Week 6.5

Sorry they are late, I haven't been feeling well.

This would be Lillie the mom.  ( I went to the shelter during the week and told the foster coordinater the names and sexes of the kittens, she made a few changes in spelling and over-rode the girl's name)

This would be the girl.  Originally called Bastet, now called Shakira.  It was quite humorous tonight as she did not have time to have her photo taken.  She just wanted to play.

This is Marty.  Marty has turned out to be one outgoing little boy.  When I took him to work during the week, he was all out and about interacting with the staff.  The girl and Rupert were both freaked and tried to find a place to hide.

This is Rupert. He is still way too quiet for my tastes.  He is usually just waking up from a nap when I go in and visit, and will sit in the comfy spot he's picked out until I move him.  I'm sure he'd eventually move on his own, but I just don't have the patience to wait.  He is actually the heaviest of all the kittens, and does eat and play (see upcoming photos) but he's just so darn quiet.

Dinner Time

Bath time vs Play time - guess who won

Home sick

I'm having another allergy attack.  Seems to happen every once in a while (and I so need to track it to find out what is happening now that I know this is going to be recurring) and I've been  having a really hard time since Saturday.  It starts with a sore throat, then moves from my sinsues to my nose, then into my chest so that breathing is very difficult.  I've been dragging myself through life but I finally decided to take a few days off of work and I slept in this morning.  I woke up for some breakfast to find myself covered in cats.  I fought my way out of bed, and when I finally made it back I saw this...

My kitties take such good care of me.

I need to update the foster's photos.  All three of them are now eating when I put down food which is so much fun to watch.

A former foster is famous

wow. that is a lot of "f"s.. lol  I got an email last night about one of my fosters from back in 2006 - Teddy.  He was adopted by a very nice woman who I met when I emailed her about an editorial she wrote.  Since the adoption I pet sit for them and met their other kitty Gypsy. 

So now Teddy has made it to the interwebs.  He is a weather kitty :) (and oh so handsome)

Week 5

Rupert is a little on the shy side...

Unfortunately the camera is a little slow.  Marty was playing with the toy to the right of him

The girls are eating

Rupert just sitting there.  He's still very quiet.  He does play, but he's more reserved then his siblings.  I weighed him though, and he's actually 3 or more ounces heavier then the other two.  Rupe is 1lb 6 ozs.  Marty is 1lb 3 oz and the girl is 1lb 2 oz.

New Camera

Looks like I might have finally hit upon a camera I actually like.
