introducing our kittens

We got our kittens on Monday. It felt like Christmas morning.

This here is Verna. Named after my Grandma Harrington. She is tiny and meek and seems a little nervous.

This here is Velma. Named after my Grandma Bredberg. Is it offensive to name kittens after your beloved grandma's? Clearly, I think it is an honor. Plus, what are the odds that my grandma's both had stellar v-starting first names?

   
These girls came from the same litter, but Velma is about twice as big as Verna. And Velma is very determined to get out of her nice plastic home, while Verna seems more determined to practice her pouncing on Velma's back.

My favorite part of the day today was hearing Ivar say, "no, no Velma. You cannot get out. You stay in your home, Velma."
