They are about 5 weeks, their eyes are just changing from blue and it looks like all three will have some shade of green eyes.
They are easily cuddled, did not fight when I caught them, but they are very, very timid and boy do they know how to spit and hiss.


I just need to get them calm enough to eat, and teach them what the litter box is for.
We know they know how to eat as we've witnessed them eating with the adult ferals when fed, they are just scared right now.

Well, I live/work in an RV park and the staff all have RV sites with cabanas and the momma cat had them in my boss's cabana, behind her deep freeze.

We only have three ferals here, the momma cat and her sister, who are feral, but used to humans as we feed them as does the people at the RV park next door.
The third is a semi-longhaired red/white tabby, and fully wild, you only ever see him as a blur out of the corner of your eye after dark.

The girls are eating now, they are pigs, they split two 3ounce cans of kitten food a day, plus they have dry purina one kitten in their dish at all times.

Not much for food around here, and very little that is kitten or all life stages, I'll probably order better food from online somewhere.

Update!

All three girls now have homes!
The un-named black girl is now Onyxia (Ony for short the WoW players will get the ref.)
My boyfriend is taking her, which means I keep her until July.

All three are doing great, they can't be turned loose in the trailer yet, but we put up my tent today and we take them out in the mornings and evenings when it's cool and let them spend a few hours with some hardcore kitten play.

They are eating well, both canned and dry, they are drinking well, and have been perfect at litter box training.

The best part about my BF taking Ony is that she and Jade will likely get reunited sometime down the road.

But really, I'm just happy knowing that all three have loving homes now.
