Jade's kittens - 7 weeks old....

How did that happen??  How did time pass that fast??  It seems like just yesterday that Jade and Mica showed up and then took the orphaned kittens into their little family. Now they are growing by leaps and bounds. Don't get us wrong - they will be here for a while longer..... but they have certainly come a very long way:


Everyone has tested negative for FeLV and FIV. They are vaccinated and will be spayed/neutered and microchipped when they are big enough. They are sweet and outgoing and so playful. They are discovering toys and the joy of jumping on each other (and Jade of course).

Mica with the photobomb. Ash and Coral in the back, Amber stalking the mom.

Jade doing her guardian routine while Pearl voices her complaint 
(yes, along with her coloring, her voice is siamese as well)

Amber: "how YOU doin?"

Ash, Coral and Mica check out Uncle Tim passing through

So let's see....some weights:
  Ash and Mica both weigh 1 pound 10 3/4 ounces. The race is on!!
  Amber weighs 1 pound 5 1/8 ounces.
  Coral is up to 11 1/8 ounces. (snicker)
  Pearl weighs 14 7/8 ounces (she lost a little....keeping a close eye on her).

Between last week and being tested this week, a couple of different vets have seen Coral. While the first reaction is "she is how old?" and "wow she is tiny", the general consensus is that she is healthy, just little. Our rescue vet did suggest maybe a full blood panel before she is spayed. Whenever that may be.....
