Introduction

This site is dedicated to my experience as a foster care provider for a previously stray pregnant cat. She had her babies on September ninth and the babies are doing just fine. Most are already promised for adoption. You can check the status of the kittens here.

    And so it ends

    Filed under: The Fosters;

    Due to a radical emergency I was forced to load up the kittens and Madonna and send them on their way with Mandy last night from the shelter. Thankfully most were already spoken for and they were allowed to go early. The people that adopted them are truly wonderful and I’m so glad the kittens are going to be happy. I got a report from the adopter of the two siamese girls and she said they’re prancing and playing. So there should be no problem.

    It suck worst for me because of selfish reasons. I have no closure. Everything happened within 2 hours. I didn’t even get to hug them or say goodbye. But that’s OK, i did the best I could and they were happy.

    This is the last picture I have, from right after getting the call and i was getting them ready to go. :(

    I’ll miss all you furry little kittens. And Madonna will always have a special place in my heart.

    Thanks for reading!

    Don’t have a ton of time, things are hectic right now. but i’ll say this. Kittens make a lot of noise as they grow up and they find ways to pounce on your head while you’re asleep. For no reason at all. At least mine do.

    The other thing I found interesting. You know how kittens pile up together when they sleep? Well they’ve determined that I need to get involved. When i go in to watch TV they pile up on me. I always fold my arm across my chest so one of them can sleep there. They seem to like it. but slowly, all of them make their way up there. To the point that I have to lift my head and hold my chin high so I don’t smash them. You would not believe how much heat they generate. I can be sitting there comfortable and they pile on. Inside of 20 minutes I’m sweating profusely. No joke.
    With that, here are some pictures I took last night. I don’t even bother saying which name goes to which cat when it comes to the white ones, I can’t even tell anymore.

    Aby really like to lay on her back and play with my hands. She doens’t bite them, just softly scrapes them with her paws. She does it so gently it’s cute. Often times her paws will end up together and it looks like she’s praying.

    After playing she gets tuckerd out. Here she was biting her feet and tail. Sometimes they don’t realize they’re biting their own body. Aby will do it sometimes then cry out because she bites too hard. Seriously.

    When the kittens pile up and I get too hot I have to move them off me and they stare at me like I’m an idiot.013

    You can’t really tell but this blanket is ruined. IN order to preserve my bed spread I fold it over when I lay down because the cats love to play on and around my legs. But this blanket took the brunt of the attacks, and has so many snags it’s just destroyed.

    Everyone is happy and healthy. I can’t believe how much they’ve grown. They almost look like cats!

    It looks like we’ve got another qualified applicant for the two tabbies, and Mandy has someone interested in Jackie. That would mean all kittens are spoken for almost two weeks before they can go to their new home!

    I’ve got some obligations that might prevent me from posting for a couple days. So if there are no new posts before early next week don’t worry, the kittens are just fine. They just poop a LOT. So far since I started this blog I’ve only missed one day. Other than that I’ve posted every day.

    Here’s the last remaining kittens that are hopefully adopted now.
