Otto's Foster Mates

July 7, 2010

Michelle says: Otto came to us alone for fostering, but fortunately he found a ready-made family of siblings in another foster litter we had at the same time: Kermit, Not Kermit, New Nermie, Brownie, Princess, and Wanderer. New Nermie is a bad name, but he looked just like our cat Nermie. Not Kermit as a name is pretty embarrassing too -- my husband did that! Wanderer was my favorite kitten of the group -- such a goofy, funny kitten. Princess was the only girl in the group… and very much a princess, but a tomboy too. She would bop her brothers on the head if they tried to take over HER territory. Not Kermit was adopted and his name is now Echo. He and Wanderer were adopted together, and Brownie and Kermit were adopted together.

Don't know wich one I like the best, very hard to choose,Princess is Super Cute and I did'nt choose her because I know most people will choose her, so I'm giving my vote to "Not Kermit", I'm also happy that Otto has such nice furry friends,,, =^..^=

Princess really is the right name for her - she is stunning. They are all absolutely adorable.

Wow- with a face like this one I am assuming Princess was adopted. What about New Nermie? A wonderful family- so adorable and they look like so much fun! Thanks for taking such good care of these cuties- and the photos are wonderful!

Michelle is such a superstar! God bless her. I enjoy her photos and stories every time. It was simply too hard to pick a favorite out of this sweet bunch. Each photo was my 'favorite.' Like a box of See's Candy, the last one is always the best one until I eat another! Thank you Michelle!

What a beautiful bunch of catties! One is cuter than the next. Princess certainly has the looks to go with her name. I love them all. Thanks Michelle for the photos. They are all so adorable.
