I found quite a bit of video from the foster kittens back in mid-summer. Here's a snippet, which took me way longer to prepare than anticipated, but now that I remember how to work with video on a computer maybe I can do some more in the future...

All three cats got adopted at the event last weekend! The kittens went together within the first five minutes of the event, which was awesome for both reasons, and Mishka was adopted right at the end of the event (officially, fifteen minutes after the event was over, but we were all willing to wait for that.) Once the kittens were gone, she curled up in a heap and slept for about three hours straight. These two shots were taken while her new human was filling out the paperwork with the shelter employees.

(yes, I know those wasn't their names in the last post. I've given up on editing it to denote further changes.)

Meet the new foster cats. Here is Sabine (left) and her mother, Tipsy (right). Tipsy came pre-named (though by the time you read this, it will probably have been changed.) They were surrendered at the Seattle Animal Shelter by their prior humans due to "moving out of state".

Update: Replace all instances of 'Tipsy' in the current article with 'Majka' (pronounced 'Majka'.)

If you took Tipsy Majka, added a white spot on her nose, performed a sex change, and added about another Tipsy Majka's worth of mass, she would be Jasper. Sabine will probably look similar when grown up, although her colors might be lighter.

This is Sabine's tuxedo-cat brother, Sebastian. (Another new name. The two of them were recorded at the shelter as 'kitten-F' and 'kitten-M'.)

Sabine again, this time without mother-cat-interference. These are essentially the only shots we got of the kittens that aren't a blur of fur. We may need to invest in strobes and high-speed film.

Their mission for the next few weeks is to plump up a bit, get snip-snipped, and then act cute and fuzzy to potential new humans. I think we'll be successful.
