Saul and Francesca snuggle up and sleep.
Francesca wonders if she dares take that first step (she decided not to.)
A full milk bar (and a sleeping Lalo.)
Saul at the milk bar, up close.
And Kim says “Not so fast, little one. Get back to the milk bar.”
Another weigh-in for Mike. (He’s gaining, slowly but surely.)
Lalo LOVES to roll around with his feets in the air.
The original 5 kittens (ie, everyone but Mike) are 2 weeks old today! (Mike is 10 days old.) They’re getting brighter-eyed, more vocal and more curious every day. It won’t be SO very long ’til they’re interested in escaping the crate!

An old shot of Dewey, so y’all don’t forget what a good-looking boy he is! (For the newer readers: Dewey strongly dislikes having his picture taken, and so I’m respecting his wishes.)

Posted on social media (Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/Tumblr) yesterday.
Mike and Lalo at the milk bar; everyone else is sleeping in the back of the crate. (Lalo is not the biggest kitten – that’s Gus – but I love seeing the size difference between Mike and any of the other kittens.)
Former fosters Amber (front; formerly Ambercup, our foster in 2015) and Phoenix (back; our foster in 2017) say hellooooo, innernets! (Fun fact: Phoenix is 5 years old today! Happy birthday, sweet girl! ❤️)

Look at the bright eyes on Saul! The kittens are 2 weeks old tomorrow (except for Mike of course, who just turned 1 week old on Sunday) and over the next week they’ll figure out how to focus those eyes (though I feel like Saul is doing a pretty good job of it), and will start approaching and looking out the door at the front of the crate.

Kittens waking up after a long nap… and who’s who!
Lalo through Mama’s whiskers. ❤️
Good night innernets. (Lalo and Nacho)

For a split second I thought that Amber and Phoenix was Alice and Archie and wondered if Hell had frozen over in Alabama.
I cannot even imagine how quickly I would pass out from the shock if that happened!
Look at Mike’s wide open eyes!
Wasn’t Amber the one with the broken front leg?
Love seeing former fosters so pleased with their lives
Wasn’t that Pattypan?
BetaLoop’s right, that was Pattypan!
Francesca’s like “Nope, could be quicksand!”
