Smarts, non-smarts, and teeth

So, Simba seems to be a fairly smart cat.

The laser pointer, aka Mr. Dot "lives" in the cat tree. It always starts from there and ends there. Both kittens enjoy chasing Mr. Dot.

Yesterday Simba started standing by the hole in the cat tree and howling, then looking at us, then howling. Mr. Dot came out to play.

On the other hand, this is the same kitten who seems to think he can outrun the bad taste in his mouth. I give him his meds and he takes off at full speed around the room. Every time.

Yesterday morning we found what we thought was a blood spot on Boo's back. We could find no wound on him or Simba and neither seemed injured or in discomfort. Talking to the Humane Society lab we think what happened was Simba lost a baby tooth, possibly when either licking or wrestling with Boo. They are the right age for it.

Their eyes are clearing up. Their purrs are also getting less rough as their lungs clear. They purr a lot so this has been easy to follow!
