Super Heros story time with Travelin Jack



When it is time for the kittens to go back to be neutered, I like to have "story time" where I explain to them what is going to happen over the next few days. I know a lot of people have a negative connotation when it comes to neutering and how upset kittens will be over losing their bits, but I frame it as a right of passage.


I know that they don't understand the words, but somehow I do feel they know. When I forget story time, packing them up seems more stressful for everyone. Since this group is already neutered, they are going back to be adopted. They have an adoption event waiting for them at PetCo on Saturday so I talked about their next great adventure that will involve whole homes to roam and beds to sleep on. And who better to help me with "tails" of adventure than Travelin Jack?

It is always a little bit sad when the kittens have to go. I like having them here and having Batman meep at me but I know that going is important and they have people out there waiting for them (even if they don't know it yet)


Good luck little ones and thank you for sharing part of your life with me

  4. I always like to explain tell them to just turn on the charm and act extra cute for the adoption events. I always say I'm sorry thry have to go through the stress, but eventually they'll get to go to a big house where they can run around and a family that loves them and can give them more attention than I can and hopefully a furry buddy for company.

  5. As others have said, these kittens are going to be adopted quickly, since they are so friendly and adorable. And you'll have room for the next batch.

  6. I would not be able to go to work if these bunch lives in my house. I'm applying for FMLA really quickly.
