Dr K has been finding the new kitten quite stressful. As such, she felt it would be helpful to share some words of wisdom so that others don't have to suffer the way she has. I have drawn some lovely pictures to go along with her advice:
Dr K says: If you want to keep something safe never let it dangle. As part of this rule never hang smalls on the bottom level of the clothes horse. (I think 'smalls' must be her underpants. Mine definitely aren't small)
Dr K says: If you let the fur kids in the bedroom at night keep all naked limbs (especially feet) under the bed covers at all times
Dr K says: Create and maintain adequate air lock systems the front and back doors of the house.
Dr K says: Block up all small holes or air gaps in everything... literally everything... Best to have a divan beds if at all possible.
Dr K says: Double check the dishwasher / washing machine / tumble dryer for small furry animals before starting a wash cycle. (It's one way to make sure they're clean...)
Dr K says: Be ready with the poop scoop and air freshener at all times! (I thought these were 'kitten' rules!)
Dr K says: Never walk around the house in bare feet. There will be all sorts of things around the house to step on (or in). (Heh... Higgins pooed on Dr K's foot the other day!)
Dr K says: Don't expect to be able to wear tights until the kitten is at least a year old. (Damn.)
Dr K says: Never open the wardrobe before bedtime... they will be impossible to extract, but will scrabble around in there for hours!
I have pulled all of these rules together into a single, helpful poster that you can print out and keep:
Finally, I have drawn an extra picture that will help you identify potential ambush locations for your kitten. Can you spot them all?

I'd have to add not to wear a skirt with tassels on :)
