Former Foster Friday February..



Last February I did a "Former Foster" post on each Friday.  I'm hoping that a few of the owners of some of my former fosters will volunteer to write up a few words on their kitties and how they have fared since adoption..

I thought I would start this off with Kit.  I know this is kind of cheating since all of my cats are former fosters at this point, but it is late, and without kittens I really don't have much to say and I had this photo of Kit on my husband that I wanted to share.

Kit adores my husband with a wild abandon that I don't think any of 'my' cats even begin to rival. She curls up on his chest when he is sitting or laying down, at least once a day and stares up at him with such love and adoration that he will often lament he is just not worthy of. She will sometimes come and snuggle up to me, but that is only if she is in a snuggly mood and he is not available..  She only weighs six pounds, but she is a little spit fire when it comes to trimming her nails and grooming her, and the only way I can usually get it done is by having my husband tell her that he wants her to have her nails trimmed.  Jack sometimes gets a little jealous of her, I am unsure of why, and will harass her for a few days.

She used to, and will still occasionally, play fetch - chasing toy mice we throw for her and bringing them back to us. She also has started to become viciously car sick when ever we take her to the vet, drooling quite badly and doing so for hours after the fact, which can make caring for her difficult, but fortunately other than a few abscesses (thanks to Jack) she has been pretty healthy.

  5. That is so sweet. It's true that sometimes it seems the girl kitties are ga ga over their dads. She's so pretty! This is a wonderful picture!

    Annie does the same thing as far as getting car sick and drooling. It happens within the first 10 minutes of being in the car (and she also goes #1 & #2). It's so sad and makes me never want to take her to the vet.

    It sounds like hubby knows how lucky he is to have such adoration from her. :)
