Kitten Foster Fail/Win

[digitaldiscipline]

So, I will not be adopting all three of the Weights & Measures kittens out this weekend; Hectare has insinuated herself into the colony to a degree that I don't want to discard. She attempts to nurse from Kirk and drapes herself over Magellan like a neck pillow (which is no small feat, as he is historically the most hostile towards new arrivals of any of my herd). Furlong and Parsec are rambunctious and occasionally snugglesome, but Hecky/Hex/Heckle will actively seek out and submit to extended pettings, whereas the other two are much less overtly affectionate, at least with so many other feline companions (they may, in their new homes, take after Spawn & Nymph's brother, Grub (now "Kona Sligh Rafe"), and become human-centric when they're in their own future-humans' homes without other cat distractions.



This is a typical scene at the foot of the bed. (Clockwise from left: Magellan, Hectare, Kirk, and Spawn)

Raven, Iris, are y'all *sure* we don't need a tiny black kitten??

Oh my god kittens...

There will probably be another adoption-ready batch around the first of the year.

I never said we didn't! Good thing these are in Florida and we are nearly as far away as you can get and still be in the continental US!

Well, as noted... they're spoken for (or will be staying with me because they are being social and snuggly; the adopter is going to have to push back their pickup day until next sunday/tuesday, rather than yesterday).

next litter is ostensibly spoken for by the woman who manages the restaurant where i eat lunch on the regular.

so, the litter after that - march/april birth, maturity in the memorial day-to-july 4th zone - just putting that out there....

Including H in the total, ten. her siblings didn't get picked up yesterday afternoon as planned, so there are an even dozen in the house at the moment.
