This is a cuddly group who are lounging and watching tv and playing with 6 kids (Yes, big family). They are gaining confidence since weaning and have lovely temperaments. Playful, goofy, cuddly. Videos and more photos coming soon. 

Foster mom descriptions: Ody just melts into you when you pick him up and purrs. Just a sweet, sweet boy. His soft mews are just precious and he is a cuddle bug. 
Percy is calmer and sweet, happy to get attention but not super demanding. Happy to play and get cuddles. 
Helen is a fun and friendly kitten, runs to you for attention and is very curious She will watch  shows with us and is happy to be held. 
Pandora has the tortie personality and can be very vocal about wanting attention and love. SHe's chatty and fun, several of our family members' favorite.

Nine weeks old. They have had their first FVRCP Vaccine and vet exam. All are perfect except Odysseus aka Ody has a small reducible umbilical hernia which is easily treated when he gets neutered . This can be done by his new owners' vet.  The group are gobbling up their food, and loving anything with feathers. We have an electric toy with a feather on a stick that sits on the floor and goes in circles. They love it.    Perseus aka Percy is a cuddler and very sweet at this stage.  Helen is very mellow and playful. Ody is relaxed but very vocal like his mom. In fact the whole group are a little vocal. Lots of eye contact and adventuring in this stage. Quite a good looking bunch.

Odysseus aka Ody and Helen. What are they thinking?

Seven weeks. Totally adorable fluffy balls. Helen and Odysseus (Ody) are available to those on the reservation list. I'll be offering them to folks in order of application dates. This will happen around the time of their first vet wellness check on April 1st at 830am or before. 
The babies are enjoying running the living room and hallway and climbing the cat trees. They are learning social skills. Lots of wrestling and ping pong soccer. Marshmallow aka Helen of Troy has a very cute demeanor.  She is sweet and has a thick coat and very blue eyes. Odysseus aka Ody  is very vocal like his mother. (She is a big talker). Ody is very handsome and is developing into a very large friendly boy.  

Helen (..of Troy) aka Marshmallow. Available to folks on the reservation list.

​

Six weeks and potty trained very well. They are slow to eat the dry food and babyfood but that will probably come soon. Mama Hazelnut has lots of milk and so they are all well fed. Pandora the split face red/black tortie is on a breeder reserve and will stay here with me. The black tabby male with white chest is Perseus and he is a doll. He is active yet sweet. The seal point girl very thoughtful and very beautiful. Her eye color is stunning. Her name is Helen of Troy. 
The lynxpoint male with white mittens is very camera shy this week. I'll try again. He is fat and adventurous. His name is Odysseus but I call him Ody.
We are working on being held this next few weeks and having lots of visitors (neighbors  and friends.).

 Four and a half weeks old. Still nursing only. Not interested in food yet. The kittens are sleeping a lot and run around (waddle) with their tails in the air. At this stage they are kind of bouncy. The tortie girl has piqued a lot of interest from you all.  She is stunning. I'll be describing personalities more later in the month as they develop.  The lymx point is not easy to photograph. He is actually quite handsome. The seal point girl is very chubby. The black tabby male is very adventurous. He loves playing with my shoelaces. Hazel the mom sleeps by pillow. The babies will move to the kitten room tomorrow to potty train as they will start eating soon.

Gorgeous babies. No personalities showing yet. Just nursing and sleeping. They are still in the nest box - week 3.   Tomorrow they will move to a larger box and the following week will move to the kitten room (out of my bedroom).  Names, genders coming soon.

Quiet, happy and sweet. Hazel's babies are lovely. The white/grey ones: One looks like it might develop into a seal point. (darker ears). 
My mom loves holding the kittens and she talks to them.  They love to be petted and stroked but don't like being away from mama for too long.
