They are adorable!
I love the Cosmo/Minnie pics. What a couple!

She's showing her some love (kittens knead their mama's bellies when they're nursing...my cats Bobsie and Mandy like to knead my belly--which makes it more acceptable to me to have a belly!).
You can reduce any possible discomfort to Cosmo (kittens claws can be very sharp!) by trimming Minnie's claws. I use a regular nail clipper--large size (there are special claw trimmers for dogs and cats, but I find I have more control, and can better see what I'm doing, with a human fingernail trimmer. Just trim off the thin, sharp ends (and stay away from the pink triangle of blood and nerves).
