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.

Peaceful

 The coffee kittens are back at the partner store and with another foster. Teenage kitten energy is a thing and it feels a little more chill here. Cortada was adopted on Friday. A family was interested in Gelato but changed their minds when they got there. No worries- we are glad they decided to adopt. 

The spice boys are now in the foster room. They are still a little skittish but getting better. 

We also have a visitor from the shelter for a couple of weeks. Sparrow is a little older and recovering from a cold. She is loose in the house. Which is ok though mom kicked her out of bed the other night cause she snores.

Otherwise we are enjoying some cooler weather and open windows. 

Slowing down

 Kitten season is mostly coming to a close here in the mid-west. With the rescue it will likely be shifting kittens in and out of partner stores. Most Petsmart store have time restrictions and this rescue does 2 weeks in with one week out. 

Mom picked up a couple of boys on Sunday who will both be here about a week.

The rescue also took in a group of 4 tuxedo kittens about a week ago (you've seen them on our social media if you follow us).

Since they are a bit spicy, they are named after Indian spices. We took 2 and our friend Miss Heather took 2. We have Jira (cumin) and Rai (mustard seed).

They were a little hissy when they first got here (their mom is truly feral so was spayed and released back to her colony). They are slowly getting more adjusted. It is interesting as they are very interested in the resident cats. 

At least with this time of year, spay/neuter appointments are easier to get. So these boys will be neutered on Tuesday. Then it is just working on more socialization. 

Also Buttons gets on the sofa and sits like this. It makes mom laugh
