Introducing Florence and her three kitten babies! They were surrendered to our rescue, along with another mom and single cat(more on them in a separate post).
Florence ate and used the litterbox after 24 hours of arriving, which is a great sign of settling in. However, she seems very scared of me, so I’m leaving them alone except for weighing the kittens once a day.
Can you guess the name theme based on the name I choose for mom?
A request: I’d appreciate it if we could refrain from speculating about why Florence would be scared if she had a home, and why the mom cats were surrendered. There are so many different possibilities, and we can never know unless we’ve walked in that person’s shoes. Thanks ❤️ @fosterkittendiary said.

Names! The theme is “places in Florence”. So mama is Florence, and babies are:
1) Boboli = tabby girl (Boboli Gardens)
2) Fiore = calico girl (Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore)
3) Arno = gray boy (Arno River)
You might say I’m obsessed with Italy 😹 @fosterkittendiary said.

These are our beautiful mamas. Florence is the Torbie, and Chiodo is the tuxedo. Three of the 4 week old cats belong to Florence, and the little 3 week old tuxedo is Chiodo’s. Florence nurses all of them because Chiodo wasn’t producing milk. But as you can see, she still does her part taking care of the family 😍 @whiskersnpurrs said.
