This is Royal. That is the name she came with from the shelter. I, however, am calling her Mama Kitty. She and her litter were shoved in a box, and left on the porch of the Animal Welfare Society. Since the shelter is OVERFULL , Our family is fostering this family for a few weeks until they are adoptable. She is such a good Mama and takes excellent care of her babies. The kittens are about 4-5 weeks old. They’re still nursing, however they are eating wet food, too. I *think* that Mama Kitty is trying to wean them slowly. Doesn’t she look like her expression in this photo is saying- “Yes, I AM weaning them, so that they are ready for YOU to come and take into your home and love!” They all have slight colds – nothing bad, in fact it’s nearly gone, but one of the kittens, I’ll call him Oreo, has it the worst, and he’s a bit snuffly.
They are just finishing up antibiotics to take care of that.
Oreo is a teeny bit shy,but will nudge your hand for a pat and a snuggle. He really loves to play- he’s been chasing around kitty balls and a wee mouse for a bit. Isn’t he sweet? He’s definitely fuzzy,and had great markings. Most importantly, he is wanting someone to play with him!
Meet Dandi ( for dandelion puff- which is what he looks like- and dandy, for how he acts! ) 
He is the most confident of the three. He is adorable,and he KNOWS it. He is happy snuggled up in your arms, will chase a string, bat at his siblings, bother his mother, eat up a storm, and generally steal your heart. He is super fuzzy, and I’ve noticed he keeps himself well groomed. He really is a special kitten. No fear in him!
Now,the special one. This is Gris- Yes, she is black, but, she has all kinds of little gray hairs poking thru (kinda like me!) Couldn’t call her Forty, now could we? 
She is the most shy of the three, but with a bit of patience, she is becoming a lovebug. She likes to hide, and peek out at you, almost as if to say “SURPRISE!! I’m here! Just take some time and win my trust, and I’ll reward you with some special purrs!!” She delighted me the other night with popping up in the mirror, hissing at herself, and generally scaring herself silly with her reflection. Darling kitten. She, too, is a healthy eater.
All the kittens are adorable, but my favorite really is Mama Kitty. She’s not much more than a kitten herself. She has such class, such love, such HOPE in her eyes. I can’t say enough about her, so I’ll just add more photos.
Please. Please love me. give me a chance. I promise I’ll be good, and I’ll love you back. Just take a chance on me!

It’s so wonderful that you’re fostering the local shelter’s kittens! I would love to do this, but my parents would never let me. (We already have two 5 year old cats that we got when they were kittens.)
Those cats are so adorable and I hope they found wonderful homes.
