They look so healthy! My favorite has a similar fur pattern.
We trapped her accidentally when she took shelter from a rainstorm in our garage. We only realized she was there when we heard her cries. About 5 months old, but tiny and infested with fleas. Her whiskers were so short and brittle. I loved her immediately, but looking back on pictures from that time now breaks my heart a little. Her life as a stray was clearly rough.
She was definitely an accidental cat for us, but she took to housecat living standards almost immediately.
She's still doing well in her old age.
