    This might work out....

    Ok, so we all know I'm a big ol' foster failure. This time I've been doubly bad at fostering.

    It seems like the end result of this year's fostering attempt will end like this:
    My daughter taking Mikey (which we already knew)
    My daughter taking Mystic too (because he and Mikey are incredibly bonded)
    and me keeping Trixie. (oh yeah, you all knew it!)


    You see.... they both had adoption apps on them this week. I was EXCITED. The people were AWESOME. But they backed out for some reason. And I felt a huge sense of relief.

    I mean, how can I let this face go anywhere?


    I go between thinking she's the prettiest kitten EVER, to thinking she's not as pretty as some of the brown tabbies in the rescue. Seriously.... I think my major indecision about adopting her comes from the fact that she's NOT a brown tabby. Will someone please come to my house and hit me over the head over THAT one?


    And I can't express how excited I am at the idea that her blackie brother might have a great home with my daughter... and that I might get to se him grow up into a sleek black cat

    Sure, I'll come hit you over the head and then steal Trixie. I think her and Paizly would be great together. hee hee (kidding of course)

    I'm so excited to hear they are all three staying with you guys. And this is why I can't foster.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    This is excellent news for the babies. But I'm concerned about the apparent lack of available toys for Mystic. Poor little guy has to play with a brick.

    Actually you NEED some variety in that house. And Harry really NEEDS another kitty splashed with white.

    Thats so funny about the brick.
    But our Ctas do make thier own toys and will sometimes ignore the ones that you buy and think are so coool!!!!
    And Trixie really does have a lot of HH Lady Edwina Roses Coloring, but that means you have to adopt a Baby Juke : Joint Joseph!!!

    What's wrong with a brick. Our CREW plays with any thing thats not nailed down. If they realy want it nailing does not help.

    Technically, that is not a brick but a door stop! It keeps the door open and Mystic was simply making sure it was heavy-duty enough to do the job. I know the door also is in bad need of a pint job. I have had a gallon of red paint sitting in the bedroom since thois past fall..... and spilled it a couple days ago. One corner of the bedroom has a HUGE Deep Red paint spill. I didn't even try to rub it clean -- too much paint. Oops.

    We just found a monkey in the works for Heather adopting Mikey..... they said he must be declawed. What do we do now? There's no way we will declaw the boys! NONE! And Mikey is just like Pouncer in regards to trimming his nails -- he wants nothing to do with it. I'm hoping to get his nails down low like I used to do with Harry. Maybe if the nail is cut down to the nail bed, they'll approve him. Maybe?

    Boy can we ever relate!! That's why I cannot foster nor bring anymore home! I can see why you failed!
    Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers

    Okay, just as soon as Soncat is ready, I'm coming straight over there to bop you one right over the head. While I take care of business, Soncat will put Trixie into his pocket and sneak her out. We don't want that sweet little baby to witness anything that might upset her.

    Beware and be warned!
