You Cat-lovers better sit down for this - you may get weak in the knees :)

I'm sorry for the fuzziness in this picture above but he wouldn't stop moving. I still wanted to get his little face out there just in case someone falls in love with him. He is not quite old enough to be adopted. 4 more weeks for him.




Hey, look what I can do.




Thank you all for your nice comments regarding Maggie. I have great faith in my Vet and hope with all my heart that Maggie responds to one of Dr. Ann's remedies. I know we have a rocky road ahead because of Maggie's age. She will be 18 this June.

I walked to my cat-sitting clients today because the weather was warm & sunny here. I stopped in to visit a lady who fosters for our local pound. She is a cat-lover and opens her home and her heart to the homeless cats. We live in a rural area where cats are dumped often. They are never spayed and invariably are pregnant when picked up by Animal Control. The kennel holds comfortably (I use that word loosely) 25 cats but at this time of the year and right up to next Fall it will be over-crowded and it will be filled with kittens also. Many adoptions are made there but not enough. This is where wonderful people like Shelly make the difference. She has two moms and 8 kittens at her home that she takes care of and socializes and then will adopt them out from there. I happened to have my camera so I took a few pics.

  2. Oh they are so sweet. I love the babies. I am feeling the call to help in some way with my shelter. I am afraid I would want to bring them all home with me. That would never do.

  3. Those are some adorable kittens! If my husband and daughter weren't both allergic to them, I've have a cat in a heartbeat.

  7. Oh, Deb...I wish I could take the little black one with the smudgy markings on its face! Cute! I am telling myself that these are my last four because there won't be anyone to take care of mine if something happens to me. My daughter has six dogs! lol It's so nice of your friend to foster those kitties. I just know that if a kitty came in my door, it wouldn't leave! All of my positive thoughts and prayers for your sweet Maggie...keep us posted...hugs...Debbie

  8. Ok, box them up and send them to our farm!! Oh how precious those kitties are. I could just imagine the look on our Ella Bella's face when all those little kitties arrived! She would pack her bags and move for sure!!! She barely tolerates Tom Tom and Bobby.
