our paws. Our claws are still there, but we just cannot get as good of a grip on the tree as we used to.

We are both hoping to get into the area with the soft ground, and for our claws to change again so that we can resume our climbing practice.

The trip to?

OSCAR: Things happened so very fast for us to get here. I jumped into this strange looking bag, then suddenly heard this ziiiiiipppppp sound. My sister Olivia quickly came to the side of this bag, and began sniffing and asking if I was ok. These human creatures, a big one with strange bright eyes that come off, and one that is smaller yet still very big to us began to make these very strange sounds. The next thing I knew, my sister Olivia was in the bag with me, and the bag began to fly.

OLIVIA: I was not asking if you were ok, I was wanting what you were eating. These human creatures have the most delicious things to eat.

OSCAR: This is my story, tell yours to someone else.

OLIVIA: Hmmmpf.

OSCAR: Now, where was I. I remember the bag landing on the rocks we used to play on. My mother came racing after us, telling us not to go. We were both telling her that everything is fine, we are just playing. All I can remember after that was the bag flying into a thing that humans seem to ride in, being given some milk in a place surrounded by grass, and lots of loud wind for what seemed to be an eternity.

OLIVIA: What about the part about you crying the whole way?

OSCAR: That was you, uh, stepping on my tail. Sisters are something else.

OLIVIA: Whatever. Anyway, I am telling the story tomorrow, so stay tuned....
