Foster Kittens - Cuteness Warning! Updated 6/4/07 With More Pics!

[LuckyNumber7]

Hi Catmandu! After we get him, we're going to evaluate his personality for a few days....but I was just thinking, that maybe we could name him Cheddar Jack (like CHeddar Jack cheese) and call him CJ for short?

What do you guys think of that idea??

CultureJunky, I can't even tell you how lucky I am to have my fiance here to keep me in check. If he wasn't here, I would have kept pretty much every foster dog we've had thus far, and I'd be keeping all of these kittens, too. I'd wind up like one of those crazy people you read about on the news with 47 dogs and 89 cats living in a 1 room house lol!

Really though, I'm just glad we're able to help in some way....hopefully they all find awesome homes quickly and can live happily ever after!

All of your soon to be new fosters are just too cute!!!! I'm in love with Romeo too and I bet it's going to be very hard for you to let all of these cutie pies go to other homes. I wouldn't be surprised if you decided to keep a couple of them permanently.


It's kind of hard to tell from this picture but he looks like either a cream or possibly a buff color. He's gorgeous.

[LuckyNumber7]

I would guess that to be his color as well. It was the hardest thing in the world, to go through this website with my friend's list of cats on it, and pick 5 of them to foster - they're all freaking ADORABLE! I wanted to have a fairly even number of male and females though, so that if people had a preference as to the sex of their kitten, I had both available. Since I know how much all of you like pictures, here are the rest of them!!

I'm including some pictures of the itty bitty babies...who probably aren't AS itty bitty anymore, since these pictures are from almost a month ago. My friend's dog, a yellow lab, plays "mother" to some of the youngest kittens, and protects them from the other dogs in the house who try to get too close. I love the pictures of the lab with the dogs. I think part of the reason that Commie clicked so well with our family is because he instantly loved our yellow lab Lucy.

There are a LOT of pictures, so I'll probably have to make another post after this one!

First, the older ones, who are up for adoption.

Here are some of the babies she has at her house. and some with her dog with the kitties, which I just love!!!

Wow! There is just too much KITTEN CUTENESS in this thread!
All the kittens are adorable, that is so great that you are going to foster them.
The pictures of the dog with the kittens are just so sweet.
I love Cheddar, I think you should keep that name for him.

[LuckyNumber7]

I'm torn now - I just got an email from a guy saying that today him and his workers found a mother cat and 3 kittens that appear to be about 3-4 weeks old in the WALL Of their shop. I guess I'll take them and foster them, too - unless someone else does....I don't want them getting hurt or anything

[krazyaboutkatz]

Thanks for sharing pictures of some of the other kittens too. They sure are adorable. If you have the room then go ahead and foster the mom with 3 kittens too. I also forgot to mention that I love the name Cheddar.

[LuckyNumber7]

I like the name too.....I just wish we could think of a name that would somehow memorialize our Commodus I don't know how, or what....but something that would sometimes make me think of the memories we have of him fondly, and cherish the ones that we now get to make with our new family member. I hope that makes some sense

[CultureJunky]

Oh Oh Oh Oh tiny iddle widdle babies!!! Oh I'm nearly having a heart attack here from the gorgeousness of them all. That woman is a saint for taking in these helpless little bundles when they need someone.

[jennielynn1970]

OMG!!! They are all just tooo precious!! This is the reason I foster the older cats, because if I fostered babies, they would NEVER EVER leave!!! I'd just be way too attached! Not that I'm not attached to my older guys, but look at those little bitty faces!!! That little Casey just stole my heart!!! She would fit right in with my other dilute tortie and calico girls!

You are doing such a wonderful thing, and if they need to stop in PA at all for a break, they are more than welcome to stop at my house!! Can't guarantee that they will all make it to your place however!! I'll have to kitten-nap a few of them!

[LuckyNumber7]

If you wanted to adopt one, we could totally arrange to get them to you in PA

The only reason I foster kittens and not older cats is because older cats tend to get hissy and scratchy with dogs sometimes if they haven't always been around them. This makes it easier, knowing everyone will get along.

I got some pictures of Cheddar this morning!!

Some are old ones, but some are new This little boy needs his eyes cleaned out!! It's ok though....I'll do it when he gets here

He's the orange one!










Not the best pics, but stuff to look at until the 13th!

What's with that one wee guy - his backside and legs seem to be red and inflamed?

[LuckyNumber7]

I initially didn't post this one, because I really thought it was a 1/2 naked girl holding Cheddar over her boob. Turns out it's her son, and he has a towel around his waist. I laughed for about 1/2 hour after learning that.

[LuckyNumber7]

Do you mean this guy?

I think he was just dirty. I know for a fact that none of the kittens that they've gotten there have wound up sick, and they amazingly haven't wound up losing ONE of them, except to that accident with the recliner
