At the adoption event last Sunday, mom was stopped by a nice young couple. Come to find out, there are Rooney's (now Ragnar) mom and dad. He is doing great and is the baby of the family. His mom says he will follow her around and if she sits down even for a second, he is on her lap on his back with his big bunny feet up in the air. The continue to work with him on a leash and harness. PLUS - his mom has started volunteering every other week at Colony Cats (where Rooney was adopted from).
~~~~~~~~
Some of you have already seen this - possibly twice. Mom the techno-dork strikes again (though she swears she fixed it....both times).
~~~~~~~~
Since we are sure you didn't get NEARLY enough tuxedo goodness last summer.....we introduce this new family:
They were found under a deck. We don't think the mom cat is very old. Mom picked them up Wednesday when she went to check on the Greek kittens at the adoption center (they are doing fine - but no adoptions yet). She cleaned the foster room and let them loose. The momma cat stretched out and then picked a spot for a nap. The kittens all did their stretchy yoga poses and checked out the entire room. One of the black kittens even purred at mom. YAY!!
However, the momma cat threw up several times Wednesday night. She is super skinny and we suspect that new food and stress just didn't agree with her. Mom gave her a dewormer and hopefully that will help as well. Nothing overnight, so we are hoping the momma cat is back on track and feeling better. The kittens were eating kibble yesterday so at least she isn't their sole source of food. They are super cute and fat and healthy which is good as well.
No names yet....suggestions on a good theme always welcome. (just no people names....not our thing)
we are thinking another spice group - maybe all "c" names: Cardamom, Caraway, Chicory, Chive, Cilantro, Clove, Coriander

ReplyDeleteOh! Isn't it the best to get those kinds of updates? So glad Rooney/Ragnar is doing so well, and that his mom is volunteering at Colony Cats -- awesome!
ReplyDeleteBet that was fun hearing about one of the kittens. So glad that Ragnar has such a good home. Have a fantastic day.
ReplyDeleteLook at all those astonished blue eyes!
ReplyDeleteLove the spice names!
ReplyDeleteYippee for a new shelter volunteer! Just not enough of those, in our opinion. Beautiful tuxie mom and wee ones. And little house panthers, too! What a beautiful bunch.
ReplyDeleteAppreciate seeing them all in this update. I am terrible with names so I will do you a favor and give no advice!
ReplyDeleteMore tuxies! All dressed up and ready to be adopted (in a little while).
ReplyDeleteOh, theyr'e so cute! As you know, our mom has a weakness for black and white kitties. We're not very good with names, sorry.
ReplyDeleteOh, they're so cute!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend...
Noodle and crew
Hope the momma feels better soon. Glad to hear the kittens are fat and healthy.
