Vladi Wrestling II

What??? Is my paw touching your tail???

There is no doubt that Vladi is enamored with Tanji. They do have a lot in common: both love to play, both like to "talk" all the time telling us what they are doing, both respond whenever Uschi hollers, and both are big mushy kneaders on the bed in the early morning. Vladi has been instigating most of their contacts, but we notice that Tanji is now looking around for Vladi too.

Vladi watches intently as Tanji slinks by.

Tanji settles down, and Vladi is instantly next to him...

A little paw reaches for Tanj's tail...

The "mitten paw" patting match is on!

Vladi is getting ready to spring...

Tanj tries to defend himself, but it is a lost cause...

Tanj holds on as Vladi kicks and squirms...

It looks like Tanj has Vladi's whole ear in his mouth.
This is scary to watch, but Vladi seems to think its
awesome and Tanji is being super gentle.

Both are clearly enjoying themselves.

They are also getting a bit tired.

Tanji is really smiling, something is up...

Warning: ultra-cute photos ahead!

Tanj grabs Vladi and begins licking...

Vladi holds still, he seems stunned.

Vladi even licks Tanji back a little...

But can't resist a few kicks too!

Tanji just keeps on licking.

There are two cameras shooting now...

Ooooohhhhh, that's the spot!

Vladi looks a little disoriented and
Tanji looks pleased with himself.

Later, the boys are back wrestling again...

and Tanj is nibbling on Vladi's ear - mmmmmmm!

Huggies for the squirmy kitten.

Tanji is being "Mom Cat"
(he even looks a little like their mom, Skye)

Vladi has a really big smile.

This is what he wanted all along...

Later when Vladi is asleep...

Uschi wants to play with Tanji too!

Oh. My. Gosh.

I've been following the adventures of the three boys getting to know each other. Always thought each day was cuter than the day before, and this one takes the cake.

Such beautiful pictures of beautiful cats (kitten), and I love your narrative.

Thank you for sharing it with us.

I'm so happy to see the grooming! Tanji is such a good boy to look out for his little brother -its made us very happy that he is playing and settling in well.
