Before I get into the progress for today, here is some cuteness for you to enjoy!
Seeing three of four siblings with their mama is adorable enough. Seeing mama giving kisses to a kitten that showed up just yesterday just melts my heart!
The only down side is, the mother seemed to be leading the kittens (including the grey one!) away from the house.
The kittens, however, seem to really like the sun room and keep going back there on their own, to nap or have a bit of food.
Still, today I’ve only seen two kittens from the grey litter. I think the mama might be Junk Pile, but I’m not sure.
As I was finishing up for the day outside, I spotted Broccoli’s two, playing by the garden shed. They run away and hide when I come near, with is sad. I’d hoped handling them when they were smaller would have made them less anxious. At their size, if I do manage to pick them up, I’m taking them to the sun room, too. They are large enough and old enough that they might just leave and go back to the shed on their own. Or they might decide soft beds and easy access to food, plus other kittens to play with, is much preferable to the shed!
While giving the outside cats a light afternoon feeding, several mamas were on the cat house roof while I pet the boys. It looks like Caramel has at least three active nips. I could only see two on Adam, but she doesn’t give me much chance to see. Junk Pile also has at least two active nips. Slick (aka: Octomom) also had two that I could see.
We will probably have more kittens showing up by the house over the next few weeks!
