Well, it looks like we are expanding again.  Four four-week-old kittens were found in the woods with a feral momma cat.  Three of them were trapped and were brought to F.A.T Cat Haven to raise.  They have been switched from formula to solid food and are using a potty box already.  Their names are Groucho, Sugar, and Spitfire.  Sybil, a black, spayed 4-year-old, has decided to play mom.  When they are out playing she tries to carry them off.  We had to dig them out from under the couch today.  They are back in their playpen now.

If you have read my last post, I mentioned being busy with kitten's.  Well, 5 newborn kittens were found in a pile of trash behind a store in town.  We were called and went to pick them up.  They had already been removed from their location and put in a box.  We searched for the mom with no luck.  Who knows if she would have come back?  Maybe she was just out hunting.  We will never know.  So the next step is bottle feeding every 2 hours around the clock.  They all passed one by one.  The last one I thought was going to make it.  Named him Teddy.  He was the happiest snuggling on my neck.  He also broke my heart and died at 19 days old.    Maybe Mom sensed that there was something wrong with them.  

So sad, but we tried! 

If you've read our blogs you know we had an unexpected expense. The new motorized gate keeps the cats safe. Now we have taken in 3 new cats recently, Amos, Zoey, and Star. Amos and Zoey went to the vet yesterday along with Willow, our resident 10-year-old. They will all be staying a second day and probably a third to wait for bloodwork results.

Rambo has been with us for about 2 weeks now. He seems to love it here and enjoys roaming the property. He is 14 years old and a beautiful Bengal.

This is the newest addition to FAT Cat Haven. Wall-E is hours old in these photos. His mom only had 1 kitten and wouldn't care for him so he came to us. I will be bottle feeding for 4 weeks now. He has bonded with me. When I breath on him or hold him, he will start purring.
