Fabulous Knapps

I know you're not going to like to hear this news, but today our dear little Knapps will be off at the vet getting their itty bitty bits fixed.    This, of course,  means they'll be departing soon.  

I know.  It's gone so fast.  Really fast.   Faster than any litter of the past, in fact.

They didn't have too much growing to do when they arrived, and they were healthy and social,  so their stay with us is  a brief one.  I know you're all quite attached to this batch so it's going to be hard for all of us to say goodbye.

Every single moment has been golden, and it has been such a pleasure spending time with this special bunch.  Every second they've been here, I've felt loved by them.   They are awesome that way.

They're not out the door yet, so let's enjoy them while we can.    It's so easy to do.   They are fabulous.

    1. I've been trying. It's hard, she always charges the camera.

    2. That's because you're behind it! I can tell that Sylvie adores you.

  2. Second that. I want to see photos of Sylvie's tail before she goes!

    It's sad to see them go so soon ... Cecil's kinda stolen my heart, I admit.

  3. Please tell us there's another batch ready to move in when the Knapps leave, Laurie... I'm not sure what we'll do without kittens again!

  4. No! Not Wiley! Can't you superglue him to Bean's side so that he has to stay?

  5. They are such a sweet and gorgeous bunch of babies. Whoever gives them a forever home will be very lucky.

  6. Oh those pics are adorable. It's heartbreaking to know they must move on ~ but heartwarming to know they've had such a good start in life and will soon have forever homes. Thank you for taking such good care of them.
    Hope their itty bitty ops go well. xx

  7. Well, the fact that they're out the door soon means that they're healthy, happy little kitties, so it's a good thing! They will go on and bring joy to someone else's life very soon.

  8. Noooo!!! Too soon!!
    I knew this bunch would move fast! They didn't have a whole lot of growing to do when they came in.

    Craig really is the kitten whisperer eh?

    I just adore these babies. <3

  12. I never noticed how special Sylvie's tail is!

  13. Awwww, this is my first batch of kittens here and I will miss them!!! But how lovely they will be going to their forever homes. I feel for their surgical procedure, but it is over quick and healing is also fast, bless their little hearts.

  14. Oh noes! I feel like I was just getting to know them! What an awesome bunch!

  15. Cecil's got a crush on Craig. Smart boy!

  16. Oh!!! What a lovely and wonderful set of pictures...!

  17. It's a delightful story, though, to see healthy, beautiful, social kittens find the homes they deserve, thanks to Mama Bean and Laurie's TLC!

  18. Awwwww I love this series with Craig! I hope you'll show him your secret with photographing kitties, so there can be a similar series with you!

    Its going to be hard to say goodbye, Kittie Knapps! You will be making some special people very, very happy. Kisses! Write soon!

  19. I almost wanna lie down on the ground and have a tantrum!

    I sure hope we can see more of Miss Sylvie's tail...maybe while Craig takes some Laurie & the Knapps photos?

  20. I thought they were getting that teenage kitten look, which can only mean it's time for surgery. I hope that we can hear some more wonderful adoption stories about the Knapps.

  21. Love the last picture! A lapful of sleepy kittens. Makes me want to take a nap myself!

    ReplyDelete
  22. What a beautiful series of photos! Just look at that precious little face looking up at Craig! And that sleepy little trio! Oh my goodness. May the stars align just right again so they can find the perfect forever homes.

  23. Oooooh. Lap Nappers always get my heart strings. Or, I suppose, lap Knappers.

  24. Love these photos, love Sylvie's tail, love these precious smudged colored kitties. It has been way too brief a time but I am sure Ms Bean has imparted all the necessary kitteh knowledge they need. I think I feel I really got to know/see this litter because of all the Instagram pictures - I will enjoy that for future litters too. The day they put on their yellow Home tags will be sad but kitten season is in full swing here (as apparently are tornadoes) so I am glad more kitties will have a safe happy home to come stay at while they grow.

  25. Lucky, lucky Craig with a lap'o'Knapps!

  26. I am so in love with Sylvie. I hope her permanent parents will post updates of her so we can watch her grow. I also hope she will be as taken with the permanent parents as she is with Laurie.

  27. They ARE so adorable. We'll all miss them. But what lucky families their adopters will be!
