More Cat Adoptions!

And our Happy was adopted on Sunday!  Yay!

Within seconds, we got our new fosters.  Someone dumped a mom and 3 kittens at a church.  The mom is in a cage, I never even saw her, someone kept on of the kittens, and we have 2.




Magellan and Churchill. 
Magellan wants to explore everything and Churchill has a wider face, bigger kitten.  When he gets scared, he runs to the safety of his food bowl for a bite of courage.

Cat Adoptions!

Yay!
Smokey and Mao have been adopted!  They spent over a year in a cage, waiting.  Finally a chick dumped her boyfriend who was allergic and took them both.
Yay!  I gave them a cage break a few months ago and just loved Smokey.  I called him my Little Bird because he chirps instead of meowing.  I'd of had them over more often but Mao is a terror around my cats.  Attacks them.  And then we've had kittens nonstop.
Speaking of, still have, "Lisa."  I call her Happy, because she really is, all the time, the happiest cat ever.  Ok, not in the cage on weekends to be adopted.  She fiercely bites and hisses because she's found HER home, dammit, LOL


Outside, we're TNRing the stray cats in our area.  Got 2 females already fixed and released and caught 1 today.  I know there's 1 more for sure, but have no idea how many are around.  A lot get killed but the group has steadily been growing since we moved in.  Went from seeing a cat once in a while to at least 4, for sure, and sightings of new cats every so often.  I think I know who the father of the cats is, but I've only seen him one time, months ago, but they all look like him.

Pepcid AC for Cats


I learned something this week.  Cats can have Pepcid AC (or the generic).  Not the Max Strength, not the Complete.  Just the regular.  And it's been common knowledge since AT LEAST 2006!  Dammmmmit!
Ceilidh is a pukey cat.  She's had the runs for probably 10 years and guess what!  Cured with grain-free cat food!  But it's increased her puking to several times a day.  All day and all night, be careful where you sit and where you walk.  So what does our vet friend suggest?  Pepcid AC.  Works like a charm!  Half a pill in the morning and she's just fine!  
No one could of mentioned this all the times she's been at the vet for her check-up?  All I ever got was, "Some cats puke a lot."

So.
Went to Disney tonight for the Osbourne Lights at Hollywood Studios.  But went to Epcot to eat.

One day I'm going to wear a pedometer and figure out how much walking we do.  Park near Epcot, walk over, walk around and eat (Japan today), walk to front of park, catch bus to the studios, walk around bored (it's a lousy park, really) and starve because there's no food stands and all the restaurants are booked solid, wait for lights and then---

   
 









...then walk back out of the park, bus back to Epcot, walk around, eat at The Land, walk out the back entrance, walk around the lagoon to a hotel parking lot.  
Feel like miles and miles.

Catterina Adopted Today!

Momma kitty has been adopted!  Whew!  That's a load off my mind.  She is a super smart cat and shouldn't have to live in a cage.
Our latest fosters:



These are both ferals from a colony but are sweeeeeeeeet, sweet girls!  You'd never know they were fosters.  All they want to do is sit on your lap and purr.  Still kittens but not babies.

All Adopted

Today the final 2 brothers were adopted and Momma is now alone in a cage and will remain there until she is adopted.  Some of that cats from last year are still in cages so this is not a happy thing. 
I feel so bad for her because she LOVED those babies.  She snuggled them and held them and talked to them and nursed them constantly.  Such a doting momma.  And now all she knows is that her babies are gone.
I mean, it's better than having them eaten in front of her in the wild but, it's sad.
