3. Me too. We're "fighting" over keeping one.
One day I'll say "please can we keep one?" and she'll say "no;" the next day it's the other way around.

I think the decision will be made easier by the fact that she wants to keep O'Malley (well, so do I), but I want to keep Miranda.

But we already have too many cats.

Sigh.

20. Hey, tell Skittles, the mama.
She's feeding the cute supplements to them. They'll start getting ugly as they're weaned.

Yeah. Right.

15. w00t!
Wow, they're coming along beautifully. Nicely socialized, it appears (isn't the mom somewhat less so?). Great pic! Keep 'em coming!

18. Yes, the mom's half wild. So we've been very lucky with this batch.
:bounce:

The older that gray kitty gets, the more her orange comes out. It'll be hard to let go of her - and all of them.

22. Miranda's the "runt" and she is really fuzzy!
SO cute.

Quick unsolicited tutorial:

open a free account at www.photobucket.com

upload your pics -- it'll give you directions, i think; it's very easy

post the link that photobucket gives you

i'd love to see your foster kittens!

23. Is it just me, or does O'Malley look
a bit like his namesake?

31. LOL it's not just you
But we had to change her name from George to O'Malley when we realized she is a girl. But of course George is who she was named for. He is my favorite character on "Grey's." (Mrs. V. actually named them.)

28. 'Izzy' looks like the baby version of my 'Mother'

She's a gray calico.

Your babies have grown so nicely. They are sooo cute!

30. Mother is beautiful! She looks like Skittles.
Mother may actually be a dilute tortoiseshell. Thanks for posting her picture. A lovely portrait.
