Generally speaking things are going quite smoothly, although they have displayed a fondness for chewing through small wires. This meant that I had to spend some time jacketing all of the wires on all of the wall warts in the office\/studio with plastic tubing so that their teething activities wouldn&#8217;t sever the power cords of the wi-fi router, the Ethernet switches, etc.<\/p>\n<p>All of the adult cats have accepted their presence gracefully. Zed and Alfred have been more or less indifferent about them since they spotted them; now Zed plays with them occasionally and Alfred grooms them when they&#8217;re within reach. (Alfred grooms anyone when they&#8217;re within reach.) Edwin felt compelled to hiss and slap them around a bit for a couple of days, but it didn&#8217;t take him long to realize that they were more entertaining than threatening. Shortly after that I think he realized that they have more energy than he does. Madeline seems to think that they still need the occasional whack on the head but maybe she&#8217;s just trying to take on the role of the responsible adult.<\/p>\n<p>I put up a number of photos <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/studionebula\/sets\/72157624643085273\/\">here<\/a>. Many of them were taken while they were still confined to the kitchen. They&#8217;re not easy photographic subjects; when they&#8217;re not sleeping, they&#8217;re moving.
