Snuggling with Mist his BFF.
Freckles, the mother cat, was extremely thin and ill and took a long time to regain her health, but she is gorgeous and energetic now. The kittens needed some supportive care, but they are beauties. 
Oddly, only one has been adopted and that is the one solid black kitten, Twizzler, but he was special with extra toes on both front feet. His new family adores him and encourages anyone else looking for a kitty companion to consider the rest of the family. Twizzler got along right away with the other cat in his new household and the kids! 
There are two orange tabby brothers, Diego who has white trim and Dorito who does not. Diego is more mischievous and Dorito is more mellow. 
They definitely want to find a home together and are a perfect matching pair and have been since they were tiny.
There is also sister Twyla who is a tortie like her mother but with the softest medium length fur and a very lush tail. I usually just call her "Princess" because she knows she is one. She and her mom, Freckles, are buddies so they would make a great pair, but they could also go solo.

The mama was very skinny and had little milk. Her five kittens were newborn, perhaps a day old. The runt died on day 2 here at the shelter.
I know the metro is clogged up with kittens, but do you suppose there is a foster home out there for this little teen mama?
When I received this note from Karen, I decided this group probably needed an experienced foster mom -- like me! The kittens were tiny and the mom was emaciated, dehydrated and had diarrhea. It took three trips to the vet for fluids, medicine, and special food, but all recovered fully. They were spayed/neutered on Tuesday and are ready for adoption!
The four kittens are three boys, two orange and one black, and one girl who is a tortie mini of her mom.

Last, but not least, is TWIZZLER, a smaller breed dog who came here Thursday as a result of a dog attack. He was already neutered at our May clinic and the owner decided to surrender Twizzler so he could get vet care. He went to the vet and had a leg wound treated and got an e-collar which earned him the name of "cone-head" by Jodi and Barbara. He moved into the cat house with Andy while here--a wonderful guy who will be missed. BTW, Twizzler loves black twizzlers and that's how he got the name. He is enroute to All Dog Rescue.
We want to give a great big hug and thank you to rescues and transporters who make this all possible. We think this group of dogs was one of the BEST. We could open all the kennel doors and they would all get along!! Even with Grandpa dog.
