The Polar Twins are 4 years old tomorrow - PARTY!!!
Quark, aka Dave the White, aka Mr Lovely:



His sister Neutrino, aka She Flies!, aka Mui Kung-Fu Master:



Hard to believe it's been that long. Their mom Antimatter brought them over when they were about 6 weeks old, but we know they were born on or near the 1st because she showed up with her cargo hold empty :D.

Quark's been an indoor cat for 3 years now. We snagged Neutrino (along with their dad Imhotep) when we moved May of last year.

PARTY!!!! :party: :woohoo: :bounce:

4. Thank you, thank you
Their mom was a tiny white cat with blue eyes. Their dad is a huge pitch-black cat with green eyes - the vet thinks he's part siamese because of his build, his big warbly voice, and his double-curve claws. :hi:

5. Thanks!
He hears better than just about any cat I've ever met. I asked the vet about it, and she said that usually, white cats with blue eyes are not deaf. Some are, but they're in a small minority. :hi:

6. Happy belated birthday to your kitties!
The triplets turned 5 on April 6. We think their dad is also Imhotep, but there's no way to be sure short of blood tests :D. Immie's definitely Quark's and Neutrino's dad, though.

11. It was kind of an accident
Evie, one of the triplets, is black with green eyes. The momcat was white with blue eyes, so I called her Antimatter (soon abbreviated to MiMa). Her kittens were Quark, Neutrino, and Tachyon (who was black with green eyes, the spitting image of his dad). Tachyon didn't stick around - he was adopted by someone up the street.

Antimatter's next (and last) litter was Odin, Voodoo and Ovni. :D She was heck to catch, but we finally had her spayed. At last update, she sort of moved in next door to the ex-house, with one of the few nice neighbors we had.
