Kittens

The kittens have sure grown this past month. They were five weeks old last Friday! Just a few more weeks until we have to let them go. Praying we can find homes for them all. We had one person come by to take a look at the litter the other day and pick one out so that's great! She spent a while here playing with the kittens, watching them, talking to them, so I'm sure that our little guy will be in a great home!
This was just last week when they started venturing out of the laundry room to explore a little. It always seems there's one that stays in the box; they take turns but we often find four out and about and one sleeping away in the box. :)

Our dog, Samson (also called Sam or Sammy) LOVES LOVES LOVES the kittens! He watches them, gives them baths, plays with them, snuggles with them, sits with them.... The kittens will follow him around the house too, which is just adorable! In this photo, Sam had gone out for his bedtime bathroom break and first thing he did when he came in was come in to "check" on the kittens. He climbed in the box and bathed them all before going to lay down. He's just a sweetheart of a dog!

Barbara is definitely a cat person!

Here is our cat, Cinnamon, the "daddy" of the litter. He has been pretty timid and stayed away from the kittens in these past few weeks, but all the sudden this week, he's decided to play a little and help give them baths. The kittens LOVE his tail- an automatic play toy.

I call this kitten Tigger. It has more distinct striping than the other cats and is more orange too. It is the most curious and brave of the litter and will venture out further than the rest of the gang. It also likes to climb and explore- here it is with Rob's slipper, which for some reason she finds fascinating.
