Because five of the kittens are pretty much the same colour, it's impossible on first glance to tell the difference between then. In fact all five are marked with a colour in their armpit area so that I can tell who is who. Wendell, obviously, doesn't need a mark.
I usually take photos and make a note of who I've photographed, but this time I forgot. So I have no idea which kittens are in these pictures! Never mind, they are still adorable.
It is starting to get a little easier though. Both Hope and AnnElise have subtle markings on their noses which will become more obvious as their tortie markings develop. It's still much quicker at this stage to check their armpits though! As for the three boys... well, that's a bit more of a problem. The darkest of the paler ones is Kenneth, but it's really too subtle a distinction to be of much use yet.
I suspect the kittens will grow up thinking being lifted up and having their armpits inspected is a normal human greeting :D
