Finn was the final kitten from the park litter to get caught, always lingering close to mom and slow to follow the other kittens to explore the treats we left for them. Since getting caught, Finn has warmed up quickly and is the largest of the litter, maybe even part Maine Coon. Even though they have an independent streak, after a bit of adjustment, Finn is quick to settle down with you and purr.

Smudge was the third kitten to get caught from the park litter, but it was their second time getting trapped. They were the one that managed to slip away when Millie was caught. Despite that, they are warming up to people very quickly and really seem to enjoy sitting on laps once you’re settled down. Smudge is very adventuresome and eager to explore, but always comes right back when the food comes out.

Millie is the second kitten caught from the litter found at a nearby park. Millie is smaller than her littermates (except Rusty who was severely malnourished), long-haired, and all black. Millie can be a little surly when you first pick them up but they warm up to cuddles very quickly and within minutes are nestled in purring on your lap.

Rusty came to us from a neighbor who found them on a walk and knew that we rescued kittens. It turned out that they were the first of a litter of kittens found at a nearby park. They were skin and bones and had a cold when they arrived but otherwise in good health. Some hearty food and a soft place to sleep does wonders. They are extremely people-focused and demand to be held whenever possible, preferring to settle on your shoulder or chest for a good nap. I hope you don’t want to nap at the same time because their loud purrs may keep you awake!
