Heh...poor Eeyore! I especially like that last shot.

Do they seem to be getting any tamer, or are they still hiding and hissing (speaking mostly of brother) when you try to touch them?

Maybe only a little tamer. Lots better when they're in the cage, but I can't handle them outside the cage. ANY stress at all and they 'go native' in a snap. But I will say that even if I can't handle them, they're the most well trained cats I've ever had. I let them out of the cage a couple to a few times a day to run around and get some exercise, and they'll run around and play chase games with Wicket and burn off energy and that's all good, while I clean the cage. I can't approach them in that time, or they'll run and hide, but if I say "OK - back inside", they've learned pretty well to go jump in the cage. They know when I start herding them around, they only safe place in the house is in the cage. Then they go to sleep. :~)
