The kittens turned 11 weeks old yesterday! Here’s what they look like now:
You can see their weight chart at the bottom of their page here, but in summary everyone but Pablo is now over 3 pounds (Carmelita just barely). Pablo’s at 2 pounds 11 ounces, which is where Carmelita was last week, so he may hit 3 pounds before their spay/neuter surgeries a week from today. We’ll see!

Wanna see something amazing?
Diego in mid-March.
And almost exactly one month later:
Diego in mid-April.
And this is what Isabella’s left side (I considered that her “bad side”, but her right side wasn’t much better) looked like when we first got her.
And what it looks like now:
She’s still got thin spots on the backs of her legs, but she’s not overgrooming or itchy, so I think it’s just a matter of time. She is INCREDIBLY thin because the kittens are still nursing occasionally. I’d feel sorry for her, but I’ve personally witnessed her waking up the kittens and calling them to nurse, and have also witnessed her not allowing them to nurse if she doesn’t want them to, so she’s really got no one but herself to blame here.
Isabella and her mini-me, Carmelita.
“HI Mama!”
“Hey kid.”
Pablo and Diego and the feather teaser.
Carmelita has a sleepy.
Pablo and the intensely loony eyes.
Javier has a YOWZA.
Just as a reminder and if you hadn’t heard, we have adoptions pending on all the kittens.
Pablo and Diego TOGETHER.
Carmelita without another sibling, but there’ll be siblings in her new home to play with.
And Javier and Alejandro TOGETHER.
