GREAT news!!!!!

Okay, I know this is super belated, and I have been meaning to post about it - but for some reason, I've been having trouble finding enough time to get my postings in lately. I am doing all my usual rounds reading all my blog haunts, but due to the fact that I have no ability to post at work and then rarely have time to make a good post when I get home... well, I know I've been lacking! But, I have a great post for today in regards to a couple things.

First of all:
My wonderful, beautiful, sweetheart Mirium.... WAS ADOPTED!!! Oh boy oh boy oh boy! When I went in last Thursday it almost brought a tear to my eye that someone finally took her home. I was just so excited and happy for her. I know she's going to have a wonderful life ahead of her!
I mean, I would have loved to keep her for myself. But I know that would have been very selfish of me towards Yoko. I know that bringing in another adult cat this far into her life wouldn't be fair. Though I am so glad to meet all these wonderful kitties and see them grow and get great homes. :) It really makes me happy.
(Sadly, there's no pictures because she already left for her new home when I got there. But, that's ok ;))

In other good news:
I was given another wonderful surprise when I went last Thursday. I wonder if you can recognize this little gorgeous baby??

That's right!!
It was Whisper!
And she was bright eyed and happy and OH SO BIG! She's growing like a weed!
It's so wonderful to see that she's feeling so much better. Remember when I brought her home from the shelter the first time and she was so very sick? The poor little girl, I had to spend so much one-on-one time with her. It was actually really hard to see her go back to Petsmart. I really had fallen in love with her. Anyway, she's doing wonderful now, and I can see she's made lots of friends there. I know she'll get adopted very quickly with her lovely attitude!

None of the other three from the Foursome were there, unfortunately. Which made me a little sad. But, I'm hoping that I'll be seeing them when I head there this week.

So.... More good news? Absolutely!
Two of the kittens when I worked last week were adopted, too! Wahoo! That always makes me happy!

Pictures of all the cuties are as follows:

  Paws

"Whatchyou lookin' at?"

Nikkio

"There's something about looking like someone famous..." 

 

Nikkio

"Though, I don't care. I just like to be my sweet, cuddly self. I'll make my new owners proud!" 

 

Whisper and Nikkio cuddling

Hee. I really hope she gets a good home. I'm going to miss her so much <3

The Office Christmas Tree

We like to do a little Christmas decorating in every room of the house. For our office, we have a 4-foot Christmas tree, that's fairly basic (just lights, a santa, and a few balls). Because we spend most of our time in here, we have to have some festiveness to enjoy :)

I think someone else likes it, too. ;)









--------------------------------------
Also, I'm still having some trouble taking pictures of the Sisters. They're just so speedy for my little camera, and all the pictures come out so blurry! So, in the meantime, here's a funny video from tonight of the two of them roughhousing.... on my lap! (ouch!) You'll see I actually had to break them up at one point cause it breaks my heart when one of them starts to cry.

Box Fort

Our temporary cat tree - made out of several boxes that we had around the house. The girls just love getting in them!

Toy Talkin'

Thanks to everyone for all the nice thoughts from yesterday. All the well wishes must have helped, because I'm finally feeling a little better this morning :) I think I'll probably head over to Petsmart after all.

Last night, I sat downstairs with my laptop and decided that since I spent all day in bed with Yoko, I'd let the kittens out of their room for a while. As usual, it was fairly dark down there, but I did capture a pretty funny video of Chia talking to a hair elastic.

I've found her doing this to the toys in her room before - and it's super cute the way she talks to them while she's playing with them. I wonder what the heck she could possibly be saying?

"Hey! Come back here, mister elastic! I'm gonna get you!"

Belated Postings

My apologies again for the lack of postings as of late. I've unfortunately been stuck in bed with the flu for days (and still am, but grabbed my laptop to bed today :P).

I wanted to post my visit to Petsmart from last week, since it's been a week since I've been there! I'm still going to try to make it there tomorrow, for at least a couple of hours, if I'm feeling up to it. Going to have to play it by ear.

Mirium (I have been spelling it wrong since I met her, I believe this is now the correct spelling)

She got a lion cut shave and she looks so adorable.

When I was there last week, someone was very interested in her! I really hope she's going to finally get adopted.

I was going to take her, but I don't think she'll be very happy in the little foster room... :( I'm trying to pass the word on to everyone I know that she's there though. She really is one of the greatest kitties ever, and deserves a good home.

 Sally was still there, to my surprise. She's such a pretty girl.

 Girly-Girl

She lived up her name. She was a sweetheart too. Quite the set of lungs on her :)

 

 

 

The back kitten is Bling, one of the kitty's from another foster home. She's really playful and cute. I don't remember the marmalade-kitteh's name, unfortunately (on second look, I think that's Bart). They were all very sweet though :)

 

Savy

When I first walked in, I thought this little guy was my Keanu. He looked just like him! (A little less of a brat though ;))

Brothers Moe and Bart

These boys were very mild mannered for kittens. I couldn't believe how nice they were. They were always looking for cuddles :)

 

Gremlin

Okay, like every visit to Petsmart, I always fall in love with one. And Gremlin was my love last week.

I want this kitty soooo bad! The minute I saw him I fell head over heels. He was SO sweet and SO soft (I kept telling people to touch him because his fur was unbelievable!) and his face is just SO beautiful. I think he has some purebred in him (my guess would be turkish angora, but that would probably be a stretch). His face was very different from any kitten I've ever seen - too bad you can't really tell from these pictures though.

Anyway, sorry that's all I have to offer for now. Back to bed I go! I hope to get more updates in soon. The Sisters are getting bigger every day and I really need to put in a new post of them.

Do You Like My New Hat?

Imported from Paris, France.

One of a kind.

Delicate and Gorgeous.

Will mew on command.

 

Has it been almost a week??

I haven't vanished, I swear! This week was bustling with things to do. It's a pain in the rear that I have no ability to post things from work on lunch breaks or anything either (only blogger commenting gets blocked for some reason).

So now it's Saturday and I'm in my jammies with a kitty on my lap and a coffee in hand, therefore it's time for a post!

I have been trying to keep up with still taking pictures and videos of the little squirts. They are getting SO cute (well, not that they weren't cute before ;)). And I have a lot of them to make up for my absence :)

Shoulder Cat

 

I likes shoulders :)

I wubs my foster mommy.

Climbing on her is fun!

Well, aren't I just the cutest little girl you've ever seen?

 

I'm too quick to take pictures of.

And I sure love to climb legs!

Snugglies ♥

Crazy Candy

I lurve this toy. kthxbye.

Oh, and this box. Boxes are also fun!

*swat swat*

Dis iz my box. You can't have.

There's a toy over there, too! Also mine.

 

I'm gonna get you, Candy!

Typical 'I want to be picked up' routine.

PS: Still to come -- Petsmart Visit update. 

Quick note, the foursome still haven't been adopted. 

They have been taken back to the SPCA from URI :( *sad*
