Kittens, Revisited

No, I do not have any more kittens in the house.  We are preparing for a familiar face as a house guest for the next week instead...

Some of you may remember Patches, we who fostered for six months before my mom-in-law adopted him.  This is a shot that we took of him over the summer, when it was still gloriously green out the window.  Anyway, he is staying with us for a few days.  I wonder if he'll still sit on my chest in the morning, like he did when he lived here?

BUT, one of the long-time volunteers at the shelter emailed me last night to tell me that Ophelia, one of our recent foster kittens, had been adopted!  That makes me so happy to hear.  It sounds like she is going to get a lot of love and care and attention.

That leaves five more of "my" little bitties that need homes.  I hope that they all get one soon!

Their profiles, which I wrote, are at:  http://www.animalrescue.org/available-pets.  Obviously, under the cat section.  They are for the little black kittens near the bottom of the cat section:  Hamlet, Horatio, Lara, Ellie, and Violet.  Take a look!

Update:  Hamlet, Horatio, and Violet got adopted too!  Everyone keep paws and fingers crossed for Lara and Ellie!

  2. Thanks! (Not that I can take credit for their cuteness.) And yes, there are so many cats that need homes at the shelter... I wish I could take them all!

  9. Me too. With your loving them as preparation, surely they'll find their way. Cute as they are. And BTW, Melanie -- would you be so kind as to change your gravatar to this blog and not the WordPress HofC one? I would love to check in on you more often and that would make things easier, when you comment chez moi. Hugs.
