12-7-06 The Chip and Dale thread.

[jenluckenbach]

The boys are now about 7 to 7 1/2 weeks old. (the vet said 6 to 7 weeks old, but I am certain they are at least 7).

I have 10 new photos of them. So let's begin.....

Let's start with Chip








This next picture shows the kink in his tail. When he first came here I noticed a bend in his tail. I had no idea how it got there, but I assumed it was some sort of injury. I have known other cats to have a kink or two in their tails. Well the vet thinks that it was simply dislocated, but since it has been like this for almost 6 weeks it can no longer be manuvered back into joint. I could kick myself for not bringing him in to the vet right away. But I never imagined there might have been a simple "fix" for him. So he will always have the distinctive bend in his tail.



More in the next post.........

Here's Dale......







And two of them playing.





This Sunday they will go to their first adoption event. (And Charlie is playing Santa Paws for photos where the rescue gets the proceeds. I am his helper, Mrs. Clause) Jus think, in as little as a week's time I could be babyless.

So enjoy them while we can.

Chip sure has Big Ears and Big Paws!
A sure sign that hes going to be , like Willy One Big Tabby.
And Dale is so sweet!
They are I have the feeling going to stay!
Any Takers on that bet?

I just love those tiny tabby faces and those widdle white toes!

They are growing so fast Jen! And so darned cute! I'll see you on Sunday, although Dittle, my foster, may not be there for Adoption Day. She has a watery eye and her nose looks funky (I'm hoping it's not ringworm... ick!). Are you sure you want to give them up?! They're sooooo sweet!!!

They are SOSOSO cute Jen! I love how in almost ALL of Dales pictures, he has that "stand upish fur" like he is a big boy or something! lol
And Chip is adorable as well. Looks like a bundle of sweetness!

I also love their names.

Are you attached to them after the bottle feeding or what? That is always the hardest on me. I hate the adopting them out part, esp. after getting up with them every few hours for the first few weeks. I feel like I put in all this work, and I want them for MEMEME!

They are adoreable but there is something about Dales face that I just LOVE! What is it about his face? It is just so very, very cute to me for some reason.

[Reachoutrescue]

Dale's eyes are amazing.....And Chip's tale just makes him even the more cuter! I am sure they will be a big hit at the adoption event. Great job with them...they are adorable.

*squeal* I get to meet these little guys on Sunday? Woohoo -- bring out the camera to take pictures of me smooching these two babies!

Aaawww- I am such a sucker for tabbys. And now they are in that adorable age where they change from good widdle kitties to nawtee widdle kitties- irresistible

[catlover4ever]

Jen they are so adorable. Boy when they get bigger are they going to be so, so handsome.

This IS an adoption event, right???? Will Chip and Dale go home with you???? They are tabbys after all!

These two widdle ones are so adorable! You have done a great job with them!

[KitCat]

AWWW! Kittens are so special!

[cassiesmom]

They're pretty adorable... tabby stripes and white mittens... cute, cuter, cutest!

[krazyaboutkatz]

They're both so adorable. I think that the kink in Chip's tail gives him character. I'm sure that you'll have no problems finding these cutie pies new homes. It sure would be great if they can be adopted togther.
