“Lady! Show the innernets that I gots a foot and toeses!”
“Did they like it?” Oh, I suspect they liked it quite a bit, Kudzu.
In case you ever wondered what the roof of Bramble’s mouth looks like.
Whiskers in the sunshine; my favorite!
Hollyhock gets a little one-on-one time with the milk bar.

Back when we were fostering Ivy, when she had the run of the house after we realized she wasn’t pregnant, Archie liked hanging out in this bed in the foster room.
(A lot of people have asked if Charlie or any of the other cats have met the kittens yet. They have not, because Mimosa has made it SUPER clear that she’s not up for that. In a couple of weeks, when she’s gone for her spay surgery, I will absolutely let the cats visit the kittens and see how it goes… and you KNOW there will be lots of pictures!)

Posted on social media (Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/Tumblr) yesterday.
The kittens are 6 weeks old today! (You can see their weights in their weight spreadsheet)
FYI: We are located in HUNTSVILLE, ALABAMA, USA. We are fostering these kittens (and their mother) for Forgotten Felines of Huntsville. Forgotten Felines of Huntsville won’t accept applications for the kittens until they are closer to 3 months old; at that time, you can email them at info(at)ffhsv.org to inquire.
Ever wondered what the kittens’ bellies look like? Here you go! (In a word: delightful.)

Oh, these kittens. I just want to hug ’em and squeeze ’em all day long. Can you blame me?
Line ’em UP! Left to right: Clover, Hollyhock, Kudzu, Bramble and Mondo.

A long video of kittens playing, and me babbling on about the Fruittasan. What more could you ask for?
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeere’s Bramble!
Good night innernets. (The missing kitten is Bramble, who is sleeping atop the cat tree to the left of this hammock)

That “Bramble took a little nap in the cabinet” picture!! Such sweetness!
“How can they be so Cute?” God doesn’t make any ugly kittens !!!!
I swear, every litter you foster is cuter than the last! Hollyhock with her rattie is just precious.
To give an update on the question I asked a few weeks ago about Hildy peeing on the floor: We bought all new litter boxes and that has helped immensely. Thank you, thank you, thank you to the person who suggested that!! We also tried corn cob litter in one of the new boxes and she seems to like it much better than the pine pellets we normally use. One of the spots she liked to pee in was right next to an air vent, so we replaced the vent, and since then, she hasn’t peed there. She’s still peeing on the floor occasionally, but the situation is much, much better than it was. My next step is to get a Feliway diffuser for the area where her favorite litter box lives.
Thanks again to everybody who gave advice a few weeks ago!!
That is wonderful news, Caroline! Thanks for the update!!
