Meet the new family

Litter #11 arrived on Sunday the 10th. We’ve had a little over a week to get to know them and I can firmly say this is one of the most well-behaved, adoptable bunch yet. Except for a bit of calici that’s infected all of them and kept them quarrentined in the back bedroom, we’ve been having lots of fun.

Shackelton, pictured immediately below, is by far the lovliest of the bunch. He is such a lover (he’s purring in my lap as I type), and has wonderfully soft long hair.

Edmund is wild. He bounces and attacks just about everything that moves. Cradle him on his back for a belly rub though and he’s as docile as the rest.

One of their favorite games is “king of the scratching post.” It has a few variations, but always ends with four kittens sleeping on top of each other on the scratching post.

Then of course there’s Amelia. She’s the least people-friendly of the bunch - a little like Vespa for those of you that know our cats. But how can you not just love that face?!

Beryl was a little harder to photograph for some reason. When you pet her, she immediately flops over to have her belly rubbed. Strange behavior for a cat, but it’s cute.
