Sunday they pretty much hid under the bed, only coming out to eat and when Don lay on the floor and enticed them out. Monday they were a bit braver. They would let me pick them up, although not too thrilled about it. They like chasing the paper and foil bits tied on ribbon, and like the ribbon ends best. Licorice is very curious, and wants to meet them. They aren't too sure yet. A little hissing over the baby gate, and a lot of hiding.
Tuesday they seem to be making themselves at home. The drawer under the bed has been chosen over the box with the blanket, so Don spread the blanket in there. It is also the perfect spot to sneak up on the ribbon toy, or to pounce on a sister!
Don named the slightly fuzzier one Sara. She is a little more skittish, The other one is a bit smaller, and much braver. I decided she is Casey or maybe Kelsie. (Still thinking). Irish for 'brave one".
They are fast getting used to the flash on my camera. Yes, I have been taking pictures. But it is also the only was I can look under the bed to figure out where they are. This afternoon after a couple of shots, they come out to visit and play. May become a pavlov's bell effect?? Sara will even settle into my lap and purr, but Kelsie is in a hurry to get down .....
Here are a few pictures ........

Me, peeking w. the camera to see where they were:
The ribbon was more fun than the paper!
I liked the blur I got from shooting in low light, but here is one w. flash so you can see them better.
