I wanted to meet Kelly's kitties, but not this way!!

What MOFF said! Thank you Gini for taking in Kelly's babies. Their safety is one less thing she's got to worry about!

Stay safe you guys!!!

I'm assuming it's that front guest room??? Gee, for all the "guests" you have in there, that room could write a book.

You say you don't want thank yous but how could we not?? You've been Kelly's lifeline so many times over and we all give you big {{{hugs}}} and thank you for it. For us living so far away, it's comforting to know that she has someone outside the family to rely on.

Looking forward to pictures and an update when Kelly gets back.

Some of the finest of the fine have stayed in that room (and I don't even know all of them) but the vibes alone should sooth a furrowed fur brow and I'm sure it will. You all hang tight and this too shall pass. Gini, you have already passed with flying colors in the PetTalk Gold Star Department

Of course you didn't make this post for thank you's, but you know what, Gini, you deserve them, every one of them, and I know that Kelly will be just as thankful as we all are. Truly, thank you, as you have taken a bit of a burden off of our sweet friend's shoulders, and that deserves some thanks. I don't think one of us has forgotten all that Kelly has dealt with, but we are thankful that she has close friends, physically, like you, to help her in tough times.

Love you both, and all those sweet kitties too.

Logan

That was so sweet of you Gini to do this for Kelly.. I know she is so relieved that the babies are safe.. I would have done the same in a heart beat..

**momoffuzzyfaces** · 09-29-2005, 02:05 PM

Could you give them some catnip? That always makes my babies feel better!

**gini** · 09-29-2005, 02:34 PM

Kelly and her Mom were sweet enough to invite me to lunch, but I have work to do - people like their payroll on time!

I went into the kitty room to see how everyone is doing and Micah is sooo adorable and friendly. You should see the black pants I am wearing. Great choice - lower third of the pants legs are now solid fawn color!!

Noah still has a lot to say - but he couldn't be bothered to get up - just laid there and hissed at me.

Did she bring five cats? I only see two......................I am certain that three of them are firmly attached to the underside of the sofa.

Kelly has information about her Dr.'s visit, but I think that is for her to share................I will just say that it is positive and a step in the right direction.

Rascal, Annie and Emma are all sound asleep on my bed. Thank goodness for solid doors in an old house - I still don't think they know we have visitors.

whew... thanks for the update, I'll go look for Kelly's post.

p.s. Don't forget to change your pants before serving dinner or saying "good evening" to your kids

**Laura's Babies** · 09-29-2005, 02:46 PM

My heart goes out to Kelly! I know what it is like to face the possiability of loosing your home and everything you own.... But you can deal with that as long as you know your babies are alright and to have someone step up and take them in where they will be safe is a God Send!! ANY one of us would have jumped at the chance to take them in for as long as needed, it just happened that YOU were in the right place to be able to do it. You are a God Send for her and her babies. Please keep us posted on her house/fire.

Lut, they aren't in carriers at my home - but if she takes them back to her Mom's house - they may have to stay in the carriers until the fire danger is gone.

Of course not, Gini, I was referring to her Mom's house

**sandragonfly** · 09-29-2005, 03:53 PM

yikes.. hope everything will be okay. oh that's so california! fire, fire & fires..

gini, why can't cats stay over yours for the night to be sure? they go to mother's, being in carriers..for how long?

hope they and everyone's okay until the fire's gone..

**gini** · 09-29-2005, 04:11 PM

Oh, I have the best news. Kelly and her Mom came back after their lunch and when Kelly opened the door to the kitty's guest room - there all five of them were.

They were lined up in a row - they had little picket signs that they had made that said:

WE DON'T WANT TO GO HOME WHERE IT IS HOT AND SMOKEY.........WE WANT TO STAY HERE AT GINI'S.

Now how could we turn that down? So they will be staying with me until Saturday. Yippee!!

**orangemm** · 09-29-2005, 04:21 PM

What an angel you have been to Kelly and her kitties, Gini. Such an unselfish and caring thing to do!

It must be harrowing for Kelly and the gang; her for worrying about them, and the stress the upheaval has on them because you can't EXPLAIN to a cat that what you're doing is temporary and for their own good!

It has to be such a relief to her to have you as a friend.

Bless you!

**momoffuzzyfaces** · 09-29-2005, 04:21 PM

Smart little buggers aren't they??

I know they will be lots more comfy with you than caged up in tiny carriers for days. After all, they need to potty some time!
