    I hate people. These babies are very newborn, with eyes still shut and umbilical cords still attached. They were left outside in a bag in the Southern California heat.

    I brought them home then ran to petsmart for bottles and kitten milk and they are now fed and warm. I can't believe people sk this much.

    My husband and I will be fostering these babies until they are old enough to be adopted. Neonatal kitten care is hard and tiring but I'm so glad I have some experience and I was there and knew what to do.

    The kittens are two weeks old! All four babies now have their eyes open. Our little orange man was the first one to open his peepers and our solo girl was the last. She finally opened her eyes fully yesterday, on her exact 2-week birthday.

    My husband and I were joking that she didn't want to open them because she didn't want to see how messy her brothers are. All four kittens are great eaters and the boys especially have a tendency to be pretty messy.

    Our little orange guy looks. crusty in every picture because we constantly have to wipe his face lol.

    On to the names! These are just temporary as we still plan on adopting them out (though we're completely in love with them, we do still have our own adult cats waiting for our full attention back). My husband and I are both big nerds so we went for Lord of the Rings themed names.

    Orange- Pippin (always wants second breakfast), tuxedo- Sam (still the best eater, he's our little fat hobbit), black male- Frodo (he has the biggest, brightest eyes and loves an adventure) and black female- Arwen (the loveliest lady).

    Please enjoy these new pictures of the babies with their eyes wide open. They're starting to become a little more mobile though they are still very wobbly. They're definitely curious about the world around them now that their eyes are open, and they've also become SUPER snuggly.

    After a bottle they'll roll over on our chests and show us their bellies, make biscuits, and purr as loud as they can.

    Whoever gets to adopt these babies will be so lucky, these guys are already so loving at just 2 weeks old and they're gonna be amazing companions for some lucky humans.
