Our wishes were granted and we have six, yes SIX, new itty bitty kitties. We think there are four boys and two girls, but one of them is so teeny tiny, it's hard to tell for sure. I took a whole bunch of pictures of them today, but when reviewing them, I'm not sure I got shots of everyone.
They are kind of hard to tell apart right now. There are four that are darker gray with lighter brown markings and two that are light gray with white stripes. They seem to be about four weeks old right now. Only the tiny one is still on the bottle, the rest are eating soft food.
Boy, they sure are sweet little things. Kim, Sue, and I ooh and ahhed over the babies for several hours this afternoon. We have all been kitten-free for a spell. It was so wonderful to hang with kittens again!
Here's a set of photos from today. Please don't ask me who's who because honestly, I don't know. Formal introductions to follow as their names are selected.
Thanks so much for posting the pictures! Has Charlene been introduced to them yet? What does she think?
ReplyDeleteYour blog always makes me smile. Thank you for sharing your big heart with everyone on the web! I hope some day to foster kitties too!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful...Charlene's wait is over!!! They are such adorable kittens. Looking forward to pictures of them as they grow :)
ReplyDeleteThe one with the aqua blankie looks like his tabby "M" is more like a "W".
ReplyDeleteWhat do you think that means???
Charlene is either ecstatic or ignoring them....if she is as much a love as she seems in other posts, she is probably corralling the kits like the pro she is!
Thanks so much for sharing!
Aaaaaaaah! Even if it IS 3:30 am (why am I up, you ask? nevermind) I'm going to make me a cup of tea and enjoy looking at the babies for a while, THEN I'll go to bed. There is a Very Lucky Nest of Kitlings (and a very lucky bunch of avid admirers out here!) THANK YOU, dearling!
ReplyDeleteYay! Welcome kitties! What cute little balls of fluff they are.
ReplyDeleteSix! That's so funny because when I saw the pictures on your flicker I thought there were three, or maybe even two. It's going to wonderful to get to know them if we can ever tell them apart!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see more! They are adorable! Is there anything sweeter than a kitten? I think not!
ReplyDeleteOh, such wonderful little fuzzies! Thanks for sharing updates so soon!
ReplyDeleteThank you, thank you for sharing those pics. No kittens here since June, so even a vicarious fix is appreciated!
ReplyDeleteYAY!!! They are all so sweet. I can't wait until they're named and cuddling with Charlene. It's a good thing there are no torties in this batch (otherwise I would be driving to WA)!
ReplyDeleteAwwwwww... these little faces are SOOOO CUTE!!
ReplyDeleteReminds me of my two monsters when I found them at the same age... bundles of mischief!
Can't wait to see more pics and read stories about the new Menaces - has Charlene met them yet?
Do you know their last name yet? Is there a special way that happens or do you just look at them and know? It seems as if it was quite obvious that the Bouviers were, indeed, the Bouviers. That little one at the bottom looks like a "Henry", or Henrietta to me somehow.
ReplyDeleteAwww, tabbies! My favorite!
ReplyDeleteAw, they're so adorable! It's going to be so much fun to watch them grow up. :)
ReplyDeleteAwwww!! They are such sweethearts. I'm so looking forward to watching them grow and flourish.
ReplyDeleteAww, tabby love for everyone! It's going to be *so* great to watch them grow. :)
ReplyDeleteAHHHH!!!the kittys are here!!!=) my life has been dull w/o any little kitty antics to read abt=) yay!!
ReplyDeleteYes! Have been checking almost every day... so of course I missed the day the darlings arrived.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for more pics of the babes and sweet Charlene (let dear Drewey sleep!). Thanks so much for your blog... it's a smile every day. And my kit pics are getting better from seeing yours!! LOL! Lookin' forward to watching your babies grow!
I'm hoping we can foster our own batch'o'babes again this summer. In the meantime, I get to foster a relative's 4 mo old, while they relocate. Little Simon arrives on Tuesday, so I'll get a tide-over kitten fix. :-)
They are so adorable, especially the little runt.
ReplyDeleteSo happy to see the new babies. I look forward to your blog everyday!
ReplyDeleteThankfully, I know that I am not alone. I have been periodically checking itty bitty daily, waiting on the new arrivals.
ReplyDeleteAnd what a sweet pack of new babies! Charlene must be beside herself!
They are all so sweet!
