Vlad and Elektra?

Some of you may be wondering why little misses Elektra and Vlad haven't been making appearances on Kittenpalooza lately. Well, dear readers, I have happy news, and happiest news.

Happy news: they were adopted!

Happiest news: THEY WERE ADOPTED TOGETHER!!

Yep, that's right folks, Vlad and Elektra went to their forever home two weeks ago, and they went there together! It was a very serendipitous, actually. An employee at my vet's office casually mentioned that she was looking for kittens - preferably, a sibling pair. My heart sped up a notch as I said, 'I have kitten siblings for adoption...' And the rest is pretty much history. Happy, happiest, history.

While I'm always a bit sad to see foster kittens go, it's always so fun and rewarding to see them go to such perfect homes. Their new mom is just fantastic, and I'm sure they'll have tons of fun together. Their new home has lots of wicker in it (durable and good for scratching, I hear), and even a carpeted spiral staircase and balcony! Vlad and Elektra will be racing up and down that in no time flat! The girls share their new home with a mature cat, so it's even more awesome that Vlad and Elektra have each other to keep themselves occupied and entertained.

This week's posts will take a look back at sweet little Elektra, and bold adventurous Vladimira.  We'll start with photos from their very first photo session with Jason Putsché Photography, when they were just one week old!

Tiny Elektra had the most striking dark stripes from day one, and she only got cuter as the days went by.


Little Vlad, fearless from the start!


During this particular photo shoot, M preferred to always have her kittens in sight. She came out to check on Elektra and proceeded to carry her back to their nest.


It's so fun to see Vlad as such a tiny little thing, especially knowing what a spunky outgoing girl she grew up to be!


Next up: Vlad and Elektra at three weeks of age!
