There is a long story behind why/how these babies became ours and I'll write all that out for you later, but right now, I'd like you to meet Henry (black kitten) and Bo (orange kitten). We rescued them from the parking lot at a local Bojangles restaurant on Friday night. It was a family effort on the part of Scott, Helen and me. We all have the wounds to prove how hard it was, too! :p There are at least 10 more kittens that we can't get close to, but we are working on having them trapped and hopefully placed in loving homes. We just can't bring anymore into our home. Butter is not happy about it at all, but he'll be ok in time.
The kittens have been checked over by the vet, are negative for Feline Leukemia (thank goodness), had their first shots, worming, flea treatment, and are on antibiotics for Upper Respiratory infections, plus eye ointment for infected eyes. They are adorable and just what I have been wanting. Just didn't know I'd get 2 in the process!!

And here is the first meeting with Butter this afternoon. It was brief as we don't want them together yet, but he was very interested, then he was very MAD!!! But all is well. The kitties will be in isolation for about a week until we know that the infection is cleared up. They are eating well and getting used to the human touch. Both are male and are about 8 weeks old, best guess.

These pictures were taken on my cell phone, but we'll get better ones in the future.

Logan, Butter, Bo and Henry

Woops! I posted the wrong picture. That second one is from Friday night when we brought them home (before the vet and getting cleaned up a bit).
Here's the one I thought I was posting:

Congratulations, Henry and Bo, you may know know it yet, but you have landed yourself in the best of all possible places - a Pet Talk home! :)

Butter, dear one, my condolences. But hey - these two are still young and impressionable - you can teach them all about being a good cat, right?

It took a few moments to put myself back together after turning into mush all over the floor. They are way past adorable!! Do I see mischief on those little faces already?

Oh how nice! As Jen said, it'll be much easier w/2 kittens to break them in and have them learn the ropes. Adorable!

Y'all, I haven't had a kitten in 20 years! My last kitten was Mimi in 1989. She died 3 years ago last month. Later this year, Butter will have been with us 9 years! Of course, he came as a 3-4 year old adult cat. So now I've got 2 to make up for all the time with no kittens! LOL!!

There are at least 9 (or more) where they came from. I saw 2 new ones yesterday that we did not see on Friday. Gosh I wish I could catch them all and find homes. I'll try to consult with Dr. Anderson later today and see what she thinks.

They're so adorable snuggling together. They are probably still scared, poor things, but won't be for long. I'm sure Butter will make them feel more comfortable in time - WON'T YOU, BUTTER???!!!;)

Thank you all for the rescue, and good luck with the rest of them. :)

I must say, I didn't see this one coming. Mimi would be proud and her little angel spirit is probably fluttering about taking this all in. Henry looks like he has some tiger stripes too. I wonder if that will be more pronounced as he gets bigger. I get where the name Bo came from (and I did see that one coming) but what is the Henry connection, assuming there is one?
Henry's eyes look better already. Yes, these two surely hit the find a home LOTTERY.

Logan, congratulations on adding two cute new kittens to your family!:D
Henry & Bo are just adorable, I'm sure that big brother Butter will get used to having them around and like them.
Have they met the dogs and birds yet?
You know you will have to post a lot more photos of them here on Pet Talk.
Kittens grow fast and we need to see lots and lots of photos of them.:)

Henry and Bo are so sweet- I hope my bestest friend Butter will accept them and show his fatherly feelings ;)
I think it is very good to catch them so young because it sounds there is a real feral colony around this restaurant- so they will take forever to get used to human ways if they get caught later.
I hope you can do something for the others as well.

Yep I agree with Rachel on this one, although I did see your e-mail and promise I will respond after work! Both my Trevor and my Andy came to me quite by surprise so I totally understand how this happened. :) These two surely did hit the lottery as Rachel said. There couldn't be a better home for any four-legger than your home!!! :cool: I must say that your little orangie brought back a flood of memories of my Trevor as a kitten. I think you are in for some fun-filled and "nawtee" :p days with these two. ;) Oh just wait until they meet the DAWGS! :D

Henry and Bo are sure growing! And they both look happy and content. Could I ask you to give each of them some lovies from me? Please don't forget to include Butter when giving out the lovies :love: :love: :love: :love: :love:
