Cozy kittens

Darling orange tabby August has been adopted, but his four equally wonderful sisters are still waiting for their forever homes.

APRILApril is the biggest love bug -- she want to cuddle all the time. She is a medium hair, dilute torbie -- mostly silver tabby with cream highlights. Her special buddy is June.

JUNEJune has the beautiful look of a Maine Coon cat with her medium length dark torbie fur with touches of soft orange. She wrestles with May & July, but cuddles with April.

JULYJuly is one of the twins with short torbie fur with black and orange and tabby stripes. She has more orange on her face and is more outgoing than May.

MAY & JULYMay, the other torbie twin, is the shyest of the group. She is almost always with her sister July. They would make an especially good pair.

UPDATE FROM ADOPTER OF BROTHER AUGUST:
Ryan (August's new name) is doing really well.

He purrs pretty much constantly (especially at night, when he's sleeping on the fleece blanket) and gets along well with our dog and cat.

Attached are a few pictures of Ryan and Cali enjoying a fire.

BA~

This update brought a happy tear to this foster mom's heart to see her little boy settled in so warm and content with his new best friend!

Merlin & May

May and her sister April were semi-feral kittens when they came from Red Lake to a foster home in the Twin Cities last fall. May was adopted first and we have an update from her new home with her new fur buddy Merlin.

May is adjusting well. Merlin was very annoyed at first and he sulked in his kitty bed for about a week, but there was never any tension between them. Merlin nor May ever tried to attack each other and there was no hissing either. May used to stay hidden down in the basement on a desk, but now she stays up and plays with us in the living room.

MERLIN & MAYMerlin has gradually warmed up to her and now he doesn't care if she's around. They've even started playing together sometimes. They both like to run up and down the stairs, and May really likes chasing after the laser pointer. May's become very friendly and she likes to sit on our laps on the couch, although she does occasionally slip off. She is a bit greedy when it comes to food and I now have to stand over Merlin while he's eating to make sure she doesn't zip in and eat his food. I've included a picture of her and Merlin sitting in the scratching post chair
together!

Sweet old-fashioned Amelia and friends

A nineteen-year-old cat named Ethel was left homeless when her elderly owner died. Karen took her in and she has moved into a wonderful foster home.

AMELIA BEFORENOTES FROM FOSTER MOM:
Oh, my goodness, what a wonderful cat! I clipped off most of her mats and then zoom-groomed her and she LOVED it! I'll work on her again tonight and I think we can avoid shaving her.

She is very very sweet and we are so glad she is here with us! She will live out her life in comfort and love.

LIBBYLibby and Buttons are so sweet too-this is a wonderful group-we love them!

LATER:
We renamed her Amelia because we felt she should have a beautiful name for the rest of her life.

AMELIA AFTERShe was very matted when we got her, and she got a shave and a bath at the vet. We also found out she had an ear infection, which is being treated.

She has a very gentle soul. She is content to sleep in her lime green bed until she gets a visitor-she is especially fond of men! Her favorite perch is on our chests or our hips and she loves to be petted.

AMELIA WITH SWEATERWe tried to put a sweater and a t-shirt on her to keep her warm, but she wriggled out of both of them. She gets along with her two roommates, Bijou (formerly Buttons) and Libby, but we brought her upstairs to live with us because of the cold.

BIJOUWe are very grateful to have the lovely Amelia living with us, even though a friend of ours is thinking she would like to have her company in her nice, big, quiet house which has no other cats.

APRIL & MAYI'm also attaching a picture of April and May. They were two almost-feral kittens who came to live with us in August. They are big girls now, and still looking for their homes. April is going to have a visitor tomorrow and if that doesn't result in an adoption, she'll go to the Highland Chuck and Don's store to see if someone there will be unable to resist her.
