Madeline and the MMMMMMMMMM's

Well I've truly been stumped for names.

The Vet visit last Wednesday was a very quick introduction where they werent quite sure of their age. Some had their eyes fully open others were slowly getting there and we'd been told they were only a week old. With all kittens being over 200 Grams we figured maybe they were 2 weeks old...

Either way they're still at the quite boring stage where my main job is keeping food up to Madeline and just recording the tiny tot's weights once a day. Madeline is doing her job very well and we have some quite porky little babies that are gaining at least 10 if not 15 or 20 grams per day.
Madeline ~ Of course I look after my babies.
Two of said porkies are very close to hitting the 300 Gram mark and the other two are not far behind.
Nice Picture of the different colour Tabbies.
Since the ginger boy was last to open his eyes and is the lightest in weight I'm pointing at him to be the runt.

Anywho back to names. I looked up the story books Madeline hoping to use names of characters off that. Well half of them are hard to pronounce for me so any potential adopter would be struggling as well. Last night I had a bright idea to find cat names starting with M.

Therefore we now have names. I dont doubt someone at the shelter will disagree that some names are horrible, I did try to go for the least horrible names. Truthfully how many shelter cats keep their name when they're adopted? Therefore if they suck, at least they're temporary.

I'll go by the fattest.

Please welcome Marlowe the black Tortoiseshell girl who takes after mother.
Very porky little girl
Kind of hand/size comparison still tiny
Mishka the adorable Brown Torbie girl with a ginger kiss on her head.
She's going to be a gorgeous baby
Very whiney at the present though
