Three little kittens

Almost two weeks ago, we adopted these three cute kittens (who aren't really all that little, but kittens just the same).  They will hopefully be great mousers someday!  For now, they are happy to chase a bobber while Dane goes "catfishing."
From left to right, Sunny, Bessie, and Rosie.



                                      
They like to follow us all around the place.  Yesterday, they came running down the driveway after us as we walked to get the mail.  By the time we turned around and headed back up the driveway, they were lying down and panting from such a long run!
Miss Bessie is the shy one.  She follows us but keeps her distance a bit more than the others, for the most part.  She is still quite tame and likes some extra attention from time to time.
Sunny is the mellow guy.  He likes to be very close to us, and is very tolerant of the kids.  Just yesterday, Dane picked him up, carried him up the steps of the swingset, and gave him a ride down the slide!  And while they all are quite purr machines, this little guy starts purring the moment he sees you!
Rosie is the one looking toward the camera here.  She is kind of the leader of the pack and always very vocal.
We really like our kittens!!
