Lalo was NOT looking to see if he could make the leap to my desk so that he could steal all my pens, and he resents the accusation.
Mama Kim has a snooze.
Mike (upside down), Gus and Francesca enjoy some sunshine.
The sun really showcases Gus’s crazy big ears.
I swear Mike always has a little smile on his face.
Gus and Saul check out the bathtub situation.
Oh, that Gus.
Mike’s all “Haaave you met Mr. Ratty?”
Nacho (front) and Francesca snuggle up for a nap.

Posted on social media (Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/Tumblr) yesterday.
FRANCESCA (DOB July 27, 2022) and her 4 siblings (Gus, Lalo, Saul and Nacho) were born to mama Kim Wexler, who was an owner turn-in to our local animal control. The family came to us to foster on August 1st at 4 days old. A few days later, Mike joined the family, bringing the kitten population up to an even 6. They are now 3 months old, and available for adoption.
Francesca is a wild girl who will leap into the air after any toys you toss for her. She’s particularly fond of ping pong balls (she’ll catch them before they have a chance to bounce), but will FLY up after any toy you want to toss. She’s got a quick purr, loves to be petted, and will always curl up against you for a quick nap. She gets along great with other cats (if you’re looking for a pair of kittens, she’s especially good buddies with her sister Nacho) and is pretty interested in any other cats that she spots.
Francesca is going for her spay surgery on November 2nd, and will be able to go home a few days later. If she sounds like your kinda kittyfriend, email Forgotten Felines of Huntsville at info (at) ffhsv.org to inquire.
MIKE (DOB July 31, 2022) was found in a hay bale, where he was left by his mother, screaming his little head off. He needed a family, and joined Kim Wexler and her 5 kittens (Francesca, Gus, Lalo, Saul and Nacho) when he was a couple of days old. Kim and her kittens accepted him immediately, and as far as he (and they) are concerned, they’ve always been together. Now that he’s 3 months old, Mike is available for adoption.
Mike is a sweet guy who walks around with his tail straight up in the air. He can be a little nervous when first meeting new people, but he gets over it quickly and turns into a total lapkitten. He loves to fall asleep in the nearest lap, and when he’s not cuddling and napping, his dearest wish is to steal all your pens and play with them. He’s a super playful guy who will jump on the nearest kitten for tussle, will play with any toy he sees (he loves to carry around spring toys and rattly mice), and isn’t the slightest bit wary of other cats, just wants to be friends. If you’re looking for a pair of kittens, he gets along great with all of his siblings.
Mike has been neutered and had most of his vaccinations, just needs his rabies shot before he can go home. If Mike sounds like your kinda kittyfriend, email Forgotten Felines of Huntsville at info (at) ffhsv.org to inquire.

I’m tossing toys for kittens, and those girls (pink-collared Francesca and black and white tuxie Nacho) have got the MOVES.
Saul is a boy with crazy eyes, a skittish nature, and a need for speed. It takes him a while to warm up to new people and new situations, but once he does, he’s a crazy little sweetheart. He has the sweetest purr and once he trusts you, he will roll around on his back and purr for you while you pet him. He’s a playful guy who adores a track toy, but his very favorite form of play is to chase ping pong balls across the room or down the hallway. He loves to carry soft toys around in his mouth – or feathers – and growl at the other kittens to stay away (the other kittens are never impressed, and do not stay away at all.) He would do well with other cats – if you’re looking for a pair, he’s great friends with all his siblings.

Nacho is a super-playful girl who loves to FLY up and grab toys out of mid-air before running off with them. All you have to do to get her attention is wave a toy around, and she sits at attention waiting for you to toss the toy. She’s never met a toy she didn’t like, but is partial to ping pong balls, soft toys she can carry around, and lightweight toys she can send flying across the room with one smack. She loves
trackball toys too, but if she can’t find a toy, then a sibling is just as much fun to play with – she’ll leap on the nearest kitten and start a fight. She can be a skittish girl and new people and new situations make her nervous at first, but once she realizes they’ll throw toys for her or play with her, she relaxes and drops her guard. She gets along great with other cats, and if you’re looking for a pair of kittens, she’s especially good friends with Francesca.
Nacho is going for her spay surgery on November 2nd, and will be able to go home a few days later. If she sounds like your kinda kittyfriend, email Forgotten Felines of Huntsville at info (at) ffhsv.org to inquire.
Good night innernets. (Lalo and Saul)
