Litter 3, post 3: Kitten 4!

We have a newcomer to the litter! We have our three V-kittens, Vanity, Valencia, and Vienna, but now we have a fourth girl: Chili! She's somewhat skittish, and nearly adoptable weight, so the hope is that we can get her a bit more socialized before she gets fixed. The kittens have been teaching her how to play gently, and she's been teaching them better grooming habits (which is nice, because they often had their paws and faces covered in food). She's warmed up to us fairly quickly, though she has to sort of re-warm up to us sometimes, where she'll hide behind the toilet, then come out so she can play with the other kittens, then remembers that we're okay and lets us snuggle her again. She's about 10 oz bigger than the V-kittens, so she's got some weight on them (and a lot more fluff!), but she's learned how to play with them gently, so they seem to have a lot of fun. Sometimes they'll snuggle when they sleep, though sometimes not. They like each other though, which is nice, and cute to watch!

Chili is a fluffy grey kitten, and super soft. She's a bit difficult to photograph, as she likes to dart all over - she's very playful, which makes her fit right in with the others! I uploaded the pictures through a different method, so they should be better quality from now on!

Click for bigger versions, as usual! Just a side note, since the pics are higher quality the "messes" will be more visible - don't worry, we really do clean the kitten's room. We wipe it down literally every day, but our little girls really seem to love tracking various things all over the floor every day. If we wipe it down while they eat their breakfast, by the time we bring them dinner it looks like a disaster all over again. We do our best!

This is a picture that was sent to me of Chili in her last home!

They each love this little green mouse!

Chili instantly warmed up to James and wanted to be on his shoulders.

Kitten pile!

Vanity likes to be really noisy when she wrestles with the other kittens.

About to pounce!!

Cutie Vienna.

Vanity being cute.

Looking like she's going to murder someone.

More grooming kitten!

Chili taught the other kittens how to play through the door - don't worry, we kept them from moving the door while they did this, so not kittens were harmed!!

Attacking Chili's paw!

More playing. Vienna left, Vanity right, Chili's paw under the door.
