The 11 kittens are now seven weeks old and can play by themselves,

0:00:350:00:39

so Mum, Coco, takes the opportunity for a bit of 'Me' time.

0:00:390:00:44

And this 'Me' time involves me stuffing my face

0:00:440:00:47

with a tonne of biscuits.

0:00:470:00:49

I'm coming for you, biscuits.

0:00:490:00:52

You can come and watch but you're not getting any.

0:00:520:00:56

You see that, it says, "Cat food".

0:01:000:01:03

Well, I'm a cat and I want some food.

0:01:030:01:08

Doh! Can someone take these lids off?

0:01:080:01:11

There must be something else I can eat.

0:01:120:01:15

A half-opened tin of tuna,

0:01:150:01:16

some prime Scottish smoked salmon even cornflakes, anything really.

0:01:160:01:21

No?

0:01:220:01:24

SQUEAK This cat is not a happy bunny.

0:01:240:01:30

The owner's children have come home from school

0:01:320:01:35

and they want to play with the kittens.

0:01:350:01:38

And the kittens are more than happy to oblige.

0:01:380:01:41

Although it's important to not over exert them

0:01:410:01:44

as they tire quickly during play with humans.

0:01:440:01:47

The pink mouse, that's my favourite.

0:01:470:01:50

I love this thing as well.

0:01:540:01:59

And now a finger to play with.

0:01:590:02:01

I wonder if I'm allowed a quick nibble on it? He's got nine more.

0:02:010:02:05

The kittens need to learn that human hands are not toys for playing with.

0:02:050:02:09

They're for providing food, socialising and holding things.

0:02:090:02:13

All right, then, I won't bite it.

0:02:130:02:15

Clear off, sunshine, this thing's mine.

0:02:280:02:30

Whatevs. I'm bored now.

0:02:380:02:40

Time for the kittens to get a bit of pampering.

0:02:400:02:43

Touching their paws, ears and mouth gets them used to human hands.

0:02:430:02:47

And the kittens are lapping it up.

0:02:470:02:50

First it was playtime and now we're being stroked.

0:02:500:02:53

I don't want to ever leave this house.

0:02:530:02:55

Well, that's a pity because in a few weeks

0:02:550:02:58

the kittens will be off to new homes, so the owner is taking photos

0:02:580:03:02

to see if anybody's interested in taking them on.

0:03:020:03:05

Mum, Cleo, checks everything and then the first kitten poses for a photo.

0:03:050:03:09

Try and look cute for the camera.

0:03:090:03:12

I always look cute, I'm a kitten.

0:03:120:03:15

Is this my best side?

0:03:150:03:17

Don't forget the flash and don't give me red-eye.

0:03:200:03:23

Shall I pout or just look natural?

0:03:250:03:28

Oi puss, it helps if you look at the camera.

0:03:300:03:33

Maybe take that one again,

0:03:370:03:39

-or you're going to be the last kitten to be picked.

-Bored now.

0:03:390:03:43

But as we know, these kittens can't keep still unless they're sleeping.

0:03:430:03:48

Timber!

0:03:480:03:49

Photo-bomb! Photo-bomb!

0:04:000:04:03

Whoops, timber again.

0:04:070:04:08

Don't be shy, come out and say, "Cheese!"

0:04:140:04:18

You said cheese and this doesn't taste anything like cheese.

0:04:180:04:23

It wasn't me, it was my sister, she looks exactly the same as me.

0:04:260:04:30

Ha. There is a definite advantage

0:04:300:04:32

to you not being able to tell us apart.

0:04:320:04:35

One of the owner's children wants to send an e-mail to let people

0:04:370:04:41

know that the kittens are looking for homes.

0:04:410:04:44

She types, "Kittens for rehoming."

0:04:440:04:46

But she thinks rehoming isn't quite the right word.

0:04:460:04:50

How about, "Kittens needing a loving home."?

0:04:520:04:55

Yeah, keep it simple like that.

0:04:550:04:58

She wants the kittens to go to good homes

0:05:010:05:04

where they'll be well looked after.

0:05:040:05:06

She adds some pictures and now has a flyer that can be e-mailed to

0:05:060:05:10

anyone interested in getting a kitten.

0:05:100:05:12

OK, I'm on the computer, now where's this mouse they come with?

0:05:120:05:17

Meanwhile, poor Coco. Instead of getting fed, she's getting fed up.

0:05:210:05:25

This food does have a best-before date, you know?

0:05:260:05:30

The kittens are playing a variety of games on the sofa.

0:05:310:05:35

They're at the age now where they can run, pounce,

0:05:350:05:38

leap and entertain themselves.

0:05:380:05:41

There's hide-and-seek behind the cushions.

0:05:410:05:44

Let's hope the owner doesn't come in and sit down.

0:05:440:05:48

This kitten's trying out her balance.

0:05:490:05:51

They use their tails to help them with that.

0:05:510:05:55

Yeah, you might need to work a bit on that.

0:05:550:05:58

If you're thinking of a name for me, how about Tarzan.

0:06:000:06:04

Weeeeee. Any more of this and I'll need a wee.

0:06:060:06:09

Luckily, us cats always land on our feet.

0:06:110:06:14

The kittens are loving play time, Mum, Cleo, less so.

0:06:140:06:20

Hurry up and send that e-mail out, I need some peace and quiet.

0:06:200:06:24

Good news Coco, it looks like you're going to get some food at last.

0:06:290:06:34

Oh, about time.

0:06:340:06:35

I was about to send out an e-mail wanting a new home for myself.

0:06:350:06:40

What? Just the one scoop?

0:06:400:06:42

Have you put me on a diet?

0:06:420:06:45

Oh goody, chunky food.

0:06:470:06:49

Just the four packets, I don't want to overdo it. Purr-fect.

0:06:490:06:54

Hold on Gutsy, don't be greedy. Let's take it downstairs.

0:06:550:07:00

Yeah, but the other cats are downstairs and they'll eat it.

0:07:010:07:05

-I told you so.

-Everyone has smelt the food and has come to

0:07:100:07:14

tuck in. The kittens are getting through four small meals a day now.

0:07:140:07:19

Before long everyone is eating, everyone that is except poor Coco.

0:07:190:07:24

I'm going to see if he left the lid off the biscuits.

0:07:250:07:29

What's next for Coco, Cleo and their 11 kittens?

0:07:310:07:34

Hopefully, I'll get some food.

0:07:350:07:38

See you next time.

0:07:380:07:40

If you want a cat or a kitten, it's a

0:07:440:07:46

big responsibility and if you want an idea of the commitment it will

0:07:460:07:50

take then check out the Meet the Kittens page on the CBBC website.
