Birthday Girls!

 

We're a year old today!

On 29 October, we brought home two 9-week-old babies from our local rescue under their foster-to-adopt policy. Their litter had been brought in extremely sick and under weight, and they were so tiny and fragile. We could carry both of them in one hand. We spent that first night at the emergency vet.

They're thriving and are growing into delightfully chonky girls (almost 12 lbs!). Butterfly is finding her voice, and using it to be very bossy indeed. She fusses if we're not playing with the correct toy. Marigold is turning into quite the snuggler, especially when she's sleepy. She is also still incredibly soft, like a bunny. I think (?) they have their adults coats, but I'm not certain. They never really had a big shedding of their kitten coats, and I know some cats don't get their full adult coats until they're a couple of years old, so we'll see. They are sweet and affectionate and purr constantly.

Happy Birthday, girls!
