Meet the kids!

My fosters have names now. They will turn two weeks old tomorrow.

Max is a little more red than Milo, and he has bigger and darker stripes on his tail. And he loves to complain!

I have a Milo. He's also orange. He's on my lap right now but at 15 lbs. he takes up a bit more room than your little one.

Love those kitties!

I consulted a list of German-origin names, since I had named the mama Greta. Looked for the cuter ones, i.e. Alfie instead of Alfred, Max instead of Maximillian! Not sure what Milo is short for, if anything.

Of course these are their foster names and will no doubt get new ones when adopted.

(though the little whiner at the end is esp. cute!) Thanks for the pictures.
