An update on the kittens.

[black_hat_cat]

The kittens' eyes are open now; they should be able to hear in a week or so. They're at a healthy weight. Leo is raising them well. Ilario is interested in the kittens, but he doesn't interact with them or their mother much and likely won't until the kittens are more independent - right now, he would only get in the way

...aww, you already introduced Hattori to them? What's he think? We still need to show them to Striker and Sniper though, too!

[black_hat_cat]

By "introduced" I mean that they've seen each other. It wasn't a particularly exciting event.

[warriorothesea]

Oh. Well...still. Does he know which one is his? I mean...yours?

[black_hat_cat]

Yes. He wanted to get closer, but I didn't want to let him in case he accidentally hurt one.

Haha this post is like an OFFICIAL UPDATE. It has like a SHIP'S LOG sort of air about it.

[black_hat_cat]

It's an official kitten update.

[deadgirldropout]

You're kind of adorable.

[black_hat_cat]

...Well, it is.

[key_destination]

Do they all have names yet?

[black_hat_cat]

No, only two of them.

[key_destination]

Oh...Shouldn't Leo be the one to name them?

[black_hat_cat]

Cats don't really name their children the way people do. They tend to label each other by physical characteristics or behaviors, but it's all rather informal, sort of like referring to an acquaintance as "the one with the brown hair".

Zoro's is at a little bit too healthy of a weight, I think, haha.

Leo really is doing a good job!

[black_hat_cat]

She does tend to muscle her way to the front of the line, insomuch as a two-week-old kitten is capable of muscling.

[serving_love]

Yeah, but it shows. S'cute, though.

...Hey, more than two of the kittens have names!

[black_hat_cat]

Do they?

[soul_and_scar]

Heh, all you people have kittens on the brain. Just wait till they all grow up and turn bratty.

[black_hat_cat]

We've had kittens on this ship before.

And you are?

[soul_and_scar]

Doesn't mean they're not going to be little brats or not.

Kansuke. You?

[black_hat_cat]

We can handle it in the event that they are.
