Feline Friday! January 6, 2023

Here are the 10 week old brother and sister kittens 

ready to go to their new home! They were fostered 

by our neighbors/good friends from the time

they were 6 weeks old. Their mother was too feral to be 

fostered in a private home. She has been spayed and

 has also had all her shots. The Humane Society has 

given the kittens all their inoculations and they 

have been spayed/neutered. They are being adopted 

by a family that will keep them together and 

they will be inside only cats!

Here is the sister kitty exploring and 

looking for her brother. She meows loudly if 

she cannot find him and he usually comes and

finds her!

Here they are playing on the stairs.

And here's our friend holding both- 

the sister on the left and the brother on the right!

The brother is named Peter and the sister is Piper!

Of course the folks adopting them might 

change their names!

And here is info on the brand new Cat Shelter!

We will certainly go to the open house!

Have a great day and a BIG THANK  YOU

to Messy Mimi for hosting Feline Friday!

Feline Friday and Friendly Fill-In Questions! March 11, 2022

This week we've had the pleasure of visiting

these three cuties each day while their family is

on a skiing vacation. All three are rescues

with different personalities.

Below is Fifi who was resistant to coming into

our friends' home for a few years. So they fed her

outside until she finally relented and now lives with them

and their two other rescue cats.  

Fifi is the least sociable and very skittish, 

but will now at least sniff my hand.

I had to use a flash- sorry about the glowing eyes..... 

Here is Muffin- she is a very talkative and friendly cat!

 

And finally here is Poo....a very very sweet cat!

He loves sitting on my lap and purring non-stop!

All three are very sweet cats with their own personalities!

Have a great day and a wonderful weekend!

One of my favorite cats was Larry. He was a neighborhood kitten that wandered around and my son Paul wanted to adopt him as the older neighbor didn't take care of his cats. We were going on vacation and I instructed my 18 year old to " NOT let the kitten in the house" while we were gone. 

Well... we got home and the kitten was lounging on our bed, making himself at home, noshing on yummy food and having a lovely time. Of course I took Larry ( yep he had been named!) to the vet and got all his vaccines etc. Larry was a fun cat, very loving and lived to be 20 years old! One of these days I will unpack all our photo albums and find some fun photos of all our cats to share! Have a lovely day....everyday!

Thanks Sandee!
