Foster Kittens

[nancyjac]

Maggie Moo and Baskin Robbins were adopted yesterday!  Yeah!.  All of my fosters were bumped from the surgery schedule on Monday because there were just too many others to do, but hopefully, all but Good Humor Man and Blue bunny, who are still too little, will be spayed or neutered tomorrow.  Blue Bunny will probably be ready for adoption in about another week and Good Humor Man will still be with me for a while.  Once Blue Bunny is at the shelter, I'll probably bring 3-4 others home for fostering.  I need to keep the numbers at 5 or 6 max I think.  10 is just a bit too much while I am spending so much time at the shelter with kitten day care and other things.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhh....(looking both directions to see if anybody can overhear me).....I'm not.  I've been gradually working on hubby.  I have him to the point of "3 cats are enough....but if we were to have a 4th one it would be GHM."  I've had him for almost 3 months now and I figure I should keep him for at least another month or two as a foster just to make sure he is really strong and stays well.  Hoping by then he will agree that he has become a permanent member of the family and we will adopt him.  If that doesn't work, I'll turn on the tears and promise to never ask him for anything else ever again....LOL.  Hate to resort to that though because I would hear about it for years....LOL.

Great to read such positive reviews on these two little ones for a change.  Not surprised to see them excelling under your loving watch, Nancy.  Can't wait to see some new pics.  How are you EVER going to give up little GHM????  Know that's the name of the game, but this one's gonna be hard (nothing against sweet Tucker : )

My babies are becoming monsters too Apple...LOL.  GHM is looking so handsome now that he is almost well and he has grown so much and Tucker is almost as big as my small adult female, Zena.  I need to take some new pictures of both of them.

Sooo cute... Happy for babies and for you.Great news, hon.
My "monsters" are about 9mo - I could barely remember they at yours age ...
It was when the started being really BIG, I remember this :-)

My two foster babies are doing quite well.  Tucker is about 3 months now and will be getting neutered next week in preparation for adoption,  GHM is pretty much back to his old self.   He is 4 months old now and almost up to 3 pounds.  He still has one eye that is a bit cloudy but seems to be improving.  If he suffered any vision loss in that eye, I can't tell.  His behavior indicates that he is seeing just fine.  He discovered mirrors the other day.  Was so cute to watch him play with his own reflection.  He couldn't quite figure out why he couldn't smell this cat he was seeing in the mirror....LOL.
