Do these little faces look familiar?
That’s Churro (formerly Pumpernickel) and Crouton, and I am pleased to see that they’re continuing their extensive training as naptime companions – and doing very well at it! They are now on Instagram – check them out at @CrumbsInColorado.
I just noticed that Instagram offers an embed option (I may have noticed that in the past, but it seems like all new information to me right now) – so y’all tell me this: can you see the picture below? If everyone can see embedded images, I might have to start a regular social media embedded post on former fosters so that those not on social media can see them without me having to download pictures, watermark them, and upload them (in other words, it’d be a lot easier for me).

Babka and Ciabatta love to hang out in Charlie’s bed (one of Charlie’s many beds.)
And they like to tussle there, too!
Pita hanging out with Uncle Newt.
They certainly do like that stuff.

We have a lights-on, no-one-home situation going on here with Bolt.
Lollygag, coming out of the tunnel scratcher, certainly looks like she’s seen some things.
“Look, mama! I gots all my feet in the air!”
“Yep, you sure do, Skip.”
Skitter’s got such a serious little face.

Well, make yourself at home, Rocco.
Looks like my car is the comfy one.

Posted on social media (Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/Tumblr) yesterday.
I’m not sure I expected Bolt (left) and Dillydally to be the first kittens to eat mama’s food, but they were going to town this morning!
“Lady. Do you MIND?” (Ciabatta (back) and Babka)

Throw back Thursday: In 2017 we fostered this little orange floofball named Andouille (and his siblings: Beignet, Praline and Roux, and their mother Nola). One day, when Andouille (and his siblings) were 18 days old, Andouille marched on over to his mother’s plate of canned food and started eating. People on the internet acted like I had tied Andouille down and was force feeding him. “But he’s a BABY he shouldn’t be eating SOLID FOOD, what are you doing, he’ll diiiiiiiie.” etc.
Somehow, despite the dire predictions, Andouille survived. He was adopted with his sister Beignet (they are now Andre and Bella), and they are gorgeous floofy cats, who you can see on Facebook.
We’re gonna need a bigger boat (whale) before long.

The kittens are learning how to play – and Mosey discovers the track toy!

Yes! I can see the IG “embed.”
I can see the Instragram embed! It looks cool, definitely could be used. I can scroll the images and they are high quality. Great to see them doing well in their new home! And great to see your kittens eating solids, growing so faaaast. Everyone looks adorable as usual.
Yes, I can see the Instagram post here–in Feedly, it just shows as “view this post on Instagram” but that’s fine, I have no problem clicking through, if it makes things easier for you. The photos tend to be worth it!
The instagram worked great. Thanks so much for all you do!
I can see it too. It shows up just like the other photos, I don’t have to tap or scroll or go over to instagram. Nice!
Everything came through great today! Good pics and nice to see everyone doing well.
I can see the link, but I have to select it and go to insta to see the pics.
The embedded image worked for me, and as someone who is not on social media I appreciate every little snippet and Crumb I can get. That former foster social media embedded post sounds like a great idea to me! It’s always such a treat to see updates.
I appreciate “every little snippet and Crumb”, too! Lol 🙂
Yes, I can see the IG pics, thanks.
“People on the Internet” act like anything that doesn’t match their expectations and preconceived notions is EEEEEEEEVIL and must be ERADICATED FOR THE SAKE OF DEMOCRACY. It makes me understand Winston Churchill’s comment about a five-minute conversation with the average voter.
Can see the embedded pictures, >^!^<
Thank you
I’m on Instagram but can’t be bothered seeing as I spend enough time on Facebook!
The Crumbs pictures work perfectly, I hadn’t to leave this webpage and they’re fab! Fantastically settled almost immediately.
The remaining Crumbs are living the best lives in cat tree and Churro heaven
The hopalongs are steadily advancing and beautiful Meander remains calm and wonderful.
Andouilli is so adorable. I wasn’t following you then. We have a ginger rescue cat that is food obsessed. I have heard that gingers have a tendency to be like that. We bought an automatic feeder so that he has small meals throughout the day. Before he would gorge his food and then throw up. I think you are amazing and LOVE your posts!
Yes I can see the I*gram embed!
And you’d better believe that I followed that account right quick, too! 🙂
The imbedded IG stuff looks good, hurray and thanks for embedding for us. I love to see the former foster faces❤️
I can see the Instagram posts! I’m on Firefox on a Mac.
So many cute kittens!!!
Yup, the embed works, I didn’t have to tap or leave FB. Good job!
