The little kittens are just over 2 weeks old and their eyes are open. They are wiggly and so cute. One is gray (like mama), one is black and white, and the other is black and white with a brownish foot and spot on his face. They are so adorable.
Persephone (mama) has moved them once again, out of the corner behind the fern to a chair pillow I had placed on the balcony for her to sleep in when she showed up. It is more comfortable for them, I am sure.
I was even allowed to touch them. She did not seem to mind since I am her adopted mama. I then pet her and told her she was a good mama.
Any comments on what to expect about their growing up will be greatly appreciated. I have never had a cat, much less kittens, as I think I told you before; so it is totally new to me.
Since there were only 3 babies, I hope I can find homes for them. I have been told that once Persephone has weaned them, she will not be upset when I find them homes.
I plan on getting her fixed. A friend gave me a vet's name who will do it cheaply since she is a stray.
As far as Sebastian, the big black part Persian, is concerned, I have not seen him since he sneaked a look at the kittens. I understand from neighbors, that he sleeps at the gate to my patio at night to protect them. I really want to adopt him and make an inside kitty again. Riley likes him, and Sebastian will roll on his back when Riley comes to him. I think they would get along well inside.
I guess I will sign off and continue my isolation and rerun watching on TV.
