These guys are a lot of work but so much fun! Mama is Liddy (tortoise shell), aunt is Lily (calico), very sleek elegant cats like Egyptian cats. I call them the Bronte sisters -- they like long walks thru the hills, are very close to each other, but a little weird! Grandma (yes, Nana woulda been good) is Lila. Those three showed up under my house last August. Whew. (Lily produced 4 M-kitties last spring and all found homes thru my wonderful vet's office.)
I would be glad to post a couple pictures but have not been following how people are doing it. Could someone email me on or off line how and where? I am not too savvy about this!

That is quite a project Barbara! They sound adorable. What's Mom's and
Aunt's names? I assume the grandmother is Nana. Hope you will post
photos when you get time. Bless you for giving them a chance.

You all give me hope on my current project -- raising 4 kittens from a feral
mother! (who I recently trapped and is at the vet being spayed as we speak).
They are 3 months old now and 3 have been inside with me for about 5 weeks,
doing just great. The 3rd one I caught a little later and it took a little
while for him to soften up but he is just fine as a pet now. The 4th one I
just was able to trap a few days ago and I still have him in a cage. But he
eats off a spoon held by my hand and is calmer, so I am hopeful. Their
names are Nico (apricot and white, gorgeous), Nessa (black and white), Nate
(orange and white), and Noah in the cage (gray). I will be keeping Nico and
Nessa inside with my older two cats, and Nate and Noah will live under my
house with several other outdoor cats including their mother, aunt, and
grandmother. Whew!

Good names, Jim. I once had a cat named Scardy Cat; male black and white who was born wild but eventually became quite tame. He turned out to be a true gentleman...still miss him and he's been gone for at least 20 years. Just takes some time and patience to turn scardy cats into lap cats:-) Marge Talt, zone 7 Maryland mtalt@hort.net Shadyside Garden Designs ----------From: james singer <islandjim1@verizon.net> We finally settled on names for the two cats. The homely littlecalicowill be "Squinty Cat" because she squints a lot, especially in theAMwhen I first turn on the lights. The large all-black cat thatspendsmost of her time under the bed will be "Scaredy Cat" for obvious reasons. Scaredy is becoming more sociable, but it's a slowprocess.She's really a beautiful cat, long coal-black fur and bright green eyes. We have some hope that Squinty, who is very sweet and loving,will eventually civilize Scaredy. But that may be wishful thinking.--------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off this list, send email to majordomo@hort.net with the message text UNSUBSCRIBE GARDENCHAT--------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off this list, send email to majordomo@hort.net with the message text UNSUBSCRIBE GARDENCHAT --------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off this list, send email to majordomo@hort.net with the message text UNSUBSCRIBE GARDENCHAT
