kitten update

Thanks for the birthday and gotcha wishes on Monday. Good news - mom took her laptop and her brother fixed it. It will get limited use, but at least mom will be able to go back to using the camera and uploading that way.

Speaking of cameras, the web cam seems to work sometimes and not others. Since it usually comes back on if mom resets the wifi at the house, we suspect it is that rather than anything else. However, if it goes offline while mom is at work, it won't be reset until she gets home. Sorry about that.... we just don't have thumbs to flip the switch!!

Mom was in Tennessee for birthdays over the past weekend (she and her niece share a birthday). The kid made mom some artwork for the foster room:
Mom also just realized looking at that picture that they are crooked. Oops.... But aren't they adorable??
(also - you can see the web cam in this picture too)

Mom swears the kittens doubled in size while she was gone. The momma cat is taking great care of them and they are active. Hard to believe they are a week old today. As for names, mom is going with a flower theme. The momma cat is now Amarylis. We think there are 3 boys and 1 girl kittens (the more orange but lighter color). The boys will be Dandelion, Muscari and Trillium, the girl is Orchid. (Mom thought for a while it was two of each and the other girl was going to be Hyacinth....which is also known as Muscari....happy accident).

  3. It's cool that your mom shares a birthday with her niece. Our mom shares her birthday with her sister (and they are NOT twins)!

    Cute names for the new little kittens!!
