Harry & Elijah, sweet foster kitty friends

Harry, a medium-hair black-and-white kitten, and Elijah, a silky, short-haired black kitty, are hanging out in foster care until they're ready for adoption. They're not brothers, but they've become great friends and love to play together. They're both very mild-mannered and love to sit on laps to receive nice pets.

Elijah's origins are a mystery - he was dropped off at the shelter. But Harry found his way to Abbott Northwestern Hospital in Minneapolis (he was found in the parking ramp) because he was in desperate need of medical attention. He had a nasty abcess on his shoulder and a low red blood cell count (anemia). He's building up his strength in foster care, but soon he'll be fixed and ready for adoption. Elijah's already been fixed - hopefully he hasn't been frightening Harry with horror stories about the procedure.

Elijah has a very sweet talking voice, but Harry's is rather odd - instead of meowing, he croaks. Check out this video to hear them talking to their foster mom (probably asking for wet food).
