Mystery solved

Barth Brooks is the dark tabby.  Willie Nelson is grey.  The difference between Brad Paisley and Keith Urban is much more subtle.  I can tell them apart but it will never  be obvious in a picture.  Loretta Lynn is a goofball.  One night she tried to nurse all the kittens while lying on my lap.  There's just not enough room but what a sweet gesture.  She seems to prefer drinking water by dunking her paw and then licking the paw.  I've seen her drink the more conventional way but usually it's the paw method.
Kittens seem to be drinking without paws but I did see Brad/Keith dunking his paw the other day so they may end up paw dunkers too.  Time will tell.

Loretta Lynn

Mickey, Minnie, Daisy and Donald have all found homes! Marsha Brady is still waiting for her family to come adopt her.
Meanwhile back at the kitten room a new bunch has arrived. Mama cat is Loretta Lynn. She has four boys, Willie Nelson, Garth Brooks, Keith Urban and Brad Paisley. So far Loretta is a little shy so I haven't been able to see much of them. They were friendly enough when they arrived so I'm hoping they'll be out and about soon. Loretta is a pretty torti. Brad and Keith are a pretty buff color, Willie (or is it Garth?) is a dark tabby and Garth (or Willie?) is a soft pearly grey.
I'm hoping to hear them sing soon.

Marsha, Marsha, Marsha







She was one of the Brady bunch who came back to me for TLC when she had a medical problem.

She has had to be isolated from all the fun and has complained bitterly about it. When I'm with her she wants to be held and to play and I can't get a better picture since she's too close. Even with a bad picture though you can see that she's growing up to be a lovely girl. She's all better now and will leave soon and have a nice, social cat life again.

Minnie







Minnie is the most playful but she loves cuddling too. She has thumbs too. Just the cutest things. She has such a pretty face even before you notice the darling feet. What a doll.

Mickey







Mickey has that look............sweet and trusting.

He's a good little fellow. He and Minnie are built alike but have very different coloring.





Donald







Donald is the guy peeking from behind the curtain. He and Daisy are a pair. He doesn't mind spending time with Mickey either. Snuggly and playful, what a sweetheart.

Daisy







This is darling Daisy. She's almost all white except her pretty face and lovely tail. She's cuddly and adorable and has the cutest feet. Call her polydactyl, mitten kitten, or Hemingway cat, any way you look at it she has thumbs and they are the sweetest feet you'll ever see on a kitten.
