Remember Those Itty Bitties?

Back in September, when our friends Koren and Margo came to town for Tea with Bean (and Wylla), we met this young mama cat and her tiny little babies on our tour of the shelter.  The babies were only a couple of days old at the time.

The whole little family went into a foster home, and the wee ones have been growing and thriving.  The babes,  named Koren and Margo,  are happy, healthy, and  about six weeks old now.  

Marguerite from the shelter sent these pictures to me,  and you can see how well they are doing.






MY HOW THEY'VE GROWN!  And goodness, they are adorable, aren't they? 

They've still got a little growing to do, but in a couple more weeks, they should be ready for adoption.  

Thank you so much for sharing these photos, Marguerite! 

Way to grow, kittens. Keep up the good work!

    1. Ha ha! Agreed. Sadly, there is not the proper magic to make that work out well.

  3. Oh so very cute and fuzzy they are! All the moms, cat and human, did an excellent job.

    One of them looks MUCH bigger than the other. Is the bigger one the boy? Or is it just a photo illusion?

  4. Oh good grief!! I almost gave myself a concussion smacking my forehead on my computer screen trying to huff these ADORABLE darlings.

    Thanks a whole big bunch for these photos, Marguerite.

  8. Oh, my. They are adorable and look rather like a fuzzy orange kit-kat who lived with my family of origin. She went by Woodstock (for the bird, not the festival :-)).

  9. I hope the momma has a furever home lined up for her once the kittens are weaned. She's beautiful.

  10. And of course you KNOW you IBKC folk are responsible for these little fluff balls. Because of you, we have the space and extra resources to care for the most vulnerable mommas and newborns, and keep them safe and healthy until they can be fostered. So every little "aww" and squee goes right back to you guys. You rock.

  11. The smaller kitty seems to be a little unsure of this photo taking business and in the 3rd pic she appears to be checking with her sister that everything is still okay.

    Gah...I wish I could afford to take on 2 kitties, these two are adorable.

    1. I don't know if she has yet. She may still be in the foster home with the babies.

  13. So lovely--and I second those posts about the mum. Hope she gets a lovely home soon--she's absolutely beautiful and deserves to be loved and pampered forever.

  14. How sweet!!! Hope momma and babies find their forever homes and live happily ever after.

  15. Unless there is a problem of some kind, the mamas are kept with the babies until the little ones are ready for spay/neuter. Mama goes for surgery too, and all are made available for adoption. I doubt this beautiful girl will have any trouble finding a home. She's gorgeous!

  16. I have a cat named Margo - I was wondering when someone else would get around to using that name! People give me a weird look when I tell them her name
