I just wanted to thank you and the other people on this blog for all the information and good tidbits that I’ve gotten from you in the years that I’ve been reading. I got a kitten that I judge to be about six weeks old dumped on me by a panicked friend who saved him from another lady in their complex who was going to take him to a shelter. Thanks to you guys, I had a good idea of what to do and what his needs were, and he’s bouncing around like a pudgy little champ and left me a perfect Tootsie roll in the litterbox this morning.
I might be sucked into this fostering thing yet….
And he’s got fleas. *sigh* Nothing is perfect, but isolating him in the bathroom has its benefits. At least it’s just the bathroom I have to scrub down. The good news that he is FeLeuk and FIV negative. If anyone knows of a foster program that can find this kitten a placement with other kittens, let me know.
Edited to add: warriorinside is in the Baltimore/Washington area but is willing to drive to meet people within reason.
Here are a couple of pictures of the little muffinhead.
What a CUTIE!

The kittens are 11 weeks old today! I didn’t take progress pictures of them this week, either, because we’ve had a busy few days. Is it really only Wednesday? I will definitely have their 12 week pictures up next week.
Aurora finds me puzzling.
Playing peekaboo with Hubble.
“What doon, lady?”
At least now that they have the run of the upstairs, Mercury can nurse her kittens in COMFORT (ie: on Fred’s bed.)
They’re multi-taskers, nursing while keeping an eye on me.
Aurora, still trying to figure me out.
Phoenix, keeping an eye on me.
No blue left in those eyes!
