The kittens have visitors
Stephanie and her daughter stopped by to visit her kittens. Stephanie is moving into a new home and felt uncomfortable bringing them into the home with so much going on, which is why I am kitten sitting them. They spent some time with them when they adopted them and then they came to my house, so I imagined they were aching to see them. I offered to have her - or them - over earlier but it didn't work out.
We had a very nice visit. I was also very impressed with the kittens. Sprite went right up to them and Wryn was willing to go right up to them, but preferred to start from the back (you can see her in the photo above behind Stephanie (on the left)
We sat there and talked while the kittens got used to them, and it didn't take long at all. I was so very proud of them.
It has been probably twenty years or more since she had kittens in her house, so she had a lot of questions. Yes, I was in my glory.. but it was hard on me because I don't want to come off as obnoxious. I know I am far left of the standard of cat care - being a raw feeding, minimal vaccinating kind of cat owner. When you ask me about nutrition, I am going to tell you what I think, but on a one on one situation like this, I feel the need to be careful. I was so thrilled that I didn't turn her off, and Stephanie showed interest in learning about raw food. I did my very best not to squee when she took out a pad of paper and started taking notes.
Wryn and Sprite are two very lucky kitties!
The girls are going to be a very welcome addition to Stephanie's home, and they kept joking how her daughters would be over far more often once the kittens move in. (If I'm without kittens for too long, I might just show up at her house)
The kittens will be leaving me a week from Saturday. I am so happy for them. Stephanie's joy is absolutely infectious, and it has done me a world of good to watch them interact with the kittens and see how much they love them already.
and I have this feeling that I'll be getting regular updates on them once they do leave.

Yippee for all, especially for potential updates!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting. This worked out well--you get more kitten time, and they got adopted but won't have to worry about moving them.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to see a family so excited about the kittens and already putting their welfare first. We hope we'll get updates, because it sure looks like those two lucky kittens are going to have a great new life!
ReplyDeleteSo wonderful! Wryn and Sprite are certainly lucky kitties, but their new mom is just as lucky to bring these sweet little girls into her home. Looking forward to the updates.

What a wonderful visit. I love kittens (who doesn't?) but I don't think I could handle them - I know my oldsters couldn't!
