Adoption Day!


Marigold and Butterfly are officially ours! Cookies for everyone to celebrate! These are the collars they were wearing when we brought them home a little over six weeks ago. Look how tiny!


And now look how big!


Four months old on Friday, and four pounds each. Next big adventure: their first road trip to Texas to Grandma's house for Christmas. Y'all. We are doing a road trip with two 4-month-old kittens. Keep us in your prayers!


First Christmas--ready for Santa!

      Fostering to adopt. The shelter lets us take them home but doesn't release them to us before they're spayed. Relieves pressure on the shelter, allows the kittens to get more care, and ensures they get spayed.

    Congratulations on making it official. They're so darned cute and getting so big. We take our cat to Tahoe with us, it's about a 3 1/2 hour drive. We take his cat box with us and put it in the back of the van. Half way there we stop, open his cage and let him use the box, have a bite to eat and drink and let him stretch his legs walking around the van for about 20 minutes and then continue the rest of the way.

    Merry Christmas: I just want to cuddle with these beauties, they are adorable, Blondie the Cat sends hugs and kiss's to both of them.
    The first photo shows how much they love you and their new home.
    Have a safe trip to Texas, I hope they do well in travels.
