I should also add, this is how Wren likes to sit when I first come into the kittens space. She's like a little orphan begging for more soup.

Little Wren. She is very cute, with her little white toebeans and ginger splodges.
She also still fits in the palm of my hand if she tries very hard.

So the kittens are tucked into the space between my soap shelves and my work table. Which means I have to stand in the kitten space to pack orders.
Anyway, they're learning to climb legs.

Also Ember says WE ARE NOT FRIENDS to Erica.
She was a little bappy and very unhappy about Going To The Vet.
But! She never has to have kittens again and YOU ALL helped that happen. Thank you for helping fund her spay!

The kitten area was strangely clean this morning (litterbox training is working!) and so I was able to sit in there before breakfast and snuggle babies.
Highly recommend a litter of foster kittens for mental health.

Ladybug (and now Sammy) are so close to goal, and to their human being able to get them all the help they need!
I know we're all pretty strapped right now, but @yamyamyam.bsky.social is a dear friend, and Ladybug is one of those incredibly sweet, loving, pet rock-type cats who shouldn't be in pain just because her human's financial situation has changed: www.gofundme.com/f/send-ladyb...

Ahsoka and Ginny are very interested in the kitten smell on my hands, but they're worried about upsetting Robin by actually interacting with the kittens.
All the cats are actually doing really well and being very polite about sharing space.

I did actually have to work all day, so couldn't spend the day snuggling kittens, but it was really nice to not have to drive.
And look at tiny Goose!

Because! Everyone is excited about wet food.

I rang the community vet today to book in Robin and kittens and omfg FEBRUARY.
They also won't do Robin's spay until she's 4 weeks past weaning which feels wrong.
Gonna ring around but gaaaah.

Biiiiiiiig stretch from Duck.
All of the kittens are getting fatter, and have more energy. Yay for improving milk supplies!
Duck has been the smallest kitten but her belly has been full every time I checked in the last 48 hours.
