Lazy afternoon with my baby boys, looking patriotic against red and blue bedding.

Kittens in repose. Leaning on my left foot is my five month old tuxie, Eno Baby. At the foot of the bed behind Eno is Patty Briggs, my four month old Turkish Van.

Patty Briggs. Turkish Van kitten. In this shot, I snapped my fingers to get his attention and he looked right at me.

For this second snap, I tried to get him to open those gorgeous eyes, but he wouldn't stop giving me love blinks. Sweet little baby. 💗

So sorry for your loss. I just lost my senior kitty, a black cat named Lucky 3 weeks ago. She was 16. I had her for her last 8 years. I adopted two male newborn kittens about two months before she passed. They helped me tend to her in her final days. We've all been taking care of each other since.

My baby boy kittens. L to R: Eno Baby (black tuxedo) and Patty Briggs (Turkish Van).

They're adorable! ❤️
How old are they? I have a pair of kittens - they're my pride and joy!
That's Eno Baby on the left and to the right is Patty Briggs. 😺
