SKOOTER, LUCI & MALCOMB


We picked up three of Starsky's and Hana's siblings tonight, which brings our grand total to five!  There was supposed to be a sixth kitten, but it was the runt of the litter and needed to have one-on-one time with mommy.  One of the five kittens that we currently have will be returning to buddy up with the runt and will be staying at another foster home.

We now have two tuxedo cats (Starsky and Skooter), two calicos (Hana and Luci) and Malcomb.  I'm not sure what type of cat Malcomb is.  I need to google that.

If you are wondering why their names are spelt non-conventionally, it's because we need to give the kitties a name that is not already taken in the VOKRA* database.  With over 1,000 kittens going to various foster homes, you can imagine the confusion if everybody named their kitty "Abby".


Luci weighs in at 1.1 pounds

Malcomb at 1.4 pounds


and Skooter at 1.2 pounds

Luci is the very sweet, slightly scared little girl.  Skooter is quite active and scoots around all over the place (hence his given name).  Malcomb is the VERY vocal alpha kitty and lets the rest of the clowder know it.

I learnt what 'clowder' meant on an episode of 'The Big Bang Theory' and can now finally use it in a sentence.  I love Sheldon.  I'm waiting for the day when I foster a kitty version of Sheldon.
