Oh my god. When I saw the pic, I immediately thought 'those black cats could be clones of my cat' and then I noticed that one also called Murphy... like my black cat. Spooky.
I hope they'll find a good home, unfortunately my appartment is too small...

They're about 4 weeks, they'll be ready to leave mum in 2 months. Not sure of the sexes yet but if one of the ones you want is a girl I'll put your name down for her! BTW, the multi coloured one we have just called Squeaky - you should hear the noise he/she makes!

Hey Grumpy, I've visited this thread a few times the past few days just because the pictures are so cool! Wish I weren't allergic to cats...

The new litter are so cute in their little sleepy bundle - much easier to tell apart the last ones, eh? And the two older blacks ones from spring are gorgeous. I'm sure they'll find wonderful homes!

hi, we are interested in a female indoor kitten too! We have a female american tabby about 8 years old already and live in a big apartment in Basel. Would like to be waitlisted for one :-)

if it doesn't work out, does anyone know of a Tierhiem or shelter where I can get a kitty??

Thanks in advance!!

Seeing as you are in the Basel area, contact the Katzenheim run by the Tierschutzbund Basel at:

http://www.tierschutzbund.ch/

(Nice people; one of my doggies came from them.)

Or, take a look at the Switzerland-wide homeless animal database at:

http://www.tierschutz.ch/cms/de/tier...unschtier.html

There are always cats looking for homes...

OOOO! Thank you Very very much! This is right near where I live and work, so I should be able to get an appointment and kitty very soon!

Oh, they have no kitties in Basel now. Any indoor cats less than 1 year old in die Schweiz ??

I keep looking.

Bruce,

If you are willing to travel a bit further, there seem to be several young kittens listed on the Tierschutz.ch database. Go to the link above, and search by 'Katze' and 'Altersgruppe'.

Good luck finding your kitten...

I think you can be pretty sure of the one anyway - calicoes are (virtually) always female.

Hi Grumpygrapefruit,

I'm definitely interested in one of your kittens - ideally a female one. My previous cat (who lived to the ripe, old age of 21) was a tortoiseshell, so I'd like a different colour (wouldn't want her to think she's being replaced). I love the look of the black and white one with the white stripe down the middle of its nose. Is it a 'she'?

I look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks,

Millsy

Dear GrumpyGrapeFruit

I am very intrested in one of the kittens.

I have another kitty at home just 14 weeks and have been looking for a little friend for her

We have a big appartment and we live in a "cat friendly" area so they can have lots of fun in the garden when they get a bit bigger ;-)

Looking forward hearing from you

Regards
Linda

They are fab! If it wasn't because I already have 3 gorgeous felines...
