It is indeed, the EL train. My gf's apartment is kinda right next to it. Almost like in the Blues Brothers, except a slightly better situation.

Thanks! I made 'em myself!

There's a whole section of kitties on my website... it's http://toomanyhelicopters.com and just click on the picture to get there... I made a folder that I'll keep populating with whatever is the latest update...

Here's the latest update! (sorry the pics are so big. oops.)

Squeaker!


Luke and Jr, napping


Squeaker taking a bath


Bear, ready to whoop some butt!


Me tickling Cow. Good perspective on how small they are...


Their hard-workin' momma. My GF calls her "cat", but I call her "meow-meow".


Me petting Luke (aka The Warlord).


And here's a crap-ass video. It's pretty damn dim. And it's a week old. They're much better equipped at romping nowadays. When this was shot, waving arms around was a pretty big deal.
What a dork you are, Cow!!

No, seriously, what a dork you are, Cow!!!!

As far as personalities go, Cow has really turned into a spaz, and is by far the most aggressive and playful and claw-happy. None of them is expertly mobile by any stretch of the imagination, but Cow is the one who's been able to dart around for a good 6 inches in one burst without stumbling or tipping over.

For the most part, they're all still pretty awkward and have only just begun to walk with their hind legs holding their bodies up in the air. Previously it was more of a butt-dragging kinda walk. They now have to balance as they hold all their weight off the ground while walking.

New pics and videos should be coming soon, and a good new video will hopefully capture how mobile they're really becoming. It's probably just a matter of another week or something before one of them is able to hop.

I could sit and watch them for hours.

OMFG

Adorable!

Cow is rock and roll!
Squeaker looks like my cat The Necromancer.
Kittens rock.

After being chastised by a few people, I found a batch jpeg resizing program on the net, and have resized all the kitty jpegs to a maximum of 800x800. Much better for downloading and viewing now.

There are plans for a new photo shoot in the morning.

Dammit!! We want kitty updates!!

Please, please more kitties.

Holy cow, you guys! I actually will be updating it today, with some new videos of the newer improveder kitties, who are now little mosters who compliment their cuteness with running, jumping, climbing, all kinda good stuff. Eating and pooping, too! New pics and videos should be up later today. I'll letcha know.

Oh Christ,

Bring it on. Make my bore-ass Customer Service job a bit more interesting

So yeah, here's some of the newest family photos...

Bear





Cow





Junior, she's learned to read already!!



Junior + Bear, BFF!!



Luke





Squeaker





And the whole lot of em, still nursing after all these weeks, even though they're all doing fine eating cat food at this point.



They turned 6 weeks old this past Monday. It's funny to compare that photo with one from when they were little.



And here's a couple videos... most of the video I shot in the past two weeks is horribly underexposed as my still camera does kinda crappy video, has no control over anything, etc. I'm gonna maybe bring my camcorder over there to get some better video stuff. They are *maniacs* at this point, as I had expected.
