That's amazing! What is the disposition of the babies? I wish I was
closer, my girls could use some company.


Right now, they are just cuddly little fur balls, only two weeks old.
Personalities soon emerge though. My wife is a PKT (Professional Kitten
Tamer). its her job to tame all kittens so we can give them away. You
wouldn't believe the number of cats that people said were wild and
untouchable that she walked right up to. She met her match with "Wild
Thing". That cat was hissing and biting from day one. It will take a piece
of smoked mackerel out of your hand but then immediately runs away. OTOH,
we have one named Socks that wants to be petted more than any dog.

BTW, all the cat names have meaning, "Wild Thing" won't be tamed. Cally
Dee is the fourth calico (Cally, Cally Bee, Cally Cee). Guess why we have
an Orange Ena. I don't have time to write all the variations of Tiger.

What would you name my two? They are sisters, black, green eyes and a
small patch of white on their chests. When we got them at the pound, their
plastic collars had a number and "A" and "B" and somebody wrote "Ava" and
"Bessa". after tossing away a few ideas like "Scratch" and "Sniff", we just
kept "Ava" and "Bessa". They actually respond to their names!

Sounds like they are smart enough to keep as house pets.

Good job

"Lenin called them "useful idiots," those people living in
liberal democracies who by giving moral and material support
to a totalitarian ideology in effect were braiding the rope that
would hang them. Why people who enjoyed freedom and prosperity worked
passionately to destroy both is a fascinating question, one still with us
today. Now the useful idiots can be found in the chorus of appeasement,
reflexive anti-Americanism, and sentimental idealism trying to inhibit
the necessary responses to another freedom-hating ideology, radical Islam"
