Story
Calypso is a tiny kitty with a big personality! She is about 2 years old but is very petite and is a big talker. If she is hungry, you will know! Very friendly and loves making biscuits. Silky soft fur about equal amounts orange, black and white. Is a very pretty quintessential calico. Hopefully we'll be able to get a moment soon for a picture where she isn't on the move!

Story
Rocket (aka Captain Clover Pocket Rocket - his full moniker.) Is friendly but also a surly dude! He likes things on his terms. His fur is very dense and soft and one cannot help snuggling despite protestations. He is currently confined in the house which contributes to his attitude as well as his children still living with us and taking attention away from him! (He does cuddle with them sometimes which is adorable). He would LOVE to be able to roam inside/outside as a barn/shed cat pursuing his true calling as a mouse assassin. We are currently un-able to offer that life to him however.

Story
Pixie is the sweetest tempered older kitten (she was born in May of this year) and will start purring the instant she sees you. She has these beautiful liquid gold eyes that melt you and large bat-like ears. Mostly white, with black ears, tail and black splotches on her back. Viewed from one side her markings make it look like she's wearing a belt!

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Rita is a petite little lady who has done a wonderful job raising her kittens and is ready to be the center of attention. She is a little timid at first, but warms up quickly. She is very playful, both with her kittens (Rocky and Lucy) and with toy mice. Her favorite thing is to snuggle in your lap and enjoy endless head and cheek scritches. Rita enjoys sitting on the windowsill or cat tree and watching the birds and squirrels. She also enjoys watching TV. Rita can be a bit territorial, so she would do best as an only cat or as a duo with one of her kittens.
