Every once in a while, I will get a batch of kittens from another foster who can no longer foster their kittens due to travel plans, guests coming to stay who have allergies or just from sheer exhaustion (like this batch).
The kittens' previous foster family were caring for the mommy and 5 kittens and were down to these last two kittens. However, because the fosters lived in a loft, the bathroom was not substantially big enough to house the two kittens, so the kittens had the run of the daughter's bedroom at night. This of course, leads to sleepless nights due to the noise that playful kittens make. After so many of these sleepless nights, you'll start to feel it and if you don't get the kittens on the same sleep pattern as you, then you'll start to get sick (which is what happened to the daughter of this foster family). So, for the sake of their health, they thought it better to pass the kittens onto another foster to take care of.
So that is how I came to foster Tuxie and Stellana, whom I like to refer to as Batman and Robin (although Stellana is a girl).

Although not very cuddly, both Tuxie and Stellana love to jump and sit on my back and chew on my hair. They also love to bump their heads on me when they nestle on the back of my neck, while purring up a storm.
I adore these two and try to kiss them every chance I get.
