Joy, the kitten

Meet Joy! She came in with 8 siblings! Two did not make it, but the rest are all growing and thriving, while she eats constantly but is not putting on weight. She has been dewormed multiple times. I don't like feeling those tiny bones, so we may be headed to the vet. But she is a delight! She loves to snuggle and she will attack ANY food you happen to have. She's got a fun personality and brings us lots of joy! I love her so much!

Momma Bella

These sweet babies came in with momma cat, Bella. They had 6 more siblings who were already given away before I could get them. And they had 3 more who were too tiny to survive. 13 babies in one litter. Bella is a super mom! These guys are just 6 weeks old. They are healthy and beautiful! Bella is a real angel. She is still very young and previous to her last home, lived with people who fought dogs, who left her behind when they moved. As you can see from her photo,  she lost her foot to a dog attack and it will need some medical care. We are getting medical lined up for her. She does okay getting around though. We love her and her babies so much!

Absolutely true

 

Beautiful Music

Got to watch Annalina play in her last Madison Christmas Concert tonight. The band played, the choirs sang, then they all joined the orchestra for a final song. It was pretty impressive, but bittersweet. She's been playing the violin for 8 years! I don't want her to grow up. But she did anyway.

Birthday Fun

 Oh yeah, this mom's still got it! New cat shoes for Annalina's birthday! And she loves them!!

Meaningful to me

 

Birthday Tradition

We always go to Sushi Time for the All You Can Eat Sushi Feast on birthdays.  Thanks for being born Annalina, so we could go every December!   

Abandoned Cats

This is awful. I wish I could say this is the first time we have experienced this. Sometimes it's a box of kittens, sometimes left overnight, sometimes they don't make it because we find them too late. We are not funded by the government.  This is not a paid gig. We accept donations and we spend way more of our own money than is logical. Because we love these kitties, each one. We do have to set limits and it kills us to not be able to accept them all. What would be so wonderful? A community who loves and supports these guys too.
