They’ve been named! Meet…
Beulah, the runt. (I really really really liked someone’s suggestion of “Tallulah”, but it’s been used. Hmph.)
Ezra and Elijah (I haven’t decided which is which – I really need to mark one of them so I can tell them apart!)
Thanks for your suggestions, you had some good ones! Of course, the ones I liked the most had been used in the past by the shelter, and the only real naming rule is that you can’t use a name that’s been used before, so it makes it challenging sometimes!
Last evening I went upstairs to take the kittens their evening serving of canned kitten food, and they ate and then played for a while, and then got sleepy. Before I knew it, I had three kittens sleeping in my arms and another two snuggled up in my lap. Bessie, the little gray kitten, cracked me up because she’d fall asleep and then wake up and look up at me and meow plaintively, the drop right off to sleep again.
I got a short movie of one of the buff tabbies, Ezra or Elijah (like I said, I haven’t decided which is which) protecting his food. You’ll want to crank up your sound to hear his mighty, fearsome growl.

Beulah, directly before she chomped on my foot.
Beulah (the wee gray one on the left), Caleb (the black one) and Bessie (on the right) snuggle up.
Phinneas says to Jasper, “Come closer and let me chomp on your tail would you, old chap?”
“Now that I’m up here, how’m I supposed to get down?”
Phinneas watches the fight from a safe distance.
Ezra and Elijah in a fight to the death!
I think they were chasing shadows.
