Queenie is so sweet. She is playing with lots of the toys. She's fun to watch. We had an adoption yesterday--Merci! Our volunteer Sigrid adopted her. She fell in love with Merci long ago, and decided it was time to bring her home. The picture on fb of her is so pretty, she looks happy. It's wonderful when we can get adults adopted into great homes.
Our 3 newest baby kitties arrived. These are the ones from Pam, a volunteer. The mama is feral (a true feral) and will be spayed today. The kitties are about 4 weeks old. The reason we decided to go ahead and take them from mama, is so these 3 kittens have that opportunity to grow as socialized kittens instead of wild or scared kitties. Pam is keeping the mama on her property and will be well taken care of. The mama cat knows Pam and should adjust just fine. The kitties are 1 boy and 2 girls. Their names are "sweet" names: Gelato (male) and Cannoli and Tiramisu (pronounced tear a mi sue). These 3 babies are absolutely cute--long hair, various designs of black/whites.

That was a fun evening and so appreciated! It always amazes me the different items that come in. The cats and I say a big thanks to you all.
I saw a video that was posted of Promise and Jacen--they both look so happy. Promise was grooming Jacen and he sure was enjoying it! I've gotten another call about Cosimo--he's doing just fine! I also talked to the lady who took Missy and Tweedy and all is fine there. They are adjusting nicely into this quieter home. Both are more receptive to being petted and held. They are eating good and sleeping on a quilt that's on the couch. She has officially adopted them. She also asked about MiMi and Dapa--hmmmm. We'll see what happens!
We better get our rest in now, before the kitties start bothering us!
