Lots of updates!!!!

So as you may imagine things move pretty quickly here during kitten season. We have a lot of fosters in the house and they come and go at a pretty rapid pace.

Last weekend we had an adoption that made humom so upset she had to step outside to cry. We lost a long time house companion :( Mrs Mandolin finally found her perfect home. She went to live with a very nice young man as his only pet. We will miss her terribly!!!


Additionally, Mrs Guinevere (our Maine Coon Momma) transferred to another foster home. What a sweet, sweet girl she is. We know she will adopt very soon!


I think I also mentioned in an earlier post that Charlie (wolfie) went to rescue. Good news! He was adopted by a local family that loves him very much!!!

The rest of the horde is doing pretty well. We added 5 more kittens into the group to help out a fellow volunteer. She needed the space to take in another feral mom and kittens. The 5 we took were 5 weeks old and mingled with our 5 week old bunch just fine :)

We could be receiving another mom any day. She's an outdoor cat that is friendly and very, very pregnant. The lady that has been feeding her is supposed to advise us as soon as she's been caught so we can pick her up. We're hoping it's before she gives birth!!!! Worried we might not find the kittens otherwise.

So as of this moment we still have:
Guinevere's 4 kittens at 8 weeks
Cashmere Mom and her 4 kittens at 5 weeks
5 kittens at 5 weeks
Calypso mom with her kitten (5 weeks)
Calypso's 3 orphans (2 at 4 weeks, 1 at 6 weeks)
Nutmeg Momma and her 6 kittens at 3 weeks
Nutmegs 2 orphans at 3 weeks
Delilah (needs eye surgery)
Sybil (torti-point Siamese)

The camera feeds got changed around. We now have one dedicated to the weened kittens (with appearances by Cashmere mom that's living with them). One is still dedicated to Nutmeg and her 8. Lastly Calypso has a feed as well. She only has one baby with her full-time with random appearances by her orphans. All of hers are technically weened, however, wiggle the orange tabby hasn't been feeling well since his shots last Saturday so he's been getting dedicated momma time :)

If we get the other momma before she gives birth, we'll add another feed. Seems watching the birth has been pretty popular. Nutmeg had a large audience for hers :)

Needless to say humom stays exhausted! It's hard these days to get computer time :) We were on twitter last night for the first time in over a week. We apologize to all our furpals!!! We miss you guys terribly and will try to do better :) <nuzzles> and <headbutts> all around!!!!
