This is our newest Mom cat, Duchess. She is such a sweet cat and a great mom cat. She was living on a farm, where she was an outside cat, she has adapted so well to being in a home and she is so friendly, that we are going to try to place her when she is done raising her kittens.


This is our little Lady. She is a cute little girl and very friendly, Duchess has done a great job teaching her kittens that humans are good. Lady is the only girl in this litter, so she gets some special attention. Lady watches her brothers, before jumping into anything…smart girl!


Baron is the little grey boy of the litter. He is a little roly poly, he is very friendly and loves to be held and cuddled. He is a quiet kitten, but lately we have found that he and his siblings actually are crying to be picked up. They follow my Eldest around until she picks them up!


last but certainly not least…
we have Count, aka Vladamir. Eldest had to name one kitten Vladamir, so this one was the one she chose. Vlad is the first to do everything. He was the first to see, the first to follow mom, the first to try new food (though he doesnt quiet want to eat it full time yet) He is usually the first to come out when a human walks into the room. He is a smart kitten and definitely going places.

The first of the kittens are here! They will be ready for their new home in a couple weeks. Bonnie is the little calico, quite playful. She plays at full speed then just falls down and takes a nap with her brother

Clyde is the little grey and white kitten. He loves to ambush his sister, and nap on his back with all four feet in the air. Like most of the little boy kittens I foster, he loves to lay on his back and get his tummy rubbed.

Most of all, I love to watch the kittens play. They are so sweet and loving, and of course adorable.

Blade was a beautiful medium hair Russian Blue. Such a smart cat, he knew what he wanted and didn’t let anything stand in his way…not even the basement door. I will remember him, for so many reasons. He was a beautiful boy, loved to talk, loved attention, but very reserved. He would watch things happen before he joined in. Blade was adopted about 2 months ago but about a week ago, he became ill, and was not able to pull through.

Blade, I hope that you have found some of your kitty friends, your humans miss you, and we cant wait for the time we get to play with you again.

Rainbow Bridge

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together….

I was asked recently, why I have been working on the same blanket for so long.

Well, the answer is…Bonnie

I have a difficult time keeping her from playing with the yarn. I decided that I would try to crochet tonight, Bonnie was sleeping on my computer…but the moment the bag showed up, she woke up and I was able to get this picture.

Bonnie has brought more than her fair share of entertainment to this holiday season. Watching her investigate the new smells and new “play toys” on the tree, has brought alot of excitement.

And she always looks so innocent!

My kitten spends more time on my computer than I do.

…for why I accomplished nothing last night.

Well, I couldnt disturb Bonnie.
(and she did a great job of keeping my foot warm)

I know that this is my site and it is totally up to me to post or not to post…so why is it that when I visit I feel guilty that I havent posted?

Oh well. Lots has been happening here…

my kittens have grown and three have gone to new homes. I have pictures…the first picture is from when they were about 6 weeks and the second picture is from last week, at about 12 weeks. Reily and Sheridan are still here, but I expect that they will have a new home soon.

The only kitten I dont have another picture of is Rowan, who was adopted at about 8 weeks old. He is doing well in his new home. Mom cat is doing well, she is now at the shelter and hopefully she will be adopted out soon. She did such a good job with her kittens and she deserves a good home.
