Kittens!!

Zahed's mum lost more than 10 cats this month. So what used to be almost 20 cats is now only 5. 3 adults and 2 kittens.sigh they were attacked by a mean virus that led them to slow deaths. However there are 2 new really cute kittens.Here they are. and the mummy kittie

Gotcha!

After two weeks of trapping almost every night, I finally got the little bugger! After going to the vet's right after work for a refill on one of Tumbleweed's prescription, I had no time for dinner and headed out trapping instead. I set up the adult trap at 7:30 because this kitten seems spooked by...

Oh, bugger

One of my three 12-week-old foster kittens has vomited a couple of times today. All three have been on metronidazole, an antibiotic, for the last five days, because of diarrhea (suspected to be due to some parasite not killed by their previous deworming). The diarrhea seems to have improved some;...

Kitten update

I haven't been boring you with the results of every night's trapping attempts to get that last kitten of the litter I've been trapping. Suffice to say, if I'd gotten #3, you'd have heard it by now. Last night we got rained out about five minutes before I was going to give up, anyway. The little...

Lincoln Jaunts Over to Us

David and Mollie came to visit us in St. Libory and Grand Island. I took them to Coney Island and the older gentleman serving us was very talkative. We chatted about the picturesque drive from Seward to Grand Island via. Hwy 34. The Coneys and strawberry malt were delicious. At Michael's house,...

help give free kibble for kitties

Play the daily trivia game and, right or wrong, donate twenty pieces of kibble to an animal shelter. There's a link for dogs, too, but the kitties are way behind in the kibble count! Read the story behind the site at moderncat.

Frisky Sunday

Haha people keep saying he looks so sad/pitiful/worried. He's a perma-sad-faced-kitten! Or, to be horrible and corny, the Why So Serious? Kitten Pink tongue! SAD FAAAACE He woke me up at 7am mewling. Mike was in taking his shower, as he worked early today. He (kitten) is still scared. He'll dart...

Little Orphan Orange

Best anniversary present ever. 9 week old, male, orange tabby. YET TO BE NAMED. He has such a sad little face. His eyebrows are droopy so he looks like he's going to cry. How could you not adopt him?? Now I can stop taking pictures of the neighbor's stupid cats! (Who am I kidding, that will never...

Value-added kitten

Not that I'd put this in his adoption writeup, but here's a selling point you don't get with most kittens: Chocolate Chip cleans the hair out of drains! It's true -- he likes to chase corks and toys around the bathtub, and twice now I've looked in the tub and seen him pawing my clumps of red hair...

Friday night trapping: The Frustrating

One more kitten down, one to go. Tonight I got the second kitten of the litter I'm trapping. Had her in less than 15 minutes. I checked with the people who work in this building by phone in the afternoon, and the woman who feeds them told me she hadn't seen the kittens all afternoon. Good sign for...

Back and rocking!

*drumming* I'M BACK V(｀▽´)V Oh yeah! It has been one hell of a two weeks. Really so many things have happened that I still can't believe that are over me. But I must say it feels great to be back on Rockerica, I've really missed writing here. So to tell the story all from the start. Last time...

Plague and Pestilence

That’s me! In the last month I have had a two week long bladder infection; two bouts of food poisoning (or a 24 hour stomach flu that took a 2 day intermission before resuming the show); and now I have a cold. This cold, not even a slight tickle in my throat this morning, manifested around 11:00...

PODCAST!!!!

I've got a podcast, na na-na- na-na nahhhh. *dances around* thepoetspassage.libsyn.com I'm still at home, and I'm still editing last night's audio. I got a sweet surprise and am still reeling from the memory of it. Can't wait.

Overdue Post...

What a terrible blogger I am to not write in almost three weeks!! Not a great way to build traffic or friendships, is it? I need to take a page from Catherine or Shannon and write more! At least I’ll catch you up on what you’ve missed. Connor and Duncan finished their school year, and will be...

Mouse: trapped

Back out trapping tonight and after a real nail-biting time watching the little brown tabby nibble his/her way toward the trap (kittens have such little mouths it takes them so long to eat anything), and then watching him/her go halfway into the trap, then back out, the kitten went back in and...

Sunday night trapping: The Infuriating

Joyce and I went out trapping in the evening. We saw more of the adult cats this time, and set a separate dish of food down way off to one side for two of the most persistent, to keep them away from the kitten trap. The orange/white one poked his/her head out again, but the one we saw most of was...

Meet Cookie

We came back from my parents' house with an extra family member. Her name is Cookie and she is a gray tabby kitten. My mother will someday be known as "That Crazy Cat Lady" because she loves cats and she has a tender place in her heart for homeless ones. What started as the rescue of one cat has...

Sunday morning trapping: The Humbling

Well, after doing so well, catching three kittens in 10 minutes a week and a half ago, this morning, at one of my colonies, two of us were out there to trap three kittens, and after an hour, came up with bupkiss. No resting on laurels here. We did clap eyes on two of them, here's a picture of one of...
