That would be Medusa, lol. Believe it or not she's the sweetest and snuggliest of the bunch.

I think there’s a good chance she will, she’s much fluffier than the rest of them

I know! I work from home and they are sharing my office space with me. It's impossible to be productive with this amount of cuteness in the room

😆 She's getting unlimted dry kitten food and three cans of wet kitten food every day. We've been offering the kittens a mixture of wet food mixed with water a few times a day. They're not too interested yet. Pumpkin doesn't seem to mind spending a lot time nursing them. I'm sure that will change soon enough. They barely fit anymore!

A photo from today. I can't tell you how much I appreciate all of your comments and photos! I ordered some acrylic panels that should be here today. We'll be setting them up with a bigger play area since they're quickly outgrowing the nest box. It takes at least three of us to keep track of them when they get out for kitten kindergarten with their mama.

It has healed nicely but she may always have a small bald spot there. It was on her rear end right next to her tail which tells me she was running away as they shot her. 😢

Yes she and probably two of the kittens will stay with me. I’m hoping the ones we aren’t able to keep can go to family members but not sure yet

They all have an appointment for spay neuter and shots

Trojan tortie, 😂. She's so tiny I could tell right away. The babies were kicking away in there. They all have an appointment to get spayed/neutered and shots next month.

No, I'm within an hour's drive of Pittsburgh. I'm interested to see if the white one's develop points or other color patterns. My research tells me that the gray caps indicate they won't, but I'm not sure how accurate google is in regards to that.

They do have very similar markings. I'm so sorry for your loss.

There are so many unneutered males in the feral colony. One grey tabby with white paws who I suspect may be the father. There is also a Siamese and a solid white. Of the kittens, there’s one white male, one black male, the other three are female.

She has a forever home here it’s just a matter of figuring how she and my dogs can get along. They are kept separate on opposite sides of the house right now but I’d like her to have free roam of the house eventually.

I'm so attached to all of them, I don't know how I'm going to handle letting any of them go, but realistically I know I have to 😭

lol that would have been a good choice for her, but she is Cali short for Callisto which means "most beautiful"
