Camera Critters/3 adoptions today

Please click on side bar and join Misty and others for more great photos of critters

Well this weekend we had 3 adoptions, Both of Shelby's girls was adopted out by some very nice people. Francie on the left was named that by her new parents. Once they are ready to go Francie will be a traveler in a motor home so she will have lots of new places to explore so that will be fun for her, i know all our cats love to travel.
And then there is Lilli Rose, that is what her new momma wanted to name her. She has other cats as well and also is a pet sitter so she has found a good place to be as well. Her momma said that she wanted to name her a flower name and mine was name was pretty and so she dubbed me her godmother. I was honored.
So then today Sammy's little girl got adopted as well and by golly her new mom and daughter wanted to name her Lilli as well. The daughters name is Rose so again it may be another Lilli Rose. I think they also like the spelling of my name. Again i am honored to have 2 beauties named after me. So it will be a few more weeks before they are ready to go to there forever home. I know they will be loved and cared for. Sure will miss them when they do go. That will be the hardest part of doing this volunteering of caring for babies.

If you been following me you all know that i have been fostering cats and babies now, with momma's not eating and me having to help bottle feed these little beauties. So just wanted you to have an update on both mom's. Both are now eating on there own. A huge step for all of us. Anyway this is the first momma's babies who are about 2 weeks old . I just got done feeding her, see that little milk around her mouth? Darn they are so cute.

Camera Critters/Update on fostering

Please click on side bar and join others for some great animals from around the world

I want to thank everyone for there kind words and prayers for our 23 yr old TC, remarkably she is still eating, walking and drinking, although i do feed her out of a syringe in between what she eats and drinks. She is holding her own. For awhile she wouldn't eat on her own,but she tries when she smells the food, always was big on people food and i guess she says she isn't ready to give that up yet. What a fighter she is.
Also i don't know if you have heard on the news about a blind Cat Named Cougar who took in babies that she is helping to raise. Anyway Lisa is a RV Friend of mine who has the babies go check out her blog and see this beautiful cat and kittens and keep track or there growth. Cougar's Blog

Well I thought I would update you all from my kitty family.
Here is a recent photo of Avery the baby that Momma Cat had this winter who brought them to me from below zero temps this Dec. Yes i have not been able to find her a home, she will now live with us. Isn't she a beautiful?


And here is Boo Boo, she is the one i had decided to keep from the beginning she is still very very small, she loves to sit here on my lap and watch me type to ya all, she loves to put her paws on the screen. Boy does she mess my puter up at times.
Now for my Volunteering for CRAFT the no kill shelter. Here is a update on Shelby if you were here last week for CC you can check out her story, a quick recape on her, she was not eating had these two beautiful babies actually 3 but the owner of the cat had taken it to the Humane Society but it died,Anyway Shelby just had these babies a few days before she was captured and brought to me, she would not eat or drink. I force fed her and force water to her, Pediolyte mostley and she did get a the IV fluids for a couple of days. Well i am happy to say that Shelby finally this Wednesday started eating and drinking on her own, I am so happy with her progress. And even tho she doesn't have much milk babies are doing just great along with my bottle feeding them. And also yesterday they started to open there eyes. Babies are going to be adorable. Now if i can get her to be not so skittish when i try to get her to move....



So in the meantime one of the other foster homes had what they believe to be either Shelby's sister or could be her mother, anyway she gave birth to 3 babies while in there care. But again she too would not eat, she was failing and also same thing not much milk, so they were bottle feeding the babies as well. But the lady works all day and with these babies they need to be fed more on a regular basis, and with momma cat not in good health and not eating she needed to be force fed. So i volunteered to take her and the babies in till they all get on there feet. So please meet
Sammie and her 3 babies.
She is not eating and is much more difficult to force feed then Shelby was. But we are making progress, i just got her on Thurs. And feeding her about every 2 to 3 hours, mostly concentrating on the fluids and then food. They brought me a big cage and so i can keep the babies separated a bit easier so momma can get a bigger break in between the feedings. They are taking the bottle pretty good now, so that will help momma a lot.

My first Foster Momma

So this is Shelby, which we have named, as she didn't seem to come with a name.
Last night i got a call from Laurel from CRAFT Asking me if i would take this momma cat and 2 babies. This woman who had her didn't inner act with the cats,so she acts a bit like a feral cat
, I understand that there was 3 kittens and one of the kittens went to the Humane Society that they are trying to get back, so momma can take care of it as well.

The woman is moving out of state and she was just going to leave the cats there and let them fend for themselves. I guess the place reeked of cat odor. Even when they brought her here you could smell the urine , very disgusting.

I don't do cat urine smell very well. People that come to my home have no clue just how many cats i do have, and when i tell them they are so surprised that they smell no cat odor. Am i bragging about this? Yes, I pride myself in having a urine free smell in my home.The key is the right cat litter, along with daily cleaning.

So i will be updated you here about this beautiful little Siamese cat, I don't think she is full blooded but does have beautiful blue eyes.
