More kittens...


My co-worker brought 4 new-born kittens to work yesterday, hoping to find someone that could help them. They were born the previous night. Unfortunately, their loving mother developed a bad case of mastitis and could not nurse them because of the antibiotics that the veterinarian had to prescribe. As you can see, their owner was trying to bottle feed them, but it wasn't going well - they wanted their mama! I quickly made a phone call to my friend whose cat just had kittens last week and asked if we could try to see if she might adopt some more babies. And she did!! I was so very happy to be able to help these little cuties!! I'm still working on the husband, but he's standing firm. Wait 'til you see the photo that I'm posting tomorrow - he took it to further prove his point...

Just great you found a foster cat. It's always best and easiest. Look forward to hearing how they are doing.

I have a friend that grew up in Oxford/West Paris. I love coming to see pictures of your town (and family). Thanks :)

Awww... how could your hubby say no to those cute little babies??? I'm sure he'll relent.
