Kittens!?!?

Following the abandonment of two kittens on our porch by a local barn cat, we quickly 'adopted them' and soon things went to the kitten side of things.

the first of said plump, insane kittens is a calico of gray, orange, and white known as gremlin, It is the most psychotic of the bunch; constantly clawing everything up. Then there is 'Chalupa' a barn cat that looks remarkably like a 'poofy' Siamese it is far more laid back than the psycho-kitten called Gremlin, but compared to that one the Tasmanian devil seems calm. so on to the first of my 'kitten tails'; my first encounter of the kitten-kind occurred yesterday when I was arbitrarily chosen to construct the holding cell for the kittens, unfortunately the box I chose was not high enough to ensure kitten keeping potential, so I taped the flaps up to stop a potential jail break; the second the porcine rat heard the tape unwinding the bolted across a room with a fair covering of nails, hand tools, and various other tetanus inducing objects, needles to say this resulted in several wounds to my feet. When The kittens were finally detained, they stared muling I, the 'expert pet care technician' that I am had no idea what these hell spawn wanted, they each had devoured a can of wet cat food apiece (easily as much as they 'used' to weigh) they continued this well past midnight . Today the the kittens were 'paying' on the couch whilst I was lying there, and the demonic badgers that they are, began burrowing into the back of the couch , it took several minutes to recover one, but the second one was lost for much longer and it was accompanied with cries of "you lost the kitten" in a joking manner, we had to it the couch over and remove the bottom to recover the muling spawn of our barn cat "spud".
