Wow! A farm you're an yourself? That's amazing. Tough work. I couldn't imagine the amount of self abuse you went through. Did you have many animals? Did you kind of "live off the land". Not sure if that is the right expression.

It was a very old farm and not a functional one, other than for vegetable and flower gardening.
I was alone and had a workshop where I worked on pianos and refinshed things for people.

Oh I see. Still sounds cool. But it sounded like you didn't like it too much. I could understand why. Sometimes being alone all the time gets a little much.
Hheath how are those cute little kittens doing?

They're cute and adorable and seem just as healthy as could be.
Edith is torn between wanting the same type of attention she got before, and taking care of her babies. I make sure to stop and pet her and scratch her ears every time I walk past the box, which is every time I leave the room.
While the kittens are relying on her for all their food, she's going to be getting two cans of wet food a day, with access to all the dry food she feels like eating. Her food also got moved to right next to the box, so she can keep an eye on her babies. She still has to go across the house to use the litter box, but she seems to enjoy a little time away from all the babies climbing all over her.

Very cute kittens. Nice mommy. Box is too small. The camouflage is cool.

They are so cute Heath. I think the top one, the one with the most orange, should be named Alty. Just a hint. ;)
I'd take one in a heart beat, if only the darn family wasn't allergic. I need a separate home for my pets. :(
Keep the pictures coming as they get bigger and congrats to you and momma Edith. :)

That one with the orange (the tortie) is so totally the one I staked out.
But alas, I have been informed that we are NOT driving to OH for a kitten, no matter HOW cute it is.
I think they should be named Jan, Marsha, Cindy, Bobby, Greg and Peter, personally.

hmmm... I might just name them after you guys. That would be cool. Then, of course, there was emop's suggestion that I name edith mop (before she told me her name is edith). Right now, they're too young to tell me their names.
I will continue to take pictures just as soon as I buy more batteries. My camera goes through cheap batteries at a rate that almost makes it not worth the saved money.

sorry, I am NOT naming them after the brady bunch. Besides, they're still too young to sex.

I don't drive, so I deliver to anywhere I can ride my bike to. I would ride my bike to canada, but there's a little bit of water in the way. It's called LAKE ERIE ^_^

Aaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwww!! Am I a cyber auntie now??
If I lived closer, I'd drive right over! We'd be overwhelmed with kittens about now had we not gotten our two feral girls spayed.

As awesome as that would be, I don't think it's possible.
I DO, however, want to get a basket for my bike that has a lid so I can take kitties on bike rides. Once the kittens are nursing less, edith starts harness and leash training. Any of the kittens I keep will get the same training. That way I can take them out on walks.

That's an excellent idea! I bet they will love the oppurtunity to get outside!

Yep, that's where I got the idea. I saw a lady with a wicker basket that had a wire lid that clipped shut. She had a little doggie in it.

And HOW would I pronouce that when yelling at it for being bad?
I'll wait until their personalities start showing before naming them. Although, I keep want to call one of the black and white ones, spot.
