They just transported the family up to me today. Mama was a stray to the shelter, and she had her pups on 8/31 in the shelter. I will be fostering them until they get adopted.

Are the rest going to get other Hurricane names?

Their little ear flaps are the cutest!

Or you could go the hippie route and use names like Rain, Wind, etc. I would avoid "Stormy" though.

So I think I will do hurricane names, it is appropriate with this litter.

I didn't know that they recycle the names every 6 years. I'm glad they stopped naming them using only women's names. I found that insulting, as a female. I was thinking that the next deadly, over sized, unstable storm should be named Donald but I bet tRump would be flattered and love it he's such a narcissist.

You are so nice to foster them.

How about Gabrielle (Gabby) for the girl. Hurricane Gabrielle has already emerged.

Mama really is beautiful. I really wish I had more
room for another one. I hope you are able to find homes for them. Puppy breath is one of the sweetest things on the planet. Enjoy! ❤
