Another one??

[jenluckenbach]

OK, I think I've gone over the edge now. The man who caught Betty Boop and Sweet Polly Purebred, just brought me a 3rd kitten (with 2 still uncaptured). It is a male who is Betty's twin. He was not in my house but a moment when he layed his little teeth into the palm of my hand. :eek: AND would not let go! :eek: I've never had to tame a wild one, wish me a LOT of luck!!! Should I call him Dick Tracy?

Dick Tracy - like the name.

He sounds like a handful. I wish you the best of luck!! You are a wonderful person to help these kitties Jen!

jenluckenbach, you amaze me with all of the love you're giving to these furballs! i know it has to be tons of work, and you seem to just take it in stride. i can't wait to see pics of these new guys!

I have lost count now! I bet you have too! http://petoftheday.com/talk/images/our_smilies/smile.gif I say who cares! Take as many as you can handle!
You are going to have a handful with this last one. Do you know if the other two are as wild as this little one? Are they all related? Are they all kittens? Sorry if I missed a post somewhere that explained all this. I'm just wondering where this guy is coming up with all these kitties. I'm glad he is catching them and even though I know you are cat rich you are still willing to take them in. I don't think your head will be able to hold up the crown that waits for you.
I hate to be a pain but we can't wait for pictures!!http://petoftheday.com/talk/images/our_smilies/biggrin.gif Although, I can't imagine how you find time to take pictures!!

Oh my Jen! I'm so glad you didn't turn him away though. :) I say as long as they are adorable kittens, keep 'em coming - and don't get me wrong because when the time comes I'll probably be adopting an adult cat, but for you, who really can't "afford" (in space, time and behavioral issues, not meaning money here) to end up keeping anymore, and the chances are more likely that the kittens will be adopted out, I say as long as they're kittens, keep 'em coming! :D

The only other option is to see if someone else at the shelter can help with fostering the kits, but I hate to think where they might end up if you don't take them - and I'm sure that's partly what's driving your acceptance of them too.

You've got such a big heart, and you're just the best for helping all these poor souls. :)

Just please, please, please remember, like others here have learned the hard way (Donna, Kim, etc.) you can't save them all and you need to know when you've reached your limit, and then you really do need to either say no or find help.

Good luck with this new feisty guy! Love the name Dick Tracy. :D

Jen,

PLEASE!!! Get your hand checked out. Both Kimmy and I can attest to how infectious a cat bite can be! Don't take any chances. Especially since the kitten is a stray.

Ok, wait a minute Jen, I know you said he looks just like Betty Boop, but you're pulling one on us here and showing the same pic, right? ;) :D

Just kidding of course. ;) I can't believe how much they look alike! You're going to have to get his and hers collars to tell them apart. :D

All three of these babies are just precious, and I'm so glad you were able to take them in. Keep us updated on them please. :D

Oh Dick Tracey is gorgeous! He looks a right grump though hehehe. Best of luck Jen, I would get that bite checked out. I don't know about where you live but in Australia we have a disease called Cat Scratch fever that most vets have to be immunised against. Its nasty and can cause all kinds of problems.

Oh My he is absolutely adorable.
How is your hand Jen?
