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.

looking good

Looks like everyone is doing well here at itty bitty central. Finally, finally, Beulah has broken the 2lb mark! She is back to her 100% normal self, playing rough with the other two, and not quite as interested in being held, but still likes to howl for attention.

The ban on new cats should be removed at the shelter, and they will be receiving cats again, but because of Beulah's week of no real weight gain, these guys will be with me for another week I suspect. I doubt she will gain 8 oz. by Monday, but you never know!

In the mean time, they will pass the time away running the hallway, and just being kittens.
