The Kittens
Just over two weeks ago, Buster (aka Todd) and I decided we would trap, take in and foster 5 kittens living outside in the bitter cold. It has been an amazing few weeks- i had meant to record the events more frequently, but with the holidays, 5 kittens, plus our 2 boys, George and Charlie, it has been a bit busy.
So, here we are just upon the new year, and we have 3 boys and two girls. They went for their first visit to the vet this past week. It was very traumatic for all involved. Buster was great at wrangling the kitties, i was a bit more timid. The poor kitties just freaked out when we try to catch them one by one and get them into their own carriers. Someone how we managed to with all fingers in tact- and minimal scratches.
While at the vet, they were spayed and neutered, which is most important. They were also tested for FIV and FeLV- which thankfully they tested negative for! They also got the standard spa treatment, nail trim, flea treatment, and ear cleaning.
Since back home they are doing very well, some are coming out a bit more, like Molly and Marvin. Lil' George, Ricky and Maggie are having a harder time- but we will give them all the time they need- to make sure they get adopted into good homes.
