    Is that the camera angle, or are the black one’s ears really that big?

    The black one certainly has expression – how ’bout Zinger?

    Yes, his ears are really that big. His paws are big, too – he’s going to be one big kitty when he grows up!

    Call the tortie Fenix and the black boy (I assume) Kimon Oh.

    Naming can take a long time. Just be sure to give them each a middle name….adds a little punch when you’re telling them to get down off the drapes.
