Title: BW - A new home for our cats

On the first day after she gave birth to four kittens, we placed our cat Tziki and kittens in a room where we currently store various tools, materials, and everything we might need. This room was originally used as stable for horses, but later it constantly changed its purpose, mainly for keeping various animals. After the kittens grew up and started eating dry food, I had to think of and create a space that is outside the room. For that purpose, I used the walled space at the end of the house, on which I installed a wooden roof and placed one pallet for the door.

There is just enough space left between the pallet and the walls so that the kittens can enter and exit unhindered. Inside there is a large plastic crate and a blanket on which they are used to sleeping. And outside in front, I leave them food and water. On the wall about a meter high, their mother spends most of her time observing the surroundings, watching over them and protecting them from danger. Considering that the yard is without a fence, various animals that could injure them can easily enter their new home. Like a sphinx at the entrance, Tziki awaits them first. Unless she falls asleep from boredom.

Inside, huddled together, the kittens rest for most of the day, until they are offered food. Then they leave the house and all stick their heads in the food bowl. They are so voracious that they spill most of their food around.

While everyone is fighting for a bite, someone has the idea to try to suck some milk.

For some time now, Tziki has not nursed them unless the smallest of them, the black kitty, has tricked her into taking her tit in her mouth.

After eating, kittens are very active. Then their training begins. First, they jump on each other for a while, sneaking at each other. Then they finish the rest of the food before going on an imaginary hunt. Although they are still small, they are very fast and agile.

Their claws are of satisfactory size and sharpness.

It is very interesting to watch them sneaking and jumping on each other's necks and hunt for various grasses with their paws.
