My kids and their kittens


June 3, Sarah, Charity, and Rebecca got 3 kittens from Phil and Judy. These kittens are so cute and soft. Charity's kitten Teddy turned into Tiger. He loves to pounce and climb and explore. He has more Tigerish than Teddy Bear qualities. He has orange and white stripes. Rebecca's Sweetpea never scratches and does not like to rough house like her brothers. She will sit nicely in your lap. Sweetpea is striped lighter brown and black and is very photogenic. Sarah's cat Stripes is very similar to Sweetpea in color but just a little darker and loves to pounce and play attack and climb trees. Both darker striped kittens have an M on their foreheads so Michael thinks they should be his kittens. June 21 Phil and Judy had another batch of kittens ready for adoption. Michael got his kitten right away. Michael's kitten has 4 white paws and is named Boots. Even though Boots is a couple weeks younger, he tries to pounce and climb like the bigger kittens. He has needed to be rescued from the window well already. Phil gave us one kitten that Phil's kids could not part with and so one kitten was returned. James got his kitten today. Houdini came in a box from Phil and Judy's house with Charity(after Phil's kids were asleep...shh) Houdini jumped out of the box several times on the journey to our place until Charity put some heavy tools on the lid. Houdini was shy this morning and would hang on to your clothes with his claws.

Nice first blog.
I also like the picture, but I don't think I'm very photogenic in it.

i agree with Sarah. It looks like she has black gunk in her teeth. Ew. it also looks like tiger didn't want to be there. o well, all together it looks good. Get Loren and Jolene a cat, have them jump in the picture and you would have yourselves your christmas card already.

That's a good idea red-headed stranger! Maybe once Paul and Maria's kittens get old enough you could ask for 2 kittens for Loren and Jolene. By then though youd have to buy nametags for the kittens to keep them organized. Ask anytime and I'm sure Mitchell would willingly give up a kitten or 2. They'll probably be black though. That Mitchell has gotten really attached to the 2 calicos and the 1 golden kitten.
