Kay's Kittens

August 24, 2010

Karen says: Karen says: I don't belong to a rescue group, I just foster kitties that seem to come my way. If they are taking kittens to the animal shelter or someone dumps them off at their home, I take them and put out my "Kittens" sign. Not a perfect system but our shelter only adopts out 20% (the rest are put down) so it seems like a better way to me. I hand out cards for our low-cost spay/neuter vet and strongly suggest they get them done. I try to do what I can.

My friend Kay is the owner of a mom-cat, who is just called Momma. She is a semiferal barn cat that came to Kay's house from the farm next door. She doesn't let you pet her but she eats and has her babies in Kay's garage. This three were born last summer and were quite friendly kittens (unlike some of litters). Kay named them Peanut, Sassy, and Sweet Pea. Sweet Pea was adopted by neighbor for her granddaughter and renamed Riley. I rehomed the two boys to new families.

Love this pic! Love to watch kittens play. I hope the people you adopt your kitties to get them altered. So many people don't, that's why the shelters are full.

All the kitties are delightful, but Sweet Pea is unique. I like the names you gave them also!

Interesting colors of the catties. Two orange tabbies and one tortie. Mom has very light grey fur. So happy that all the catties found homes. Thanks for your good work, Karen.

You are such a hero for fostering all those homeless babies and finding them good homes. I hope you are an example to your neighbors. Kay's three are adorable.

Lovely mother - I hope someone manages to catch her one day and has her neutered. In the meantime, good job of caring for the unwanted kitties. Sweet Pea is very cute!
