Tatters' Baby Cats

All of the babies have been adopted, and Tatters is getting spayed on June 14th. Thanks to everyone who emailed me or came to see the babies, and thanks to those of you who took these furballs into your life.

Breaking news: not only are these kittens free to a good home, they are going to the vet tomorrow and will be wormed, shot, and spay/neutered! I will be home this Memorial Day weekend; if anyone would like to come over to meet the remaining kittens, email me at lynxfeather@yahoo.com!

The nursing sequence is up, and the adventure of Harley & the laundry basket. Still more to come!

Just for the record: I have 4 spayed/neutered cats in addition to Tatters. She showed up on my doorstep, a half-starved stray. She gained weight, started becoming affectionate (to me, if not the other cats), and at some point I realized that I wasn't going to be finding her another home; she was staying with me. I didn't get her spayed in time, partially because I didn't realize she had gone into heat. As soon as her kittens have homes, I am having her spayed. :)

Fizzgig m Adopted by Winter Wren, in Illinois.

How can I describe a cat with fur so long and soft it resembles feathers, who is twice as large as his siblings, and seems to be permanently mellow? He is so cute it boggles the mind. I'm not sure what his personality will turn out to be; he is so mellow that it is hard to tell. I believe that he was the kitten turning somersaults under my hand the night before they were born.
Gandalf, Jr. f Adopted by Mike E and family, in Richardson, TX.

A classic black & white cat, she is destined to be large and lovable. (We know her father, you see.) She was the first-born, and the first to start walking around, but the last to open her eyes. That was incredibly frustrating for her -- he was ready to explore the world! And yes, she turned out to be a girl... we thought she was a boy for the longest time.
Lylly f Adopted by Prufrock, in Bryan/College Station, TX.

Lyllith (we call her Lylly) was the surprise -- the last-born, she was the first to open her eyes, the first to leave the closet, the first to eat solid food, the first to use the litter box. A lilac-point siamese (no, we have no idea where she came from), she is highly intelligent, vocal, and adventurous. She is awake more than the rest, and spends a lot of time with her mother, watching and learning from her. It takes her a while to accept being held by someone, but once she decides you can pick her up, she is happy to be picked up.
Midget f Adopted by Curio, in Grapevine, TX.

A ghost tiger, she becomes more exotic by the day. She started out as a tortie with a tiger-striped tummy and light orange splotches from her mother. Her coat is growing paler and she is growing more adventurous. She is Lylly's second-in-command; she was right behind her in leaving the bedroom and eating solid food. She also spends a lot of time with her mom.
Target f Adopted by Curio, in Grapevine, TX.

A dramatically patterned silver and black tabby, she resembles an ocelot. Her fur is incredibly soft, and she has the prettiest face I've ever seen. You can rub her tummy for as long as you want to, and her face will melt your heart.
