Yes, they have kept me hopping! I can't contain them in their pen anymore as they climb out. As you can see, they found one of my yarn baskets. They are eating kitten kibble now, but it's hard to keep ma and pa away when the food is out. I haven't got them box trained yet, but it will happen soon and I have a rudimentary shallow box with litter for them. They haven't quite figured out that it's where I want them to poop.
Names: Bootsie, Jamie, Seamus, Peanut and Smoky. Still haven't figured out their genders though, lol.
Cat tax paid! Happy turkey day everyone!

They are pretty quick to catch on. Even the feral kittens I've brought inside figured out where to 'go'.

I've got a resource hoarder too, the biggest kitten. He will growl and put the paw out if anyone, including me, tries to touch the kibble.

They kept pooping on one side of the doorway while the littler box was on the opposite side. So I moved it. Problem solved.
