Meet the Axanar litter!

Ashley and Noreaster’s kittens are doing great and getting cuter by the minute. We’ve named this litter after characters in the independent Star Trek film Axanar because it is completely awesome and you should check it out. Plus, I really wanted to name a kitten Kharn the Undying. Klingon kitten! All of these kittens have been …

Sylvia is (not) available!

Update: Sylvia has been reserved and her new family will pick her up next week. So, one more week of guarding our mugs from a coffee-loving kitten! 🙂 Sylvia is still available!  Things fell through with the folks who had reserved her, but that means that if you can’t wait for a kitten you’re in …

Rhymes with Pippi

Pippi’s kittens (also known as the “mobile potatoes”) all have temporary names that rhyme with Pippi.  Hey, it’s a better theme than “Rhymes with Rigel.” Nigel? Di-gel? It hurts my brain.

Ashley gave birth to seven kittens in the wee hours of the morning today.

Eight nipples, seven kittens, no waiting

Pippi’s kittens continue their progression from tiny fur blobs to enormous fur blobs. At this stage they resemble fuzzy potatoes and we start kicking around names like “Russet,” “Yukon Gold,” and “Idaho.” Then we remember our personal ban on naming kittens after food and wait for some other inspiration. Five of these kittens are reserved.

Six or Seven

Ashley is due to give birth to six kittens this week! It could be seven (it depends on if you are counting skulls or spines), but we are sure about seeing at least six on the X-ray: Update: Everyone who has looked at this since we posted it says “seven.” Of these, five are reserved!

Meanwhile, back at the NPR litter…

The NPR litter is growing fast and enjoying the additional space in the main part of the house. After meals they like to burn off that excess energy by running back and forth as fast as they can. Then they nap… until they wake up and start playing again. And eat some more. It’s a …
