Updated Photos - Part 2

This is my baby, Doyle. At about seven and a half weeks he is almost all grown up and ready to go to a forever home. He is lying in his favorite spot, on my pillow next to me.

This is Dora, one of our visiting friends.

This is our other visitor, who was named Nirvana by the person who turned him in to the shelter. So far, my niece, Paige, is amused by the name and wants to keep it. She is only four and obviously has no idea who Nirvana was; she just thinks it is a fun word to say.



Every body should be big enough and old enough to return to the shelter for adoption by the middle of next week. It is funny to see that even at this young of an age, the kittens have definite distinct personalities. Nirvana seems to be a little bit hyper and tends to want to fight and nip and scratch more than the other two and hates to be picked up. He is, however, very sweet once he uses up his energy and he is learning manners now that he is here with me. Dora is the typical kitten. She is the perfect pet for a kid. She loves to run around and play with toys and follow you wherever you go. She also does not mind being picked up but if you hold her for too long she will wiggle to get down. Doyle is rather timid and tends to get scared by the faster movements and loud toys that little kids have. He seems to like being with the adults in the house. He also would prefer to curl up next to you and sleep rather than run around and play.

All in all, I think they each will make a great pet for the families that will adopt them because the shelter is so good at making sure they go to a family that matches their personalities rather than just to the first person that wants them.
