Elephants Upstairs

In May of 2005, we decided we should try fostering kittens, to ease the pain of the loss of one of our cats. We lost Pepper on a Saturday, and 3 days later, we got a call that there was a litter of 6 orange tabbies that needed a foster home. That was when it all began. The title may make you scratch your head, but I was always amazed at the amount of noise these tiny little kittens can make when they are playing. From the living room, it does indeed sound like we have elephants upstairs.

race for the finish

We are getting close to the finish line with these guys. The weight range is from 2lbs, to 2, 10 oz. Jet is the biggest, and Nadine is the smallest, but they eat like horses, and we are pushing for a return just before Thanksgiving, when I will be heading out of town. I hate to split them up, but if we have some not ready before I head out, I don't want to leave a house sitter here with all 5 of these guys. They are getting big, and 5 kittens can be a bit to clean up after.

In the mean time, they are quite entertaining.
