Nice to have supportive neighbor?
My goodness, you are a kitten magnet!

When I put out letters to my neighbors about TNR I had a couple negative people about Ferals but after awhile one of the negatives turned into a positive supporter.
and the other doesn't complain and is ok with it I think.

My four temporary fosters are going to Wisconsin tommorrow. The lady next to me in my new apartment feeds cats. She told me about people here killing kittens and cats disappearing. So alot like the old place. This morning three kittens wandered over to my porch. They were about four weeks old and very hissy.
The cycle never seems to end, does it?

Well, that's some progress, anyway.

First thing! If anyone here could fit Wanda Heart into their lives, it would be sooo great. I spoke to the shelter today. I don’t know for sure if she will be accepted or when but she may be leaving us very soon. Too soon! :bawling2:I know everyone here is at their maximum cat allowance but I did want to put that out there. I think we might be able to find transport. I would certainly try.


rubysmama rubysmama I look forward to doing the yearbook this Winter. That’s a fun project to look forward to.

N NY cat man Letting Wanda Heart go is going to be extremely hard. Especially if they want her quickly. Of course, it’s better for her to get established while young.:( I would still love to see more photos or orange kitties. Actually all the kitties! Wanda Heart would like to see her cousins! ;) ( okay, I admit it. I would like to see them. Lol)
My ribs are about the same. As you know, it takes time. Thank goodness the kitties are doing my chores right now.

@Avery We always have to do what is best for them. She deserves the very best kind of life. She really is a lover. I am hoping for something very special for her. I found a vet that wants an orange tabby but... he wants a male. Really? Okay, he doesn’t deserve Wanda Heart. I offered to pay for the Spay! Truthfully though, if he is stuck on having a male, it isn’t the right place for her but I was really hoping since I could have kept tabs on her.

W walli I love the ginger babies too! To find a female is also quite unusual. I’m sorry you lost your friend Tigger! We never forget our babies. They are our BFF s.:alright:

@surya On no! I had hoped you would be in an area with less kitties needing help but if a neighbor feeds, at least you have another deron near who loves them.
The kitties are going? That’s good news! If three kittens are there then I guess you’ll be needing to work with them. The work of a rescuer never seems to end. Maybe you and the neighbor can provide a united front there to provide a small pocket of territory that is safer for the kitties. Hoping! :vibes::heartshape:


Hey everybody!

If someone will adopt me, I’ll be a very good girl!

N NY cat man Progress does seem very slow doesn’t it? Actually W walli started off in the midst of a very difficult area to do any rescues. They have made some uplifting changes there.
@surya has also had to struggle with the people around her. Having a neighbor near that cares about cats is better than none. As you and all others rescue the ones they can, we do make some progress. You have saved a lot of lives. I feel that is huge. Together our numbers grow and progress will as well. Hopefully faster!

Wanda Heart has a growing appetite but she is interested in trying new foods.

Here are our smiles for tonight!

Hmmmm. Let me have a sample.

What did you say? Ow or Meow?

I thought you wanted me to eat better....

Actually just trimming your nails for you. Don’t you ever use a tree to scratch on?

You need a scratching post.
0E1470D3-D3C6-4755-B068-EB3F488DDAB3.jpeg

Let’s find something else.

Let go! I want this!
CC441F72-6060-4295-B353-E8A097A75B15.jpeg

Is this your fur?
BB7393F8-336E-4AF0-9693-051A25405EE1.jpeg

You have weird fur mom.
6CDCC398-768D-4162-AD99-A62565296F75.jpeg

What breed are you anyway?
D937F24A-532E-4338-A931-278FBB0862EE.jpeg

Okay. If I can’t have that then...
39360761-A6AE-4872-9752-F3988A770BD2.jpeg

I can try this.
C5DE48DB-50BB-42D3-96F5-37A565D67985.jpeg

Hard to get a piece of this!
8D754DAD-C7BC-40B0-A2B3-50F8C353DCA4.jpeg

Not worth eating.
ED30F64C-0CDC-4E17-8A6A-1DECBFCD089D.jpeg

No flavor at all!
936AB074-8EB1-46E3-B51F-AC64545A4E3F.jpeg

Could you bring me some more of that baby food stuff? It tastes MUCH better.
EAF8AFB6-C2A1-4780-9C7B-A9157BAD615D.jpeg

Can we eat now instead of taking pictures?
ACC3EA41-247A-49EC-85B4-A31E97EF0F3B.jpeg

Well, I surrendered a fingernail, a bit of “fur” and a little bit of fabic and skin! :flail:All good to me! Wanda Heart is behaving like a happy, playful and healthy kitten! She gave me happiness in return. I’ll make that trade any time! :yess:

Have a great night everyone! Wanda Heart and all the others send purrs! :gingercat2::purr:

I didn't say anything but I was actually thinking about exporting when I first started reading Wanda Heart's story. It's become so popular with pets nowadays. If it wasn't for my current situation, I'd definitely take her. It's not too much money to ship an animal overseas.

Mamanyt1953 Mamanyt1953 I know! I got really excited when she started to play. It made me feel that she is getting better and feeling safe. I can hardly wait to let her in with the other kitties. It will be about a month before she can be exposed to BJ. Immunizations first. I can shut all the kitties up and sterilize an area to let her have exposure to more house noises but she can’t have the run of the house yet. I really wish she could. I know she would love it. She deserves the full kitten experience.

Graceful-Lily Graceful-Lily That is so sweet. You can still love her from afar! She sends you purrs!

N NY cat man Prancer is beautiful! I love the pure white with the orange. I also love the name. You come up with great ones. I love seeing the photos! Thank you! I smiled! I don’t have a Prancer but I have kitties who are dancers. Lol Banjo dances a lot with her frog prince.

rubysmama rubysmama :lol: Ruby! Were you in your secret hiding place? Close the door please! I was in the middle of something! Tell Ruby to move up because she is difinitely “top drawer” here!

I returned to the vet today. We need to see if Wanda Heart is clear of the Coccidia. I didn’t get the results yet. Hoping!!!! I can’t start her shots until she is better and she has to stay in quarantine until then. :( I want our baby out. It’s been some long months since I had a kitten in the house. When the last one left it was kind of sad. I dicn’t know we’d be parents again here. Wanda Heart has a whole lot of adopting parents, brothers and sister to meet. Our littlest Clowder member. I really want her to have time with others before she may have to go for adoption. I don’t know if the timing will work out but we can hope. She is already pawing at the door to join the others. When she hears me coming she is sitting and staring st the door as I open it. She also tries to follow me out. The looks she gives when I have to leave her in the room.... break my heart WH! Little tiny mews too! Ungh. This one is going to really want arms to hold her forever. The pictures for tonight should bring smiles as well as melting hearts.

Lay back Wanda Heart!

Resume please! Waiting.......
F95EFFF8-21C4-4BC6-B462-47B9BE790D92.jpeg

:flail: Oh my! At first I thought she had gone to sleep. Nope! She was just realaced and waiting! The tummy rubs are now very popular.
We should get test results tomorrow. We’re trying some new foods too. She has to be willing to eat kitty food at some point. Maybe I bought something that will appeal to her. :crossfingers:
For those of you who want an update on BJ...
Since Mom has hurt ribs, he offered to carry my purse for me today. :alright: If only he had known.... my purse weighs more than he does! He really worked to carry it over his paw.:lol:


Mom. I’m exhausted. I think my paw is bent.

He’s recovered now and snoring. Lol

Have a great night everyone! :heartshape:

rubysmama rubysmama I got the results and Wanda is clear of Coccidia. However, had to go back to the vet because she still has hookworms. She’ll be one meds for that the next three days. Poor baby has been doing so well taking the meds from a syringe. I know she hates seeing me approach with it but she takes it like a little trooper.

BJ sends more snores and purrs. He is asleep in the same spot as yesterday. If I hadn’t seen him running around earlier, I would think he hasn’t moved an inch! Lol

Buffster7 Buffster7 Oh well, I was her servant from the moment I saw her. She led me on that night time pursuit to solidify my position as hand maid to her. I am currently handing her everything she wants.:lol: The belly petting request really solidified my position with her. She owns me! :p She is just soooo adorable. I love those pictures of her. Kitty faces speak volumnes!

Dear Jcatbird. Is Hekitty. We are very good at training you. We are cats, and good at EVERYTHING. Tell Banjo I still want a position on her cabinet when she is elected President. And tell BJ I still think he is cute.
Hello dear Hekitty! This is BJ, Hubba, Hubba you beautiful lady! I have a sweet spot for you!:purr:I send you many purrs and head butts. If you were here I would be attending to your every wish. You fur servant, :bluepaw: BJ

Well hi! This is Banjo! You definitely have a position high in my cabinet. Presidential and kitchen! :bicolorcat:

They are purrfectionist when it comes to training us humans. I think Hekitty may be one of the best! She won me with just a message! :lol:
