Are they all siblings?

They must be fun to watch as well as a handful!

They are full grown now, that was taken in 2012. Their mother was a stray and I first met her with her first litter of four kittens. I discovered them hidden in cement blocks by my house, which made nice condos for each kitten. When they started eating, I got them all fixed. Their names are Tiger, Mia, Peppy and Peepers. For photos later.

Their mother is feral but I didn't get to catch her til she got pregnant again with the kitty crew, after that I got her fixed with her complete agreement it seemed. And the story about that is she trusted me after caring for her first four to witness her giving birth to
Fox, Bear, Penny, Angel and Elvis ...who was the first one to eat and discover her love of tuna.

The other two I have is Reverend and Foxy who was in the fall photo contest, thanks to you!

and most of them are practically still kittens themselves.
So I'm sure she was most agreeable, and relieved, at some
level.

I need more kittens.

How adorable, Crewleader. How do you leave them long enough to visit DU? I would just sit and watch them all day and night.

Their names fit their looks. I can tell you put some thought into it.

So glad you shared.

Hi Omaha Steve

For sure, she got in that cat carrier no problem.
Best of both worlds she has now, loves her freedom outside and peeks in to see all her babies in one big play room,happy and safe.

Their play room has a vaulted ceiling for their climb to the loft for those cozy naps to get away from the others for some me time.

The mother prefers to stay outside but does have a special room attached to my house for shelter and for all other strays where I put blankets in cardboard boxes out when it gets too cold.

Here she is...our Momma Mia

The one kitten leaning on her paw clearly gets his/her looks from Mommy.

Keep posting pics. I need my fix.

I like the way Elvis has his paws together in the top picture. And I see how Fox got his name... Siamese?

Too cute.

Fox is a Ragdoll, and I have another Ragdoll from Mommas first litter....Mia.

Elvis is a real sweetie, and so affectionate, she gets a kick on helping make the bed.

She runs to each bed corner has the sheet gets pulled tight to make the bed with her sliding and flipping in such excitement.

She makes me smile all the time making the bed, my little helper.

As a long-time Siamese fan, I noticed Fox's color points right away. Did any keep those blue eyes?

And sorry I called Elvis a "he..." I hate saying "it" when it comes to pets.

Still, all too cute.

Her father is my Batman who stays with Momma, they both prefer outside. His eyes are green while Momma is blue.

Fox and Mia have that beautiful ice blue eyes being both Ragdoll.
