Three Fortunatos

Mindy, mom to Pip, Warren and Gaetano Fortunto was kind enough to share some pics of her grown up babes. She's always sending me updates and it's clear these three bring her a tremendous amount of joy.

I know I say this with every alumni update, but I can hardly believe how huge they've become. In my mind, when they leave us, they remain kittens. It's always kind of a shocker to see them all grown up.

Thanks so much for sharing, Mindy.

  3. Look at how big they've gotten! Warren is so handsome. Pippa is absolutely stunning with her angular face and markings. And there's my all-time favorite IBK Gaetano, looking like he's trying to knead Pippa's face.

  4. I've been meaning to say for a while-- when you post alumni pictures, would it be possible to put a kitten shot in the same post so we can all boggle at how much they've grown?

  14. SO BIG!!

    how lovely to see 3 cats who LIKE each other! unlike mine who hiss and swat. but they are not littermates, nor ibkc alumni, so we're destined for doom.

  18. Big thanks to Mindy!! It's wonderful seeing them again. It's great to see the handsome adults they've become! And, I do love the pics that show they still love to play! (#3 above is great! Cool-spaz-cool!)

  20. I love the updates! And especially those gorgeous boys!

  21. Never say that's our Pippa? She's gorgeous - what a lady! And I add my wondering if Gaetano is still the adamant little biscuit-kneader he was (like the time he kneaded his sleeping brother into the sofa, poor thing!)? I'm glad for the update. What a treasure to have littermates who adore one another! My two aren't related by birth, so it's always sad for me when I don't see them cuddling up together.

  22. Pippy's a very exotic looking tabby- I guess it's her triangular head and BIG ears. They've all grown up into beautiful cats- though I too am shocked at how quickly this happened.

  23. They are so big and beautiful!

  24. Stupendously beautiful kitties!
    Gaetano is still my fave, but all IBK's are sweet.

    Sigh...back to class!
