I've been thinking about the past year's accomplishments. I think we fostered more critters than we ever have before in one year. I know we definitely worked harder at fostering than we did ever before, hand raising seven kittens from when they were a week old is something I'll likely never have time to do [...]
Suzy, QD and Quincy have all been adopted! A big thanks to the Star Phoenix for their great story on Home for the Holidays, that featured a picture of QD and Suzy!
We went to visit Penny last night. She was full of purrs for us and really appreciated the chance to stretch her legs. [...]

Here's a video of Quincy playing with a toy! Nothing earth shattering, but still cute.
Apparently the Riders heard of Orlando's reaction to their earlier losses and decided they had to give 110%! GO RIDERS!
Here is the reason that QD gets so covered in food. She gives 110% at mealtime, that's for sure.

QD puts on the cute!
Those big paws of Quincy's [...]
It is a bit easier to introduce kittens to Annie when there's no protective momma cat. We decided it was time to bring Annie into the room. Annie, of course, wasn't too worried. The kittens were slightly taken aback. See how poofy Suzy is here! At this point Annie had just entered the room.
QD checks [...]
I don't know how they manage to get so dirty, but it's always a challenge keeping kittens clean when they don't have a momma there to groom them. We also need to make sure they stay clean so they get used to it and will try to keep themselves clean too. Tonight everyone gets a [...]
Poor QD is so torn between eating and snuggles. Here is an example of what happens. We've actually decided that we should feed them, leave the room, then come back when they're done eating so they actually concentrate on eating instead of getting attention!
