The Long and Short of It: Kitten Season

 


After the Harvey Washbangers litter, Americano and Affogato stayed with us for a little under a month. These little caffeinated beverages were a handful, and I admit I was a little relieved when they went to their forever homes. (To be clear, they weren't bad kittens. It's just that some kittens are harder than others to share a bathroom with, and these two 1) didn't believe in personal space and 2) wanted to climb our legs ALL THE TIME which made doing anything in the bathroom something of a challenge.) They were with us long enough - and they were brave enough - to come out into "gen pop," which Popeye greatly enjoyed.










Then this past weekend, we babysat another foster's kittens while they were traveling. The Crackers - Ritz, Cheese-It, Graham, and Triscuit - were timid but otherwise sweet and incredibly easy, as far as fosters go. I know they're going to make wonderful additions to their forever families, so if you're interested in any of them, let me know! (As I'm writing this, Ritz is pre-adopted but the others are still available.)

We'll have kind of a hard time with long-term foster placements this summer because we're in and out so much, but we hope we can continue to have little ones visit us for short periods of time while their long-term fosters travel themselves!
