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.

    This kitten came out pure white. With white ears and all fur.
    Hard to believe how much this little guy has changed.

    I decided the kittens just needed some breathing room.

    Yesterday I decided that it might be good to just block off the closet entrance itself. So I pulled the radiator and some other little things out that were on the floor. A few months ago I bought a small shelf i was going to use in my laundry room. But this seems like a better fit. Especially since, 5 months after buying it I still hadn’t put it up :)

    Kitten Pile!

    Filed under: The Fosters;

    I’ve been forced to make a small change. In the closet where the kittens are I have a gas radiator to keep it warm:

    But now the kittens have figured out how to get over the box. Well one of them (Danica). So I have to turn off the heater. It sits on the ground and the blades get hot. So if an unsuspecting kitten were to wander over to it they could get burned pretty easily.

    Since I turned off the heater that means it’s about 5 degrees colder in the closet. Still plenty warm for them to survive (about 73 degrees) they’ll probably bundle up a little more. Like this:

    And Tinker decided my drink was interesting. I don’t drink soda, but I bought this monster drink for a rare craving. I think she felt it was hers:

    I’ve got a problem. I went into the cat’s room tonight to sit with mom. She doesn’t like leaving the kittens and getting on the bed, so I took a couple pillows in and I sit with her. Normally I’d check out the kittens and count them. But I didn’t.

    I was there for about 5 minutes and I hear this muffled meow. Mom casually ignores it. I can’t figure out where it’s coming from, then she does it again. I pull the pillows back and sure enough, there’s Danica (i named her for her adventurous attitude and complete lack of fear. Like Danica Patrick the Indy Car racer.
