Love hanging out with my charges! I am very blessed to have some absolutely amazing clients who know they can trust me, and DO! And I've had the pleasure of sitting for these clients quite a few times now and it's really special to have a trusting bond and relationship with both my clients and my charges who know me well, too!
It makes things like separation anxiety and stress over their humans being gone, significantly less than a first time housesit can be while we learn each other. I won't be the provider for everybody, but it is worth it for every loving pet parent out there to find a good pet care provider who can BE your pets second-best friend π

Sweet Cockatiel visit
Just enjoy the sweetest little cockatiel I got to hang out with last night β€οΈ he had a rough start as his parents weren't very nice in the nest so he has some physical disabilities that his humans compensate for fabulously and he lives the best life!

A little time lapse of sorts for these baby beans! Where we came from, where we've been and where we are now! I have four kittens - two males and two females up for adoption and ready to go home soon! I am in touch with a local organization regarding getting spay/neuter done prior to them going home, but the application to adopt is posted below and in the comments.
$100 rehoming fee per kitten to ensure future homes know the commitment they are making! These babies come with a lifetime, no questions asked return situation. If for any reason you can't care for them, at any age and at any time, return them to us and we will take them back with zero hesitation. They'll never see the inside of a shelter or other rescue if I can help it, because they will always have a safe place to land with me!
Fully litterbox trained, fully dewormed with no parasites, shots and spay/neuter pending, hopefully to all be done prior to going to their new homes. They've been raised in a multi-pet and multi-species household and are all very curious and outgoing!
I'm happy to have any potential adopters come and meet them once they've filled out the application! β€οΈ Comment below if you're interested, please like and share this post to help reach these babies future homes!

Fly High Pidgey
I try to be educational on this page or just provide some wholesome cuteness for everyone who looks, to enjoy... but today my heart hurts so badly. Pidgey, my 1.5 yr old cockatiel got sick several days ago, and even with vet intervention and treatment, passed away sometime this morning and I can't even believe it's real and he's gone.
If you've been following this page for awhile, chances are you saw the reel I made of Pidgey with his little happy face poof and his baby cheep noises when you gave him scratches. I can't even fathom he'll never yell at me again with his larger than life personality, or he'll never cuddle up next to my face and ask for kisses and scritches. I think this is the only video I ever managed to get of his little face poof and I'll never not regret that. My heart won't ever not hurt every time Chicken says Hi Pidgey, but I will still smile, because you were here and you were so loved.
Please hug, cuddle, scratch and love your babies extra hard for Pidgey today. You never know when you'll be out of time and tomorrow is not promised for any of us. Fly high Pidgey, I am so sorry and I miss you so much already.
Alright folks, eligible (adoptable) Kitten-ette #1 is "Pink"! Let's meet her π₯°
π
This kitten enjoys slow strolls with you and lots of pampering in between her exercise routine πββοΈ
π You must be willing to listen to her long day about her diva adventures when she settles in your lap
π If you displease this little princess she's not shy in telling you, but she's pretty forgiving
π You'll be allowed pedestal status again soon though, after all we can all be as perfect as this little girl!
"Pink" is available for adoption (adoption fee of $100) and ready to go home soon! She and her siblings are fully litterbox trained and will go home with a very affordable spay/neuter appointment ,for when these babies are old enough, already made for them for which I will assist with transport. All kittens have been wormed on a two week schedule since 4 weeks old, have grown up with dogs, other cats and birds so are well-acclimated to multi-pet homes.
The link to the adoption application will be in the comments below!

Bath time for Chicken π₯° Chicken is a very sweet 1.5 yr old Green Cheek Conure - he loves to be included in everything you do and he can often be found riding around dangling from my shirt like a circus bird.
For this, I was rinsing his water bowl because he likes to dunk his pellets and make absolute *swamp* water, out of his water bowl. He was supervising this process and then just decided he'd get a jump on his daily bath π my heart goes all pitter patter when he does silly things like this, and I feel all gooey on the inside at the absolute trust to literally take a bath with nothing more secure than my hand holding him and the bowl up β€οΈ good boy Chicken

These kittens are 5 weeks old and THRIVING! They've had their nails trimmed three times, are weaned off of the bottle to kitten food with formula mush, have been wormed and are growing like weeds!
If you think you'd like to be a forever home for one of these babies, contact me directly and I will send you an application π my goal is to make fabulous matches for these babies so I wanna know as much as I can before I place them to make sure YOU get the best companion ever β€οΈ

This is girl #1, pink ribbon and she is going to be an opinionated little princess for somebody! Very sweet, absolutely precious (she's very slightly cross-eyed and it only adds to her charm π) and she's going to rule the roost wherever she lands - she been great with her siblings, foster mom and my own personal cats she's started to meet.
Everybody is eating kitten food now, fully weaned off formula and they are all doing very well with litterbox training!
These babies will be ready for their new homes in about 5 weeks or so - they are NOT free, I'll be asking a rehoming fee to ensure their future humans understand the lifetime investment they are making in these babies and these angels deserve the very best I can give them!
I'll be creating some brief application forms in the coming weeks to send to anyone who'd like to be a forever home for one of these kittens, so I can make sure temperaments and lifestyle are a match to make sure you have the best possible future companion AND these babies will live long and very happy lives with their new families π₯°

It's official! Just completed my NAPPS certification in the wee hours of the morning in between feeding foster kittens π₯° professional development is so important!
If you're not learning, you're losing; I'm so proud and happy to be an even better asset to any current and potential clients because of the initiative I took with this, I know it will pay off!

Yellow girl is already so cuddly π₯° love her already!
They're getting so big already! They've been with me not quite a week and they've already gone from cute little wiggle worms to little baby bean rockets racing me for the bathroom door since that's where they are staying since it's nice and warm in there for them.
Personalities are starting to show themselves and it's turning out several may turn a very dark Grey as they mature as they have some faint tabby stripes on their tummy, and one has the tiniest spot of white on their chest π₯Ή

Look at these beauty queens! I got to do a drop in with these pretty ladies a couple days ago and they are such a treat π₯° Gracie prefers to be worn as a scarf, and Kiki is growing like a weed! She's already as big as Gracie π€―
They are growing like weeds and Dirt is proving to be an amazing foster mom π₯° we will happily accept any donations of kitten formula if anyone has any to spare, just reach out to us if you're local to Marysville or Yuba City CA!

It's kitten season y'all! A member of the community pulled these little black baby beans out of their attic wall after momma cat disappeared after several days and rescues are already full and struggling so we decided to step up and help where we can.
Dirt, the young orange female you see featured here, was abandoned under a dumpster last year as a baby, herself. She's never had kittens and she's also never even seen babies, but I had a hunch based on the maternal tendencies I've seen in her, she might just take to them and foster them for everything but feeding, of course. And... she did!!! Y'all, she has never had babies but she is like velcro with these little beans and I am so darn proud of her - she takes care of them like she birthed them herself, it's beautiful to watch.
All of that to say though, we're bottle feeding these babies every 1.5-2 hours including over night and that's a LOT of formula, and what goes in must come out... if you are local to Marysville or Yuba City CA, we'd be grateful for any donations or gently used bath towels so we can keep up with changing out their bedding and focus on keeping them fed instead of many, many loads of laundry.
We aren't a non-profit, I'm just a community volunteer trying to help some of our most vulnerable critters, so it wouldn't be tax deductible or anything like that, but you'll have done a good thing and these innocent souls will be enormously grateful if you can help us out.
Please reach out to us @wag_n_whiskers_petcare if you have any gently used towels or even kitten formula you'd be willing to part with so we can get these babies all grown up and on their way to new homes when they're old enough!
Sound check! This is Chicken π
he is a 1 year old green cheek conure, he is a suncheek color mutation π₯° he's incredibly tolerant and gentle, but sometimes π we get BATTLE CHICKEN π€£ He gets SO much enjoyment out of beating up his toys and telling them what for - turn up the volume for the rarely caught on tape, Chicken yelling π€£
