Milk Sucking Parasites

I am amazed that Snickers is still letting the kittens nurse.  It looks so bizarre to have five largish kittens nursing on her!  They are 10 weeks old now and ready to be weaned.

The kids decided to keep Sulu (the calico licking her chops), Billy Bones (the orange tabby) & Spotty Spock (or DLB- Dirty Little Bastard, so named by Will). 

Kittens to find homes for include:

Scathach, aka. Scatty

and Long John Silver.

Both are beautiful kittens and are very playful.  They also seem to stick together oddly enough!  Silver is going to be a big Tom cat while I think Scathach is going to be on the smaller side like her mother.
DJ gets first pick if she wants either; then the greater universe has the option to choose.  :)

Today I am making an appointment to have Snickers "fixed"....she is yowling around the house searching for a way to escape and get herself into another muddle.

      Ah Cro, that would be the life...escargot and voles en Francais! I'd love to send him to you, but I suspect there would be some quarantine issues to deal with....

    Good taste mR. Magnon, he is by far the pick of the litter, strong, independent and gentle, with a nice long tail.

    Now I'm confused. My second choice would be a female, which "Scatty" fulfills and I love her markings, but the Dark Side's comments about LJS have me rethinking my pick. :( Perhaps I will have to get the husband's input. I'll get back to you. LJS looks very sweet in this pix.

      Haha, that is the last thing I need. I just got the feline population down to a managable level. One more addition is all I can contemplate for now. :)

    I like Long John Silver but a. I am allergic to cats, b. you live too far away and c. Andrew says no more animals. LOL
    I don't know how you can stand it! Having to decide which ones to give up. They are all beautiful and their mama is a sweet pea.
