Milk Man

The kittens have finally emerged from under the house, more or less. There are 5 of them that survived, and 4 of them are paired off, one white one with one dark grey one. Then there's the runt of the litter, left alone because the other half of his "pair" didn't make it past the second day. So he's the odd one out. He's also the most adventurous of the bunch, and the post people friendly (the other 4 still spend most of their time under the porch, or under the house, especially if people are around.)

Monica has dubbed this little guy (at least we THINK he's a little "guy") Milk Man, or Milky for short, because we gave him a saucer of milk, and he was ALL up in it while he gulped it down! He was literally standing in the milk while he drank it, silly little thing. Anyway, both of us have a thing for "runts" or the "underdog", so we've both become attached to this little guy. He's so tiny, but he's a furry little ball of fun. Here are some pictures I took of him this evening, along with some shots of his mom, and a couple of his cowardly siblings. Enjoy. :-)
