Sorrentino - the tuxedo boy,
and Sassafras (Sassy, for short) - the sassiest little gray girl ever.

Kyndra's kittens - growing like weeds
The littles are growing up. Reinhardt (orange tabby) has actually hit the 2lb mark! But he still seems so tiny!
That's Raquel in front and Murrel in the back (can't see his little white spots in this photo).
Cotton's Tale - May 7, 2010
More big milestones for Cotton...
Since he has come out of the bathroom, he has made friends with my girl-kitties. He recognizes that he is low man on the totem pole and defers to them for favorite sleeping spots, food, etc. Originally, he seems scared of them - it was hilarious to see a 6lb 3-legged cat chasing this big 14lb boy! Now it's all in fun, they chase each other around the house and he's taken to jumping out from behind a chair when one of them walks by, just to try to engage them. He has turned into quite a gentleman cat around the ladies.
Second big mark... last night he decided to jump up on my bed to see what he could find. He's been tempted before, but would never come all the way up. He's finally decided that it seems to be OK. Unfortunately for me, he decided this at 3am. But hey, a milestone to be celebrated at any hour.
Finally, this morning HE LET ME PICK HIM UP! (cue the happy-dance). No squirming, striking, or bite-threatening. Not so comfortable that he started purring, but still a HUGE step for this cat.
I think he's going to be a nice, happy cat after all. I knew he had it in him somewhere, if he'd just let it out.
