 Jira and Rai moved to a partner store on Saturday. They are 100% but need to be exposed to more people and new things. Plus while they are on the rescue website, adoptions are always faster when people can see them for themselves. 

In the meantime, there was a family of cats living near a rehab center. Mom and dad will be TNR'd but the kittens aren't totally wild so we are going to give them a shot. Mom picked them up on Thursday. One boy and two girls about 3 months old. The tortie seems less freaked out, the orange is hissy and the calico would like us all to drop dead. Haha. Our friend Miss Heather does more with hissy kittens and came over on Saturday to give her opinion. Shes thinks they will be ok with some time and work. 

After some thought, mom moved the tortie out to the crate in the living room to see if that little girl will socialize a little faster.

Now for names. As you know, we love a them and mom thinks she's funny. So please meet the traffic kittens:

Have a great week everyone!

 Since we are generally posting once a week on Mondays, mom is trying a new title strategy and just using the date. Not exciting or anything but easier.

Jira and Rai are doing SO much better. Jira now will come up and ask for pets and then snuggles in for attention. Rai still takes some encouragement but doesn't mind being held. They weirdly still run if mom gets up to walk around but that may just be them. 

Also Mocha is back taking a break from the store. NO idea how she isn't adopted yet. She is absolutely adorable and very sweet. Great with the other cats too. Plus she was tested on stairs and immediately figured them out. 

Also on break is another kitten named Swayze. He's very good with the cats but a little unsure of mom. They both got here Saturday afternoon so he no doubt just needs a couple of days. 

Otherwise we seemed to skip the nice open windows part of fall and skipped right to the dang it's chilly part. Of course that means the heat is on so yay floor vents. 

We hope all is well with all of you. Send sone good adoption vibes this way!

Kitten report

 Be sure to always carefully store your tabby cats. 

Sparrow will go back to the shelter on Friday ready for adoption. She's been a very good girl and would be a great addition to any home. She has had a great time playing with Boba and Buttons as well. 

The tuxedo boys are making progress. Jira (lighter face) has started to purr when held and relax more. Rai is still more uncertain. They do both run around in circles when mom goes into the room so it will be a little bit before they get any freedom. Fortunately they do like food and especially churu.
