Foster babies - Pictures!!

Here are the promised pictures of my two foster kittens (who I have
provisionally named "Dora" and "Mama's Boy"). My friend Stef came over
last weekend and snapped these while I played with them.

Enjoy!

What wonderful fuzzy kittens! I cannot tell these two apart. Did
your friend get to play with them too?

They are so adorable -- real "Angel Babies". They look healthy and
happy. Best wishes. MLB

I know what you mean - I sometimes confuse them, too. Then I have to
look carefully for identifying traits - he has darker stripes in back,
whereas her body fur is lighter and also fluffier. But her face is
darker than his. Not by much, but if I see them together I can tell
them apart. Also, there's something about their facial expressions
that's different - she just has a bolder look. She's more curious and
confident. He's curious, too, but often what he wants is cuddling and
reassurance.

Yes, we both played with them, after Stef's photographer duties were
finished.

the same thing for the same reason, they call it intelligence.

Which kitten is the one with the front toegloves? I think those
mittens will stand out even clearer as they grow older. That's the
only way I can reliably tell them apart in the photos.

They look like they're being very well socialized. Maybe they can
eventually meet the grown-up cats as well.

I usually let them out of the cage when I'm in my bedroom (otherwise
they scream like you wouldn't believe - they are part Siamese, after
all). An then when I try to leave the bedroom, at least one of them
gets out. I've discovered that it's actually harder to control where
kittens go than adult cats. With adults, there's more surface area to
push against when trying to restrain them. Kittens just slip through
my feet before I even know they're there.

So today, one of them got out as I was leaving the bedroom. I think
it was Dora. She ran straight up to Licky and sniffed his nose curiously.
He just stood there, either transfixed or terrified or just baffled.
I went into the kitchen to do something for a second, and when I came
back I found Dora snarfing down Licky's food. No, no, no! You can't
have that, kitty! It'll make you sick. So I tossed her back into the
bedroom with chunks of grownup cat food dangling from her mouth. Meanwhile,
Licky was standing a ways from the bedroom door, crouching in alarm.
Poor boy. But I think he's going to adjust - there was no hissing this
time.

It's so funny how adult cats, who weigh about 12 times as much as the
kittens, are afraid of them, but the kittens are fearless.

Dora sounds uber adaptable and adoptable and adorable. It would be an
unexpected but very interesting development if one of the cats take
the kittens under their wing.

OMG they are so totally cute! Their markings are lovely, the perfect mix
of Siamese and tabby. I hope they can be adopted together.

How typical and charming! Really cute and pretty kittens; perfect
blend of Siamese and tabby, improving on both.

Indeed.
