Roxy & Remi - Trial and Error

Explore, explore, explore - that's what new kittens do. Good thing the house is already "kittenproofed". After a day of rest, Roxy is full of energy and Remi is trying to keep up. We can really see thier differences. Roxy is so much more mature - Remi - well, not so much - she hasn't quite figured out the litterbox thing - she had an accident on Daddy while he was reading the paper this morning - oh oh, Daddy was not happy. Roxy has figured out how to jump onto the dining room chairs, climb the back to get on the table, and then make it to the counter from there. Remi watches and tries very hard to copy. The humane society said they are both around 8 weeks old but I really think Remi is younger. Today was spent teaching Remi the litter box. I had never had a kitten that didn't get the litterbox thing right away, so I did some reseach - Here's how it goes... Place Remi in the litterbox.... Hold her paws and show her how to dig the litter, pray she gets it. Basically, that didn't work. I added another litter box so she has more options..... this is nuts. What finally taught her? She watched Roxy, then went right in and took care of business... bet Daddy is glad we got 2 now, huh?
