Mindy, mom to Pip, Warren and Gaetano Fortunto was kind enough to share some pics of her grown up babes. She's always sending me updates and it's clear these three bring her a tremendous amount of joy.
I know I say this with every alumni update, but I can hardly believe how huge they've become. In my mind, when they leave us, they remain kittens. It's always kind of a shocker to see them all grown up.
Thanks so much for sharing, Mindy.
They are huge but still beautiful!! I wonder if Gaetano still loves to make biscuits????
ReplyDeleteHow on earth can they have grown so quickly? Wow, they are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteLook at how big they've gotten! Warren is so handsome. Pippa is absolutely stunning with her angular face and markings. And there's my all-time favorite IBK Gaetano, looking like he's trying to knead Pippa's face.
ReplyDeleteI've been meaning to say for a while-- when you post alumni pictures, would it be possible to put a kitten shot in the same post so we can all boggle at how much they've grown?
ReplyDeleteFor a quick link to the kittens, click on one of their labels at the bottom of the post.
ReplyDeletePlus the fact the Fortunatos are the kittens in the blog header....
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely kitties they turned out to be too :)
How nice to see them so healthy and happy.
ReplyDeleteawwwww!! they are so adorable!!!!!!! i love how cute they have grown up to be!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI didn't see them when they were kittens but they sure are beautiful now!!
ReplyDeleteOh they are just adorable! I love Pippy's markings. So strong. Warren and Gaetano have a place in my heart too.
ReplyDeleteThey look so happy. Warms my heart to see this.
They were adorable wee babies and now they're stunningly gorgeous kitties. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's such a blessing when littermates who loved each other can go on to be big beautiful kitties who love each other!
ReplyDeleteWow what huge kitties! So much more to love. They look very happy in their home and well cared for. Thanks for posting the update.
ReplyDeleteSO BIG!!
ReplyDeletehow lovely to see 3 cats who LIKE each other! unlike mine who hiss and swat. but they are not littermates, nor ibkc alumni, so we're destined for doom.
anything on luigi and dom?? not to pick faves, but little luigi was quite a doll.
ReplyDeleteHow adorable!
ReplyDeleteQuestion, do the new parents re-name the bittys?
Wonderful to see how close they are - how much they clearly love one another. What a happy home with these three kitties in it! Thank you so much for the update.
ReplyDeleteBig thanks to Mindy!! It's wonderful seeing them again. It's great to see the handsome adults they've become! And, I do love the pics that show they still love to play! (#3 above is great! Cool-spaz-cool!)
ReplyDeleteWow, I <3 their markings! They're gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI love the updates! And especially those gorgeous boys!
ReplyDeleteNever say that's our Pippa? She's gorgeous - what a lady! And I add my wondering if Gaetano is still the adamant little biscuit-kneader he was (like the time he kneaded his sleeping brother into the sofa, poor thing!)? I'm glad for the update. What a treasure to have littermates who adore one another! My two aren't related by birth, so it's always sad for me when I don't see them cuddling up together.
ReplyDeletePippy's a very exotic looking tabby- I guess it's her triangular head and BIG ears. They've all grown up into beautiful cats- though I too am shocked at how quickly this happened.
ReplyDeletethey look great!
ReplyDeleteThey are so big and beautiful!
ReplyDeleteStupendously beautiful kitties!
ReplyDeleteGaetano is still my fave, but all IBK's are sweet.
Sigh...back to class!
