    something happy to report.

    Well with all that hoopla with TdF, Python witnessing the cat accident and others with their problems/difficulties/situation, I wanted to inject something up-lifiting; images to help relieve the sadness/anger/sorrow.

    Some of you may have read that I do foster work with cat rescue group www.purrfectpartners.com. Last week, three of my kittens were adopted and I have three more who are ready to go to their new home. I'm really happy that the kittens are all going to a nice home and wanted to share the pictures of remaining three kitties.

    hmm... It's still listed as Deirdra's Kittens but that's okay. We took over the care after their baby picture (5 week old) was taken. And Pookie's brother Spookie is still listed with his early picture. Spookie was adopted out last week. I always cry when I hand over the kittens but it has to be this way.

    So many kitties, so little time.

    I saw a pair of kittens at the shelter yesterday who were so active with each other it would be enough to make someone quit watching TV. they were each orange and white but where one had white markings, the other had orange!

    Hmmm. I wonder how Dinah would feel about a foster cat?

    what precious little ones you have!! the middle "child" would be my pick..my "prince" would not be happy to share his kingdom with anyone else. (previous owners had to oust him for sending 2 of their cats to the vet for stitches). I would love to have more though..

    SC - that second picture looks like a contest winner! What a great photo! And, of course, all the kitties are cute, too

    They are adorable and it is so great that you fostered them. I know it's hard to let them go but imagine the lucky people that adopted them They will have happy lives thanks to what you did.

    That IS fantastic and happy news!

    The gray kitten is beautiful.

    I have a lot of admiration for people who are able to foster animals before they find their new homes. I don't think I'd be able to. I think I'd find it difficult to relinquish them for adoption thus making me the crazy animal lady on the block.

    Nice job, smilingcat.
