Fostering kittens and pups save lives

Poem For Fosters/Rescuers;
There I sat, alone and afraid.You got a call and came right to my aid. You bundled me up with blankets and love.And, when I needed it most, you gave me a hug. I learned that the world was not all that scary and cold.That sometimes there is someone to have and to hold. You taught me what love is, you helped me to mend.You loved me and healed me and became my friend. And just when I thought you’d done all you do,There came along not one new lesson, but two. First you said, “Sweetheart, you’re ready to go.I’ve done all I can, and you’ve learned all I know.” Then you bundled me up with a blanket and kiss.Along came a new family, they even have kids! They took me to their home, forever to stay.At first I thought you sent me away. Then that second lesson became perfectly clear.No matter how far, you will always be near. And so, Foster Mom, you know I’ve moved on.I have a new home, with toys and a lawn. But I’ll never forget what I learned that first day.You never really give your fosters away. You gave me these thoughts to remember you by.We may never meet again, and now I know why. You’ll remember I lived with you for a time.I may not be yours, but you’ll always be mine.

Pandoufla

These are some picures of the foster kittens and Newman in the closet. Newman is sitting in a sweet and low box.

Pandoufla Bubbita and Blackooch

These are the latest foster kittens. Pandoufla is a black and tiger Hemingway cat and a pest. He loves to sit on you and nuzzle. He likes to make biscuits with his big feet. He is a sweet heart and loves attention. Blackooch is all black and is the smallest. She also likes a lot of attention.

Bubbita is a female tiger cat. She is not as affectionate as the others, but she is sweet and well behaved.

Oreo

I am taking care of my daughter's cat Oreo. She is not a misses mom like Bandit. She was found in my daughter's yard. Her eyes were closed and she couldn't walk. She had to be bottle fed every four hours. She is good with humans and dogs but not cats. My daughter's older cat doesn't like anyone cats dogs, only my daughter. She is the poster cat for getting a dog instead of cats. She loves to growl. I can't get a picture of Newman and Oreo together because they can't even be in the same room. When I come to visit Newman greets me because I bring her food, she lets me pet her after she eats its get lost human.

Oreo with her tongue sticking out is on the right. Newman is on the left.

Culito

Culito is the smallest kitten in the litter of the latest three foster kittens, Pumpkin is the kitten on the left. These two are twin angora kittens. The biggest one has been adopted. Culito has the most purr-sonality. He likes to sit on shoulders and be a pest. He is very sweet. The two of them sit on my lap while I am blogging.

Kittens Ready for Adoption

These guys are getting ready to return to the ASPCA as they are old enough to be fixed and adopted. I had them for six weeks. They have been socialized, use the litter box and have recovered from upper respitory (kitty colds). I hope they get good homes, they have been through a lot their brother died not long after I got them. He had a intestinal problem. It was a birth defect. The others were on medication for upper respiratory infection. They eat well and play hard.

These kittens were adopted after they were socialised, with the help of Bandit, my cat. He gets along with all the foster kittens that I get. It is tough as I get attached to them, but it is better than having them stay in a cage for a month or six weeks until they are old enough to be fixed and then adopted. They get used to being in a house and getting used to finding their litter box otherwise, they will be having accidents when they get to a new home. When I receive them, they have accidents until they find their litter box. I have to keep them confined to one room. When they get used to one area I let them into another room until they have run of the house.

The Newest Kittens

These kittens are people kitties. They just want to sit on you, especially Culito. Culito is the smallest. She is very effectionate to the point of being a pest. The other one is Pumkin a little girl who likes to play and of course Jelly belly, the boy. Culito is my favorite, right now as I am posting this she is sitting on my lap and purring. These kittens will be ready for adoption in three more weeks at the A.S.P.C.A in Largo Florida. These kittens will be adopted fast, because they have nice purr-sonalities.
