uh oh

so, recently I have been letting Chandler bing bong out of the room to play with the big kids. I only did that because his brothers went on the neuter run and he was too little. NOW, he comes out because he thinks he lives here lol. He's a great little dude. He's going to make some family really happy :)

Foster Babes...

So I brought Chandler to the vet today to have him checked out. he has
some infected spots on his bod. poor baby. he's on clavamox (amoxicillin
for cats) and has some cream to put on the spots. He purred the whole
time he was at the vet! he's a great little dude!

Joey... He came by me tonight and actually let me pet him. baby steps.

Gunther... you can tell that he wants to come and play so badly but he
keeps his distance and watches.

and then there is Ross. Ross and I have a love/hate relationship.
He loves to hate me. I have read every article on how to "tame a feral kitten"
and even watched videos on how to do it. I'd like to make my own video called
"how to tame a feral kitten except it's not working at all leave suggestions"

I got a few good ones. use low voices, don't smile big (looks like you're going to eat them), turn on a radio when you're not in the room.

so what I did when I went in before was frown, used a deep voice and sang.
didn't work lol.

so I tried this.... turned on the radio and left the room.

the result was this.... LOUD MUSIC cuz someone thought the radio was a toy.

I feel like the piano guy from sesame street!!

Ross

I hate that I can't "get" him. He runs. He hates me. I'm being
serious. I feel like a failure with him. I also feel bad because
I want to give the whole batch back in trade for adorable friendly
kittens. I was so pumped about getting foster kittens. and I really
think Chandler is sweet. he's the only one I would keep lol (not KEEP..)
I feel like an idiot because I have so many questions. blah.

Wild Ones....

I have 4 wild kittens...one purrs, one is getting use to me coming in and will come to my foot, one comes ALMOST within petting distance ........and then there's Ross. I don't know what to do about him. he WILL NOT come by me AT ALL. he's curious about what i'm doing. he will come by the dishes to be fed. He runs away and will keep running if I keep moving. If I am on one side of the room, he is on the other...watching me intently. I have never had a foster batch like these before. It's REALLY hard. I like the ones where they come almost ready to go and I just need to give them some TLC. I am not caring for this batch. No offense to them. They did nothing wrong. They can't help they are nervous (except for Chandler, he's NOT nervous at all!)

Foster Challenges...

I am continuing on the path of fostering cats and kittens. I had a batch of 2 girls and 2 boys last time. And an almost keeper named Carmella. That's the dangerous part of being a foster home. The ones you want to keep. For me, there were a couple.

Carmella. :)




Now I have 4 boys. Joey, Ross, Chandler and Gunther. (the friends boys!)
they are wild boys but I am going to make them into sweet purr monsters!!
