Yeah, well, I got two kittens a while ago, now they're like great big bushy lynxes.
Or - well, they're bigger now, at least. Still just four months old or so.

A colleague's step-daughter's cat got a few kids a few weeks before the step-daughter herself was popping out a kid herself, and I've been fond of cats all along, and since this colleague of mine happened to know this, she convinced me to take a cat in. And I did, but I'm no different from those other people who think "well, but won't she be lonely when I'm at work and all?" and so I requested two. Two girls. And that I got.

So they're called Spott and Spe - or in Norwegian - Spott og Spe.

Spott (from English "spot") is so called because of a spot on her forehead, and Spe (from Norwegian "sped") is so called because she was a bit shy the first couple of days (and she's still not quite an philanthropist), and they're called Spott and Spe from the Norwegian expression "spott og spe", which means something along the lines of "deride and harass" (ref. the pillory).

Returned from a fourteen-day canoe hike the Sunday before last, and was shocked to see how much they had grown.

Anyway, posted a pic of Spott and will post one of Spe after a few rounds of BF2142 - if I remember.
