Survivors

Arlo

This little girl came to me with open wounds and had picked up a virus which wiped out her littermates. She's peppy and perky now and the friendliest little girl around.

Paul, the little orange guy is busy, busy, busy. He loves to play and snuggle too. Mary, his tabby sister is a little calmer but still peppy and playful.

She can be held like a baby, doesn't mind being belly up. She loves to snuggle. They survived a different virus but their brother Peter did not. I've been very busy playing animal hospital but now I'm back to playing with healthy kittens.

Paul has been neutered and the girls will go soon. They deserve great homes!

News from the Boys

Remember these charmers? I just talked to someone who adopted two of them. I'm thrilled that they have a good home and so happy to know they are together. I hope the others did as well even if I don't know their adopters.

Trading Cards!

Things have not been very happy lately in the kitten world but here's a fun thing. Trading cards for all adoptable kittens could be just the thing. I think I'm using the word thing all the time because I learned how to do this on Thing 5 of my 23 Things.

Maybe I'll make them trading cards when they go in for adoption. Anything to make them stand out.

Adoption News

I always look at the MCHA posters to see if any of my buddies are there. I saw Jagger and Cassandra. I was sad to see them still without homes but when I dropped off Iris, Irvin and Innis to join the kitten colony I found out that Cassandra and Jagger had been adopted. Donald is on the poster too but I didn't see him in the kitten colony so I'm hoping he has also found a home. I dropped in the cat colony for a visit with Indigo. She was so happy to see me and we had a fine visit. She seems content in the cat colony for now but I was told she already has a suitor and possibly would be picked up on Friday. I hope that happened! She's a very fine cat.
The revolving door continues.......soon you'll see my new babies: Peter, Paul and Mary.

Love Pets and Chocolate?

Too many possible readers are far away but for anyone in the area there is a benefit for the
SPOT clinic in Greencastle on Monday the 17th. From 5-9 their dessert buffet will be $10 and that entire amount goes to the featured groups. Monday night is for SPOT and a rescue group called Ark. I hope there is a good turnout, both groups can always use $$$

More Praise for Adult Cats

This is Johnny. When I approached him with the camera he began to pose. He's not laughing in the top picture, he's yawning but clearly he got the joke. He rolled, he bathed, he looked at me upside down. So not only are adult cats great pets but they are a heck of a lot easier to photograph!

In praise of adult cats

Lovely Indigo has gone to seek her fortune in the Cat Colony. I focus mainly on kittens but I really must admit that I've have some of the sweetest mama cats pass through my doors. I'm hoping Indigo will find the kind of home she deserves.

While kittens are totally adorable and (for me) irresistible there are lots of smart folks out there who head right for the adult cats.
