Bedtime… but first… the joy of a blue feather!!
The gentle play of morning #8 of quarantine. Faedra is adapting so well! Her routine gets ever easier.... morning cuddles and naps, noon zoomies, afternoon cuddles and naps....
** Faedra is searching for her forever home. My travel schedule come the fall will have me out of country and unable to give her the bonded attachment she deserves. I know there is someone looking for a sweet presence in their life.... **
What can be sweeter than a kitty that is so grateful, she sleeps with her hand on your heart?
**FAEDRA IS NOW AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION** pm me for details.
bath time. because you never know when you have to look your best.
** FAEDRA IS NOW UP FOR ADOPTION IN THE OTTAWA AREA** pm me for details and application.
Lazy afternoon. This feather is bigger than I am! Need someone to remind you to stop and add some play to your day?
**ADOPTION NOW OPEN IN OTTAWA AREA** PM me for details.
And then this happened...
Out for a little walk with Faedra who loves her sling ... and then this happened! A reminder that I should never underestimate her playfulness and what she is capable of.
Definitely not a morning girl!!! We’ve moved to a new Airbnb, Faedra has been a trooper getting used to new sounds and smells, but last night she needed the comfort of a hiding spot to get to sleep. Seems like after a good stretch a cat nap is needed....
Now if only everything was wheely-friendly!
Well, someone is NOT camera shy!!!

March 17th 2021. Top of the morning to ya! Happy Saint Patrick's day to all my fans! I am walking like crazy and my foster Mama has stopped being so protective and is letting me explore! I like to explore the sounds outside and I especially like having my face caressed!

March 15th 2021. Today's game interrupted by a fly! I love her curiosity! I love the freedom and independence she is gaining with her new wheels. Faedra has always been playful and curious but seeing her be able to be a kitten in all her glory is just so incredible.

Got my balance and now I LOVE eating chicken, standing up!!! So much easier than lying down!

Hmmmmmmm. Discovering that balls don't have an automatic return function!
Faedra Physio
I am working with Faedra every day doing various exercises and physio, range of movement, stretching her limbs, harness time, and time in a little body cast harness. Here we are teaching her to feel her legs as she ulls herself forward. This was just before Christmas when we could only hope she would gain enough strength.

12 pm
Another covid walk… Jamie the lab picks something up in his mouth. We immediately tell him to release, fearing it is a rat. Instead, I see it is a cat.
A wee kitten, smaller than my hand, now feebly mewing in the dirt.
I rush over, and I notice a second kitten, extended, immobile. I touch it, and it is cold.
I know it will not be long for this little one, she is mewing with no sound, barely moving, I gently pick her up. It is my wish that all things are greeted by tender hands when they are born and held equally as tenderly when they die. Time to go back, to sit, to wait.
1 p.m.
We have given the little one some water as I hold her wrapped in warm blankets. She is so weak now. Friends have heard that we found her and someone brings water in which a piece of chicken was boiled. When i hold it to her mouth she immediately takes it and wants more.
It is Sunday, can we find a vet?
1:30
I have examined her and she is the sweetest grey and apricot baby with the blues eyes and the pinkest of noses. She is listless however and doesn’t move much, especially her legs.
2 p.m.
We find a vet that is open and willing to see her. We rush over. She is so tiny and precious already. Now I am whispering, hang on little one. Just hang on.
4 p.m.
Left the sweet one there. The vet is not hopeful. It is truly one hour at a time. She is hypothermic, dehydrated, and starving. She is listless and can barely move her arms and legs. She is also very very clean which means she is not feral, she knows humans and was left in the desert to fend for herself.
All I can do is wait.
