Gumdrop

Their names are Mamba, Gumdrop, and Ike, named after sweet fruit-flavored candies, perfect for the upcoming holiday!

Mamba

At just 12-weeks-old, these black Domestic Shorthair triplets are beginning to show their playful personalities. As they run under desks and sneak-attack each other from behind garbage cans, it’s quite apparent that these three kittens are from the same litter.

Each of them wears a ring of black in the center of the top of their head framed by their ears, a small crown for a couple of very small princes and a princess. Weighing just over 2 pounds, these kittens only know the life of having fun with their siblings and getting a few brief hugs and cuddles in between from the office staff.

Ike

They’re still a little shy around people, but once introduced, their hesitancy turns into a “Let’s play!” mode. Sitting still is really not an option when there are three kittens in the room.

And the best part of watching them play is that the rest of the world with its cares and woes and frustrations seem to melt away.

Are you ready to make the holiday season a whole lot sweeter by adding a little four-legged bundle of kitten-candy into your home? We promise you that you won’t gain a pound! And there won’t be a need to join a health club come Jan. 1.
