New Foster Babies!

Permalink 06/22/09 22:18, by Steph Shangraw, Categories: SCP

So. I don't even have time and energy lately to keep up with posting Cory pics and videos. What do I do?

I bring home 4 new foster kittens, of course. Yes, four. They were dropped off at the Humane Society as "strays". Strays that understand food bowls and are accustomed to being handled... draw your own conclusions. They're approximately 4 weeks old, and I'm still trying to determine exactly how weaned (or not) they are -- they do nibble Royal Canin Babycat kibble, but three of four also suckled on a bottle of KMR quite eagerly, and they haven't eaten much kibble.

They're also very beautiful. Two are silver tabbies, both girls. Two are dark graphite-gray tabbies. When they're all together, the colours flow into each other and you could never doubt they're littermates.

Here are a trio of pics, and a couple of videos, all by Sean (when he uploads videos, he puts his perspective on events there, check it out!).

Oh, and if anyone comes across my common sense (you'll know it, it hasn't been used much), could you please return it? Kthxbye.

Follow up:

The lives of various fostered kittens and cats: Eva, born March 15 and abandoned the next day; Cory, orphaned at two weeks in mid-April and rejected by a foster-momcat April 17; Kate, Ryu, Zephyr, and Aurora, who were surrendered as "strays" on June 22 at roughly 4 weeks old; the "Sneezies", 6 3-month-old kittens who developed a respiratory infection; Beauty, Belinda, and Benny, a brave momcat and her two kittens; Tiggs, a very young mom.

Eva has gone to her forever home, and her family will continue to give us updates here. Cory is staying permanently with us. Kate, Zephyr, Ryu, and Aurora were all quickly adopted. Gambit and Stella have crossed the Rainbow Bridge, but Boomer, Archie, the black twins, and Beauty have all been adopted; Benny was, I believe, adopted by his other foster family

Please support your local shelter and rescue organizations so they can continue rescuing babies (just like these ones!) and adult animals who need assistance! Many shelters are in need of donations of supplies (ask for a wish list) and time (at a wide range of jobs) just as much as financial help. Rescue organizations have a wide variety of things they can use help with, contact yours and ask.
If you're looking for a pet, please adopt one that needs you!
