The Man and I love cats, sometimes I think he does more than I do. This is our first foster litter, and being HUGE comic book fans, we named most of the kittens Superhero names! So I am going to introduce them one by one, starting with Momma...
Diana... AKA Wonder Woman
Diana is a sweet Momma. She is so tiny, and a fiercely protective mother. She has chased Blue, our Dog; Dante, our neutered male cat, and Dylan away from her area of the hallway. She is mostly white with tabby blotches, only weighing around 7 lbs. I am feeding her canned food in the morning and at night, she needs to keep up her strength for the babies.
Little Barry has had it hard for a 6 day old. His real Mommy and all his siblings were killed by a dog. He got really lucky, because when Diana showed up at the shelter, she allowed him to nurse, and now he has a new Mommy!
So far he is about 3-4 days older than all the rest of the kittens, and his size shows it. His eyes and ears are also open. He is an orange tabby with what looks to be a medium hair coat. He is a fuzzy little man, who loves to cuddle with his adopted siblings.
His best friend is this next little man...
Bruce Wayne aka Batman
This little black short haired boy has a massive voice on him. He is an explorer and loves to cuddle his big adopted brother, Barry. Like the rest of his litter his eyes and ears are still shut. We guesstimate him to be about 4-5 days old.
Hal Jordon aka Green Lantern
Jordon is a short haired swirled Tabby boy. He is very adventurous but not very vocal. He is the biggest of the litter, but doesn't show it.
Lucy
The first of our two girls is little Lucy. She is Mommy's twin, being all white with tabby blotches. She is a sweet little explorer that is in love with the Man. She doesn't have a superhero name, because the Man took one look at her and said, " She looks like a Lucy." I couldn't argue.
Madison aka Wonder-Twin Number 1
Madison is a full tabby girl. She is actually larger than her twin brother. The wonder twins were a little known superhero brother and sister, whose names I forget. Maddy loves to roam around, and she has a massive voice coming out of her little body.
Mason aka Wonder Twin Number 2
Mason is a tad lighter and smaller than his loud sister. He is calm and collected so far and is a big eater. He is the runt of the litter, and is usually alone. Don't worry, I am keeping an eye on him, and I have some Kitten Milk Replacement ready in case he isn't getting enough. Diana is an amazing Mommy, so I doubt I will have to break it out.
Barry says HI!, and stay tuned for more updates!
