OUR LATEST LITTER

"There are two means of refuge from the misery of life--music and cats."
--Albert Schweitzer
These kittens sure bring us joy in the middle of the "misery of life"! Sheba had 4 this time! 2 males and 2 females. They were 7 weeks old yesterday. They've been awfully hard to catch and photograph as they are continually on the move.
Sometimes though you actually have the camera at hand when they stop to rest. This is one of the females and our only Blue Point this time. She is just a doll and a real sweetheart.
This little male Seal Point is also a little lover.
Both he and his sister actually sat around for quite a lengthy photo op (lengthy in kitten time)!
Then others must be caught in a towel and forced to have their picture taken! This little guy has loved people from the time he was 3 weeks old. He'd hear our voices and come wobbling out of the box. (They normally don't come out of their box till they're 4 weeks old, and his brother and sisters didn't.) Then he'd cry till you picked him up! What's not to fall in love with? We nick-named him "Harvey Two Face"!
"Way down deep, we're all motivated by the same urges. Cats have the courage to live by them." --Jim Davis
