Busy times! Lots of kittens. Between the kitties and the CH cats, we sure are doing the kitten shuffle here! Lots of action going on that we need to be careful when we walk!
We have a new mama and 3 gorgeous kittens. Their birthdates are 9/14, which makes them 5 weeks old. Mama (calico/tiger) is Shiloah. Long hair gold, male is Sunny. Long hair gold and white, male is Sadler. Short hair, calico/white, female is Sasha. These kittens are in and out of their pen all day long--just bouncing all over the place! They are still in the back Thumper's Room.
We also have another new adult cat. Friends of FFRC found him and he is just gorgeous. He's a male, very long black/white fur and looks alot like Snoopers. Except he has the Octavia dot on the chin--very distinctive. His name is Faraday.
Our little sweetie Pasha is doing awesome. She is already running and playing and climbing. It's unbelievable her energy level. She chirps just by looking at her!
We have a few cats on hold. Venus will be going to Tennessee with a family who is thrilled to have her. She'll still be with us for another week or two. Camilla and Sasha will be going to Courtney, our calico mama. Yes, she loves calicos and has the space/finances/love to give her calico family! I'm thrilled for her and her cats! She'll be moving the first of December so the transportation will be right after that. Ganache is also on hold--he will be going to his new Minnesota home with WarpedConnie and Joe! So happy for Ganache. Viola will be leaving this weekend and will go in the home where Theo went to.
We also have several other families that are seriously looking at a few of our kittens. More on this later. This past Sunday, Sara went to her new home and then on Monday, Togo went to his new home. Lots of changes starting to happen!
We had BOXES last night and I'm so very grateful for this help.

Markie, Zarkey and Barky are doing much better. The diarrhea is getting better. Another bath is being done on them again today! They will go into June's Room now so they have more room to romp.
Three days ago, all the cats and kittens received their injection for tapeworms. This will now be a new protocol for all incoming cats--a tapeworm medication whether they have fleas or not. There's only 2 ways of getting tapeworms. One is by having fleas, the other is by eating rodents. Results are not completely in yet for Minto. We will put together a full picture of the findings when we have all the info.
Yep--this is our silly Whoebe!
