Just a little evening play time for the girls.
How is it that these two confident kittens are still available for adoption? I'd love them to go together, but they would be fine in a home with another young cat or folks who are around the house to keep them company.
Lily has left the building. This adorable kitten has been adopted and now joins a feline brother named Frodo and a family with two girls who adore her. Her new family has chosen to keep her name since it suits her so well.
To see Lily's journey, please check out her album on our website;

Monday morning momma time, Rosie with her flowers.
Momma Monday. It hard to believe I had to wear leather gloves so I could handle the kittens when Rosie first arrived. She now chooses to come and sit beside me, with the loudest purr ever!

Catnip party, for one. Go, Rosie!
momma
Momma Rosie has cared for her kittens for 8 weeks. Given her history, she has never enjoyed this opportunity to raise her kittens in a safe and secure space. Rosie greets me at the door every time I enter with a steady purr. She casually watches her kittens' antics, romping around as I clean litter boxes and refill food dishes.
Carrier training is part of the daily enrichment for kittens. Short trips, arrivng at a familiar place, become a normal acitivity. The carrier itself is always left in the foster room offering another option for a cosy bed.
chill
Can she be more chilled?
Kitten shenanigans! The kitten's personalities are becoming more distinct. Lily is a little more reserved and cautious when exposed to new situations. However, she is usually the first to approach a battery-operated toy while her siblings stand back and watch. Daisy is more physically active and always on the go. She was the first to figure out how to climb up the back of a chair and discover the ledge in the kitten room.
At this age, care is taken to ensure the kittens cannot access heights they may get injured on when getting down. Time in the kitchen is supervised to ensure the kitchen table is off-limits. In the kitten room, cat towers on their side are placed around the perimeter of the foster room as the kittens learn to jump up and down from the built-in ledge.
The flower bouquet is now 7 weeks old. 🌷🌸🌺🌼
