Although unnamed, Dusty is the son of Silky and Smoky. He has three sisters, who are also currently unnamed.
Dusty is in a basket with a comfy blanket with his mother and siblings. Their male owner mentions how the kits are eight weeks old and ready to be sold to new owners. Chelsea, their female owner, states that Dusty and his sisters are very cute and asks if they cannot keep them. The male Twoleg questions if she has any idea how hard it would be to keep five cats. Chelsea insists they can take care of Silky, her kits and Rosie. Her mate asks how they are supposed to take care of all six of them and Chelsea insists they’ll find a way. The male Twoleg explains they cannot take of them all and concludes they are selling the kits. A ginger-and-white kitten thinks they are only selling three kittens. After dark, Silky, Dusty and his sisters are seen fast asleep.
