Five Kittens: The First Year

It was bitterly cold.
Name: Jacob.
He was taken in.
Conditions demanded a name change: Jennifer.
She was soon to be a single mother.
Soon five kittens arrived.
The quints were given generic names.
The date: February 6, 2007
Proud Mama, "I have it good now."
Climbing the ladder to success.
On top:Spottie,
middle:Grant and Pee Wee
Bottom: Crusty and Blacky
Spotty checks out her shadow.
Taking time to pose for a portrait.
They are getting good.
It's good to be a kitten...just lazing around.
It is May. These girls are about to move out.
They now have REAL names.
Samantha (Sammie) and Penelope (Penny)The move was 4 miles away to my house.
Moving in make a kitten tired!Blacky (Henry) found some good digs in Waterloo.
He settled in well and is said to be highly intellegent.The twins,Crusty (Rusty) and Grant relax at the home
place having moved but a mere 40 yards away to the big house.
Rusty is shy and Grant is brave.Sammie is easy going and ready to duck out the door
while Penny is more cautious.Penny and Sammie settled in have adapted well to
fashion changes, kids, and being carried all over the place.
It is amazing h ow much pets and enrich ones life!
Here's to our kittens!
Happy 1st Birthday Henry, Grant, Rusty, Sammie and Penny!

Take lots of pictures of your pets. If you are lucky...you will get some really good ones. Kim
