« Tiggs' Housemates: Cory and CoStretching »

In the Living Room

Permalink 10/22/10 22:31, by Steph Shangraw, Categories: Tiggs

We're bringing Tiggs into the living room in the evening, to relax on the couch between us for two or three hours. She's putting up with having a harness and leash on, just-in-case, and hardly seems to notice it. She's getting more tolerant of the boys, but seems to have an issue with Angel -- female territoriality, I suspect, which I hope will fade once she's spayed. She seems to very much enjoy being curled up in a fuzzy-blanket-nest with the two of us intermittently petting her. Angel sleeps in a chair in easy sight about four feet away, but as long as they don't move, they ignore each other.

These pics are from last night, but could just as easily be of tonight.

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!
