They discovered the ceiling fan again. The little smile on Ciabatta’s face is killing me.
Ciabatta’s talking to the ceiling fan, and Babka’s telling me how cool it is.

The Hopalong Gang (Lollygag here) really like this whale bed.
That upside-down bed was on the cabinet over the whale bed, and Meander (who likes hanging out up there) pushed it off. Didn’t faze the kittens at all.
Meander likes to hang out on that cabinet – the kittens can’t get to her, and she can keep a close eye on them. The kittens,from left: Skitter, Lollygag, Skip, Mosey, Bolt and Dillydally.

Mosey’s all “Yep. I got up here all by myself! Not sure how I’m going to get down, but that’s a problem for later.”
Former fosters! Sweet sisters Amber (back; formerly Ambercup, 2015) and Stardust (2017).
Debra says “Hard to tell where Amber ends and Stardust begins!”, and that’s certainly true – at first glance I thought it was just one cat!
(Thanks, Debra!)

Yeah, I know, it’s not the greatest, brightest, clearest video ever. But you get some purring and to hear Ciabatta’s sweet baby voice a few times, so it’s worth it!
Good night innernets. (Ciabatta, left, and Babka.)

The Hopalongs seem to be growing up so quickly—-are they advancing faster than most litters? And Meander is such a super mom…to keep six kittens so well fed and clean has to be quite a feat…and she seems so laid back about it all! Do you think she’s done this before?
I think it’s very likely she’s done it before – we estimate her to be about 18 months old, so likely there’s been at least one litter previous to this one. (They are a strikingly gorgeous bunch, but I’m glad for her sake that they’ll be her last!)
Oh, and I think they’re advancing at the usual rate – their tails suddenly seem incredibly long to me, though!
Their Points are coming in nicely. I was looking at one of the pics up close on Flicker and am pretty sure other than the 2 obvious (Seal Point Mosey and Yellow Cat Lollygag) you have 2 Lynx points and 2 Flame points. am I close? I know the one is a Lynx point for sure since it has stripes on its legs and a more pronounced “M” on the forehead.
I think the girls are lynx (Dillydally is the orange girl), and the boys are flame ( except Mosey’s teddy bear butt!) point! Such a cool litter. I wish we had space for Mosey & Lollygag!
You might be close! 🙂 Honestly, I am not all that well informed when it comes to different types of meezers/color points, so I’m going to have to rely on Brittany to make the final determination of what I’ve got. She’s dealt with them much more than I have!
Khal’s little face! I love heem.
