Day 46/138 Goodbye Valentine

Well if finally happened.  Yesterday Valentine went to his forever home.  Colleen and her sister drove all the way down from St. Albert to pick him up.  Valentine has gone to a wonderful home and we're all very happy for him.  Mom says we were all very brave when he left, but instantly the house seemed empty without him. Valentine was with us for 138 days, our longest foster yet.  He was a big part of our family and we're going to miss him for quite some time.

The kittens are getting bigger and crazier so at least there is lots to keep us occupied.

Look who weighs 1lb!  It's taken a long time, ten and a half weeks, but Violet has finally made it to one pound.

Marigold has more orange that shows up in her coat every day.  Mom can't wait to see what she looks like as she gets bigger.

Mom is developing a theory that all black and white kittens are the bravest, silliest of a litter.  This was the case with Kiefer and Dahlia is proving the theory correct as well.

The ball toy is still a big hit.  Mom posted pictures of Fiona's kittens in this toy a couple of months ago....look how much bigger Kenna and  Kiefer were in it compared to Violet.  And they were only 6 weeks old.

All the kittens love the cat scratching post.  Lily especially likes it in the afternoon when the sun is shining on it.

Rose has always been the messiest eater of the whole litter.  At least only her nose is covering in food now instead of her whole face.
