As we pause to count our blessings this year, you're one of them. We're thankful for you!
Because of your generosity, we were able to rescue Zoey who was very near death at the time of her rescue.
Wall-E is now 3 weeks old. I wonder why there is only 1 kitten? Could it be that something got the others and he was the only one left? That would explain why the mom wouldn't take care of him. Maybe she was too frightened to return for him. Well, it doesn't matter now. He is safe and sound at F.A.T. Cat Haven.
This sweet little girl was brought to us about 3 weeks ago now. She was in very bad shape. I don't think she would have lasted much longer on her own. You can see and feel every bone in her little body, she is extremely thin.
Wow, Amos has moved from the infamous chair to the heated window seat in the living room. Do you think I may have fluffed his chair cushion one to many times? He is venturing out more. I see him all over the house now. Of course, he always comes for his morning treats. Look at this photo. Don't you wish you could sleep as peacefully as this, with not a care in the world?
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.
The fun just never stops around here. Trying to get everyone in for the night, with treats, of course. Hum, who's missing? Baby-Girl isn't here. I'm off to search for her. I'm calling her and hear a small meow. where is that coming from? I call again and hear the small meow again. Ok, little girl where are you?
My sweet, sweet, boy Wall-E died Saturday. He was 4 weeks old exactly and gone now. He was just starting to venture out. He took a turn during the night and wouldn't drink his bottle. He just went downhill from there. I am devastated. I can't stop crying. From the moment I got him, at only hours old, I was his mom. It's hard to believe he's gone. He took a piece of my heart with him. His little body is buried in the memorial garden but he is running free, chasing butterflies. He waits at Rainbow Bridge.
Have you seen pictures of Wall-E? We got him when he was hours old. Now he is 14 days old and doing great. He has grown so much. He goes through a lot of kitty milk! Have you ever bottle-fed before? It means your sleep is really broken up. At first, I fed him every 2 hours because his little tummy couldn't hold much. Now it's about every 3 hours so I get more sleep I also have to potty him because at this age he can't go on his own. Momma cat would do this normally by licking him which stimulates them to go potty.
We're so sad! We lost three resident cats to two German Shepherds who came through our driveway.
We have a new sign to match our new website. Our new sign was a special surprise. It was a gift from our web designer. It looks really clean and lets everyone coming to the house know that this is a sanctuary for cats.
Ribs can't walk. We don't know why. He came to us in this condition. So he needs someone to put him in front of his water or food throughout the day.
What happened to him? What is Ribs thinking?
Wow, our excellent web designer has created a new website for F.A.T. Cat Haven. It's so much nicer, and much more user-friendly too. It sure looks great! Have you seen it yet? Check it out, and sign up for our blogs while you're there. This way you won't miss any of our cat tales.
