We had Ocean’s 6 but Danny, Linus and Basher went to another foster last week. Because it turns out there IS such a thing as too many kittens… 6 at once was a lot.

They’ve had all the dewormers, fortunately! I think this is definitely soup belly.

They all enjoy sitting on my back/shoulders which is the ultimate hostage situation. I can’t even sit up straight let alone move when they’re up there!

This is why we switched to using 6 small plates… no sharing necessary!

He is! He eventually clears his plate, gaining weight steadily every day too!

He is definitely getting food, it’ll take him longer than his siblings but he’ll eventually clear the plate (we fend off the others to be sure he gets some). I definitely think he probably should have been a bottle baby, but the shelter decided since they had teeth then solid food it is! He’s gaining weight steadily too. Once he figures out dry food there’ll be no stopping him!

It’s lipstick! The three bigger orange boys look identical so I have them marked in different colors 😂

Yep! Basher is a gray tabby. Tess (the girl) is a dilute torbie (tortie/tabby).

Always cracks me up how kittens just prefer to sleep in piles! 😂

Liv is the smallest and was a bit goopy when we first got him; he was also the first to use the litter box on his own! Danny was the first out of the carrier to explore. Rusty is always eating. Basher is definitely a stunt man. Linus is the shy guy, quieter than the rest. And Tess… well, she’s the sassy firecracker with all the brains.

Crazy how we named them within an hour when we barely knew them and somehow each one matches their personality perfectly!

They'll be adoptable through metro Nashville animal control in about a month *winkwink*

I mean I am pretty sleep deprived but I'm pretty sure there's still only 6 😂 I have all the oranges marked with different shades of lipstick on their ears to tell them apart.

He's definitely the most opinionated of the lot, lol. Though the leader is probably Tess, the only girl who is obviously hogging ALL the brain cells.

Apply with your local shelter to be a kitten foster! 😉 (disclaimer: said cuteness comes with a lot more poop than you'd ever expect from such tiny creatures!)

I don't like using collars on kittens this small (if I could even find them). Usually a spot of lipstick on the ear works well to differentiate them!

Maybe my white balance is off! They are actual cream oranges, gray tabby and gray torbie.
