Thanks very much for the reassurance! I'll just relax and enjoy their antics, then. So far they're not making any noise except for their little chirrup which usually seems to express interest or pleasure, and they both seem to take turns being the chaser. I was just concerned because from my...

Happy New Year everyone! I recently adopted two adolescent kittens, a boy and a girl, who have lived together all their lives (all eight months or so) - first one the street with their feral mother, then a little time in a foster home with lots of other cats, now with me. They're both a little...
