Smoggy's Friends: Cookie, Willow & Digby [3]

November 23, 2015

Catherine says: I began fostering kittens and cats in late 2007 after the death of my beloved Smoggy, and in his honor. After a full first year of fostering, I wasn't sure how soon my services would be needed, but I need not have worried as I got a call on January 1, 2009. Actually, it seems it will be a long time before there is any kind of control over the numbers of kittens that are being born.

Anyhow, I went and picked up three little street kitties. We named them Cookie, Willow, and Digby (the only boy). We think they had it a bit rough out there as they were pretty dirty… but the funniest thing is that we gave each of them a bath and they didn't seem to mind it all -- almost like they were familiar with being bathed -- and they each enjoyed the blowdryer session. They were all very happy little souls and very, very purry. The ideal kittens. :D All three were adopted into loving homes by the second week of February 2009.

Dear Catherine--Your posts always make me purr. The kitties are so cute and I love their names--always creative. The videos are special treats that capture the wobbly-ness of baby kitties.

Digby looks so comfy surrounded by all the little pink piglets, thanks for taking in these adorable babies and finding them forever homes.

Hard to pick just one favourite...they are all too precious for words! Digby looks like one of my cats, Jamie, when he was a kitten so that's why I picked the one I did! Your videos are wonderful too!
