    Cats doesn't think that is a good enough reason to add another mouth to feed to the household.

    I think Alty-cat is adorable, but then so are the others. :)

    It's cool that you and I are a kitten. After all, it's not Alty, it's Alty-Cat. :)

    You know... it's probably a good thing that our respective mates said 'no'. If both said 'yes', the international custody agreement would be very interesting. :D

    Zoe's eyes are open now. She has the most soulful eyes I've ever seen on a cat. I have to keep her. I just look into her eyes, and she's mine. I can't give her away. I just can't.

    Now, I just need to figure out who else I'm keeping. As soon as I think I want to keep one of them, I realize I want to keep one of the other ones, which makes me realize I want to keep someone else. I just can't decide. I love them all.

    Keep them all Heath, that's what I would do.

    I know, I know, not logical, but it would be the easiest solution. :)

    Easy for a couple months, maybe. Then the cost of feeding them and keeping the litter in the litter box would catch up with me.

    Once I can get her to hold still long enough looking at the camera, I'll post a picture. Then everyone will fall in love with her.

    Nope not one bit, I thought that from the beginning! I said I always wanted a tortie kitty to be named after me :D nahh they are all beautiful. I really wish I could have one. That reminds me... how's that ramp coming along?

    Well, the concussion, and now the cold, has waylaid it. That, and my bike got a flat.

    Sigh. I'll accept that. For now.

    Alty-cat (she wouldn't hold still. This is the least-blurry pic I got)

    Most of them are starting to walk, instead of belly crawl. In a few days, I'm not going to be able to keep them in the nest anymore. It's already almost impossible to get them to hold still for pictures.

    I really like mop!

    Are they going to be long haired like the mum?

    :)

    Edith is basically a shorthair. Her fur's too short to be considered a longhair, but just long enough that shorthair isn't completely accurate.

    I think spot and zoe will be longhairs. Several sites I've found say that longhairs take up to twice as long to open their eyes, and both of them were several days behind their siblings.

    Mop is a sweetheart. He rarely ever cries, without reason. He's just quiet, and seems thoughtful and inquisitive.

    Alty-cat is opinionated. If she doesn't like something, she'll tell you. She doesn't like to be by herself, and always tries to be curled up with as many of her siblings as possible.

    Unky is the runt. He gets walked on and stepped on and sat on, and he just takes it. He almost never cries.

    Zoe is soulful. She'll talk when she needs to, but mostly she just seems to enjoy looking. She's always looking up. She'll tumble with her siblings, but she'll also just sit and watch everything around her. (I'm keeping zoe)

    Aura is loud. If she has something to say, everyone is going to hear it, and she often has something to say. She seems to be trying to declare herself queen of the litter.

    Spot is trouble. He's already climbed out of the next a few times. He's always going somewhere or picking on someone, even his mommy. He likes to play and explore.

    I can't help it if it's true.
