I got three new kittens today. A little 10 week old cow kitty.



From the back, the cow kitty has a "W" on its head!



And twin 8 week old kittens.



Don't be worried about the cage. These kittens are skittish, and are with me to tame them. So they will start in the cage, then in one room, and soon...freedom into the house!

Aren't they precious?! I'd like to take one of those tabbies home with me!
I have been thinking of getting a third cat for the farm as a mouser. But I think that will be far into the future. Anyway, good luck with those cute kitties! Have fun!

They are so sweet, I just don't think I could do foster care, I wouldn't want to give them up, they look so sweet, but as you can tell by my siggy I really don't think I could do it. But good for you that you are, I wish I could. You have to feel good when you make a difference in there lives

Some are harder to give up than others, thats for sure! But I really do enjoy kittens, and the best way I know of to have lots of kittens is to foster! I'm far to lazy to commit to scooping litterboxes for a pile of cats...so this way I just enjoy them for a while, then send them off.

A friend has found a white kitten where she works, so I'm hoping she can catch it so I can adopt it out, too. And we will try to trap the Momma, to TNR.

I Love my girls the ones that were small when I trapped them, they are the sweetest girls and so well behaved, I love all of mine but I never really had kittens, and dunkin and miniman were small to, I can't afford to find anymore
I would have to be nuts, I never had kittens till these, there over a year now though, it's like entertainment here all the time, I love it because there so funny. And they are spoiled to death, I think of what I went through to get them and I think that's why I Love them so much.

And there aren't enough rescues and fosters in the world, if we had to save every kitty. People like you who save and keep make a big difference, too. As do people who adopt the fosters.

A part of me would like to keep more kitties...like you, but I just don't have it in me to care for so many! Fostering lets me have "too many" sometimes, then just my 4 other times.

They are gorgeous! I should start fostering here. Not sure how the girls would take to it, though. Or the husband, for that matter!

Are your kitties adjusting to the kitten you found? If so, I'll bet they would adjust to fosters, too. I have been fostering for my cats full lives, so while they may not "love" it, they are pretty good at accepting new cats. (Except Sarabi who kept beating them up!
)

Rosiemac, I use the term "twin" in the strictest scientific sense with these boys. Meaning they were found outside a week ago, and I can't tell them apart!

Good luck telling the "twins" apart! I've got two twin tabby brothers outside & I just call them the tabby brothers. I can't tell which is which until I can touch them, their stripes are identical, but one has silky hair & the other coarse hair.

I love the cow kitten. S/He is gorgeous!
