Real quick snapshots before I left for work this morning.
Some pics from this evening...Ella had eaten and drank several times. We offered canned food and she dove in. I petted her some and she purred.
I went ahead and reached for a kitten and despite a few tiny cries of protest, each of the kids got to hold a kitten while I checked them over.
Thus far, everyone is healthy and seems to be energetic with full bellies.
We have one calico, two tortoiseshells (the smoky black dried out to be a tortie,) and two gray tabbies. Knowing that the calico and torties should be females, I compared “parts.” The two Gray tabbies are boys. My son was in tears until I told him that we did in fact have a boy.
DH’s niece has requested a male and a friend has requested a female so I think everyone is spoken for, allowing one for each kid.
These are pics without the kiddos in them.
L to R: tortie, two gray tabbies, calico, and tortie.
In the next few days I’ll try to figure out how to tell the torties and tabbies apart.
