    Okay, call me weak...

    I am now a foster mama to Fawn, the little Maine Coon mix I told you about in my last thread. I went in this morning to schmooze with the kitties. She was the first one I took out. Poor little girl was shaking so badly. Those %$#@ puppies were hurting my ears, so I can imagine what it was doing to her. I went to the front office and asked about fostering her. I filled out an application and BAM...was walking out the door with her in a carrier, a new litterbox, food and litter.

    She's now in my spare bedroom with a window box, bed, tent and radio playing classical music. At least I'll be able to sleep tonight knowing she's in a quiet, peaceful environment.

    I found out that someone abandoned her at the shelter while she was pregnant!!! I hope whoever did this to her rots in hell and SOON!

    I'm going to post pictures of her soon so you can see what she looks like. She is VERY thin and scared to death. Hopefully, in time she will come around.

    Rest In Peace Casey (Bubba Dude) Your paw print will remain on my heart forever. 12/02
    Mollie Rose, you were there for me through good times and in bad, from the beginning.Your passing will leave a hole in my heart.We will be together "One Fine Day". 1994-2009
    MooShoo,you left me too soon.I wasn't ready.Know that you were my soulmate and have left me broken hearted.I loved you like no other. 1999 - 2010See you again "ONE FINE DAY"
    Maya Linn, my heart is broken. The day your beautiful blue eyes went blind was the worst day of my life.I only wish I could've done something.I'll miss your "premium" purr and our little "conversations". 1997-2013 See you again "ONE FINE DAY"

    Somehow I knew that sweet Fawnie girl was going to make it home with you!!!! It's so wonderful for you to give her a home--even if it is temporary--I can't wait to see this little sweetie's picture!!

    Donna, I can't express how happy I am to hear this!!! I feel like celebrating! It must be such a great feeling for you. I know that sweet little Fawn will be spoiled rotten!

    You are an angel!!! Can't wait to hear more and see pics!

    I feel a HUGE sense of relief knowing that she's being well cared for in a quiet environment. Don't get me wrong, I love all animals. But those puppies have SO much engery and everytime someone would open the door, the barking would start. I know I did the right thing. I have told no one except for you guys. It's going to be our little secret .

    I promise I'll post picture soon.

    I'm so happy, you did the right thing. Poor kitty, she must've been very scared, and I bet she's very happy that you took her in.

    Thanks for the confidence and support everyone! She's still under the bed. She's being treated for earmites until May 22nd. Unfortunately, I can't treat it unless she emerges from under the bed!!

    I coaxed her out with a teaser wand and crunchie kitty food. The minute she came out, she started purring!!

    Here are some pictures.
