Vagrant Kittens Saved On Northwood Terrace,
Status: ADORABLE!!!


There's really not much that needs to be said when you've got three totally new kittens plodding around your feet, and napping on your chest. The best move would probably be to just grab a camera and start writing down all the great things they could be saying in posters, like "Not another Monday!" or "Bad hair day!" or "Just hangin' around.". Y'know?

Robbie found these little rascals under a porch on Northwood Terrace with the help of a local 10 year old. Apparently none of the neighbours know who's they are, so Steph offered to take them in - it was the best decision she ever made in her life! We're proud to report that Francesca has enthusiastically offered to take one of the little guys (the black one) in as a new member of Team Willow! Hopefully Elliot won't mind a company.

I wanted to name the white/grey one Paperclip. Nobody else seems to like that name.

i like the name!

i think michael and i made the right decision with regard to 'the black one' (as yet unnamed). i think elliot and she will get on just fine.

You can name the black one Paperclip, if you like. Otherwise, I'll just keep it in my memory bank for a future cat.

I can't stop looking at the adorable kittens. I am kind of astonished that Francesca didn't beeline for the brown one. He's the cuteness superstar in these photos. There's nothing like a mid-meow photo.

oh yes, the brown tabby is the star, for real. but she's a little *too* cute, you know? she's the most robust in health and temperment, but i really have a soft spot for little "paperclip" (a.k.a. thom yorke). he's very frail. but he pees the most, which i'm proud of.

i'll arrange another kitten viewing party before they all go. it's a much more powerful effect with three.

uzi was being totally sweet to them last night. she was caressing their heads, keeping them from wandering off too far and even cleaning them a little.
i think they had some talks about life on the streets and not knowing who your dad is.

Who took those terrific pics? I wish I could
take care of l'il grey guy, but I'm afraid Stella

I vote that we call him Thomperclork for short, but his full name should be "Paperclip AKA Thom Yorke of the Popular UK Recording Act Radiohead"

Oh yeah, and "EEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!" I haven't even met Thomperclork and I love love wuv him! Don't give me allergies, little twerp.
