We have some intruders in the house, and they are making all kinds of noise in Mom and Dad's bathroom! One of our friendly neighborhood cats -- Ziggy -- ended up having a litter of kittens. Mom and Dad thought she was a tiny boy, turns out they were wrong. There were four kittens who showed up on our back deck a few weeks after they were born. Then they went away for a few days and two returned. Turns out our neighbor adopted the other two. But then Ziggy went MIA for a few days and left the twin boy kittens on our front porch. Mom and Dad were very worried about Ziggy. She was looking real bloated, almost like she hadn't weaned them enough. She showed up again for a day or two, but mostly kept her distance from the boys. So Mom and Dad decided they needed to get the kittens to the vet for a checkup and bring them in. They are in isolation in the big bathroom right now as Mom and Dad de-flea them (no one wants that in the house!) and then we'll get to meet them. Mom and Dad would love to find them a home, but also know that we may have just become a four cat house.
Look how cute they are! Dad snapped this picture after they returned without their sisters and were just hanging out around the front porch.
Meet Castor and Pollux! They are twins, just like the Gemini twins. The only big different is Pollux has pink toe beans (P) and Castor has chocolate toe beans (C). Other than that, Pollux's left back sock is pulled up a little higher than Castor's. They are really hard to tell apart!
This is Castor. He has a little dot on his toe that looks like a flea but isn't (we've tried to get it several times...).
There's a camera in the bathroom so we can check on them all the time. They like the camera. They really like to knock the camera over so we can't see them.
