Be prepared to be bowled over by cuteness (Saffie's kittens, 4 wks old)
Edited on Sat Jun-12-10 03:32 PM by cherish44




They are getting very curious and are very quick! I keep them blocked off in a corner of my front porch but let them out to explore a couple time a day and they love it! It won't be long before they'll be able to scale the cardboard boxes I use as barriers lol...

They're growing like weeds and getting cuter by the second :)

Saffie is an excellent momma. Very protective, keeps them very clean and obviously is feeding them well!

1. LOL! I just came here to see if you posted new pics
I'm really enjoying seeing these little boo boos grow up. They are so cute. There's not anything more entertaining than kittens at this age.

:loveya:

2. Oh my god,
cute kittehs! They are adorable. Are you keeping all four of them?
I LOVE orange kitties - we used to have one, a feral rescue, but he died about a year ago.
We still feed his brother, who's part of a feral colony at a shopping center.

Thanks for the 'AWWW' moment!

4. No unfortunately I can't keep them
Momma is a feral and as soon as they're weaned I'm going to have her fixed and let her rejoin her colony (if she's not too spoiled by all the good inside living she's enjoyed here for the past 4 weeks) The babies are up for adoption. I have a home for one, (the tan colored female, she's adorable!) I'm sure the three orange boys will find good homes too (I have friends who can take them as farm cats if I can't find them inside homes, but I'm sure I'll get them adopted, they are SO beautiful with those orange, swirly markings).

5. How is Saffron adjusting to indoor living?
Has she become tame? Possibly adoptable?
I was just thinking someone could adopt the mom and one of her kittens.

6. Saffie likes me...but she's very shy around other people
She's become pretty affectionate since she's had her kittens but I don't know if that's just the mommy hormones at work or not. Before she had her kittens she wouldn't even let me touch her. She'd sit close and purr but if I tried to pet her she'd run) Now she's my shadow, follows me around just begging for attention! I'll start letting her go back outside in a couple of weeks. (We live on a side street with very little traffic, there's never been a cat hit by a car since I've lived here so I think it's pretty safe). If she wants to be an inside cat, I'll probably cave in and keep her :))
