These 5 kittens were rescued from under my Moms house. The mother was probably a stray and nowhere to be found. One kitten, Boots was barely alive when he was pulled out. All are doing surprisingly well considering their not so good start in life.

All kittens had their first vet check up and with the exception of ear mites, they are surprisingly healthy. They go back in about a week for their first set of shots and will soon be ready to go to their new homes. At about 12 weeks they will all have appointments back at the vet to be fixed so they won't contribute to unwanted cat population.

August 2...All but two kittens have gone to their new homes. We still have Boots and Ahmree here and they are running all over the house now. Quite apparent they have made themselves at home. My grandson calls them Tabootsu and Ahmagotcha. Boots aka Tabootsu is turning white. I have asked the vet and it isn't something to be concerned about. He said it is just an undercoat, since he isn't a typical black and white cat. We will have to wait and see what color he ends up being. So far Ahmree aka Ahmagotcha is going to stay here with us. Boots is still pending a home but have people that want him. Gonna wait and see who is the best fit for him since he was the one that nearly died.

August 15, 2008....We still have 2 kittens left. Ahmagotcha and Tabootsu are still here. Last night my grandaughter told us that Tom, my ex-husband (we still get along) would take Bootsu. My husband spun around in the chair and said NO. Now it isn't that he has anything against my ex, in fact they get along great, it's that he has completely fallen in love with Boots and absolutely refuses to let me give him away. So we are now the proud parents of two more cats. This brings us to a household of 4, 1 dog, 1 cat and 2 kittens who will join the cat category when they get bigger. Hmmmmm, I find it interesting that he has taken this stand considering he never wanted a cat in the first place.

Tabootsu and Ahmagotcha now have their own gallery since they are permanent residents, so if you would like to see them grow and mature (if that is possible) then check it out. https://pbase.com/uneek156/mykittens
