Available!

Handsome Jack has been cleared for adoption! His wound is healing beautifully and the vets think he's ready to find his new home.

The kids have also been cleared, so everyone here is ready! Poor Sofya is still sick, but she's the least sick kitty in the sick room and is doing great, so I know she'll be back up soon.

So much Handsome, so much helpful

Silly kitty

I keep telling him, "There is no Mommy outside. There is no head-scratchins outside. There is no second dinner outside. Why you wanna go outside?"

Dinner

With Honey munching away downstairs.

At least someone appreciates the box.

The Box!

Proud mama

All the girls eating. Mambo doesn't need no stinkin' canned food (but he usually does participate).

He hides good

Morning

Mama stayed home sick, so all the kids stayed, too.

More Handsome

Progress

Too much Handsome

Success!

We were worried that he was barely eating, and figured he's probably a social eater. He was fine eating alone when he spent a lot of time alone, but he started refusing to eat when closed in his room.

Finally put his food on his dresser, and he went to town. He ate like he hadn't eaten in days, which was pretty much true.

He had a vet visit on Wednesday, and we're no longer cleaning his face. They said bring him back in two weeks for a check-up, but I might take him in next week, depending on how it looks. They popped out a few more stitches, and he's really healing up nicely.

Babies

I can tell them apart in person, but it's hard for me to tell in photos. They all have different personalities.

I'm pretty sure this is little Samba, front of the pack. Adventurous and playful.

Mambo. Only boy in the bunch. Only one eating dry food. Took a while to come around, but he's a sweetheart. And would patiently sit with Minuet when she refused to leave the room.

Little Minuet. Biggest lap kitten, very people centered, especially since mama Sofya left. Homebody.

Mambo

I don't have any photos that I'm sure are Tango. She looks exactly like Minuet, but their personalities are different. She is usually out exploring with Samba and getting into trouble.

Kits

It took a couple days, but everyone is finally eating on their own.

And they are gaining weight so fast! Two of them are already two pounds, the other two are 1 pound 12 ounces, so they might be adoptable next week!

He's settling in.

When Madeline's being mean.

 He spent his first night out with Madeline, and they did fine. A little bit rambunctious and a little too much playing, but he's much happier.
