More bed-making fun

I'm used to having Amelia help me make the bed. I'll get the sheets and
blanket arranged, then Amelia jumps up on the bed before I pull up the
comforter. She provides a cute meowy-lump that offers up sound effects
whenever I pet the lump.

Yesterday morning, though, things went a little differently. As I
prepared to pull up the comforter Amelia jumped up on the bed like
usual, followed by Tabitha Fluffybutt. Before Amelia could run under the
comforter, Tabitha found herself a spot. Amelia gave me a disgusted look
that seemed to say "I am NOT going to share my undercover time with that
little fluffy interloper" and departed. I then proceeded to play a
little with the Tabitha-lump. Samuel R kitten then joined us, and had
great fun pouncing on the sister lump. After a couple of minutes I
figured Tabitha might be getting tired of being Sammy's pounce target.
so I flipped back the corner of the comforter under which Tabitha was
hiding, and flipped it over Sammy instead. Tabitha then got to take a
turn pouncing on her brother. Both seemed to enjoy it.

Making the bed just turned into a *much* longer process.

LOL, Sammy loves being a bed-bump, while Little Bit hates the idea of
being covered up (by herself anyway, she likes to cuddle under the
blankets with someone, though). It works out, though, as Little Bit
does enjoy pouncing on the Sammy bumps.
