Slugger Bowl XLVI

The girls continue to grow and thrive – today Molina gained 4 ounces! Wow!

Their favorite thing is to run loose in the back room while stalking and wrestling each other. To think that we worried that Molina wouldn’t be able to keep up with Cruz...not a problem.

After they get their ya-yas out, they like to climb into our laps and snuggle.

Cruz’s purr motor revs up almost as loud as Molina’s these days.

One of Molina’s favorite spots is to curl up on one of our outstretched legs. However, she’s starting to have trouble balancing there because she’s getting so big!

We haven’t seen any applications for adoption yet, but there’s not as much competition with other kittens now, since it’s not really the season, so we’re hoping their perfect peeps come along soon. It’s time to get these girls into their forever home!

Meanwhile, Poppy continues her recovery upstairs. She’s still a little snuffly, but it won’t be long until she’s 100%. This photo makes her look like she’s wearing eye-liner, but her eyes don’t really look like that in person. She loves to be petted and brushed and clearly enjoys our company.

She’s left the bunkhouse a couple of times to explore the rest of the upstairs. She must put out a very submissive, nonthreatening vibe, because staff cat Reg (who normally is hissy and aggressive toward newbies), didn’t really bother her. He watched her intently, but let her go around and check things out.

We’re not sure how much longer we’ll have Poppy around, but she’s been a lovely guest and she’ll make a nice addition to someone’s home.
