........................A Blog, in honour of Yoko.
The Crazy Cat Lady
- kittykye
- People have always dubbed me the "crazy cat lady". Since I was a young girl, I've been fascinated with anything cat related. I've always had one or many cats in my life since the day I was born. I've been a collector of cat paraphernalia, a foster-mom for the OSPCA & PetSave facilities, and just a cat lover all around. Even though I'm certain there are crazier cat ladies out there than me, I always enjoyed the nickname, so I felt it was a perfect fit for this blog.
About Me
I'm from a small town in Northern Ontario. My little family and I have recently packed up our whole life and moved to Canada's capital city.
In mid-2009, I started this blog to post pictures of my Tortoise-shell Tonkinese cat, Yoko. It eventually morphed into a foster blog of all the kittens/cats that I took in through the shelters. Once I became pregnant and had my son in 2011, all fostering came to a halt.
Then just months before our big move, at almost 18 years old, Yoko passed over to rainbow bridge. I was so devastated and lost when she passed away. She was my little baby. She is, and always will be, missed so very much.
Months after our move, things settled down, and I felt very lonely without a feline in the house. So we decided to seek out a kitty. After some searching, I fell in love with a sweet tuxie kitten, who we named Trinity. It was easy to see that she was going to be a perfect mix for our family. Even though young and rambunctious, her eyes are one of an old soul.
[Update! April 25, 2014: We updated a new boy cat and named him Malcolm! He's a 4 year old white n tabby floof mix. He's a big love bug, and a perfect addition to our household!]
Where does the road take me from here? I'm not sure yet! This blog is just about whatever happens. Filled with mostly picture-based stories, I try to post as often as I can about whatever I feel like! I hope you stick around to join me, and I'm sure I'll come to visit you too (especially if you post about cats - heehee) :)
Cheers!

I just want you to know you have my support, whatever happens to the kittens. I do not support the putting down of animals just because they're old or there's too many of them in the shelter, but if the animal is suffering then sometimes that is the best thing to do. Your fosters are precious beautiful little things, and I'm sure there is someone who can take care of them and give them all the attention they need... but just in case they don't find you, keep the future lives of the kittens in mind... It makes me wonder if maybe the answer to euthanasia is "would the animal be able to survive in the wild?"
ReplyDeleteAnyway, good luck, and as heart breaking as it may be, or as heart warming, I have faith you'll make the best decision for the kittens.
Just sending hugs your way.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine what you are going through.
Take care of yourself. However long it takes, we'll be here when you get back.

ReplyDeleteMake sure you spoil yourself this weekend. You certainly deserve it.
I have been following your journey and my heart goes out to you and to your partner. You are truly a loving and remarkable foster mom and your little babies know you love them and want what is best for them. I live in Toronto and sent you a private email whenever you have a second to read it. Stay strong and know we all support you.
ReplyDeleteSue expressed my feelings exactly.

Purrs and prayers to you. We'll all be here when you are ready to come back.
