Kitten Overload!

A pile of kittens. There are four kitten here. Can you see them all?

After our dog Pippin died, she left a big hole in our lives.  We have always had a pet or two in our house since we have been married (34 years).

In August, we were at NL Vegfest in St. John's and the local Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (S.P.C.A.) had a booth.  They were taking applications for people to be foster parents to animals in their care on a temporary basis.  This appealed to us as we did not want to take on a new pet that would be a concern for us when we travel in February and then move to Nova Scotia in the late spring.

We were called by the SPCA last week and asked if we could foster a mother cat and four kittens, which we readily agreed to.

The photos below say it all:

This is the Mom

 

Mom used to hiss at us each morning but now she is friendly
and will rub against us waiting for us to pat her.

Here are the kittens:

First day with us. Coming out of the crate
