subee how are babies doing?

Cleaned out linen cabinet to get rid of unlikeable towels and sheets this weekend. They are needed at Animal Shelter for the winter cold.

Cleaned out the kitty toy box so PeachesBoi and Tigger could donate some of their many unused toys.

Plus, Pillows I hate and two bags of stuff into my car to drop off at the shelter on way home tonight.

Now remebering I have throw rugs in the garage to get rid of. Will wash first then take them over.

They're doing okay. They must have had a really good mother, because they're in great shape to start with, which gives us a little time for them to adjust. We've decided they are younger than we were told - probably one week instead of two. They suck some, but then I have to squeeze the bottle to finish off the feeding. So far, so good. I've fostered enough kittens to not say that they're out of the woods, but for now they're doing fine. Thanks for asking Tommi!

Belle made me think of this thread again. Of the seven kittens in the litter, five have been adopted to really good homes. One went back to the original owner, and four went - in pairs! We were really happy about that. My partner is still fostering the two remaining boys, because we were afraid that they'd get stepped on by my dogs when they were really small. They are just little love bugs! Even when they play they like to do so right beside one of us. We're still making an "effort" to find them a home, but - uhhhhh - wouldn't it be a shame if they had to stay with us?

I've been really busy since the last time this thread was active. Little Sister went to a wonderful home, then I pulled a big blue Doberman and got him a great home in Michigan, then I had an amazing black and rust who is helping a girl dog who is terribly fearful get through her days. And last but not least, I had an owner turn in of a 7 year old Doberman that I gave to my Mom who was still grieving the loss of my father. Duke is helping my mom through the grief, doing an excellent job!

I can understand why factory farmers don’t want the public seeing images of their business practices. The images of almost featherless hens, so crowded the animals are living on top of each other, or pigs being struck with metal bars by workers coarsened to their duties are deeply disconcerting. The response should not be, as in some country ruled by a dictator or a junta, to have the strongmen grab the cameras and smash them to the ground or melt them in a fire, as the authorities do in order to hide the beating and shooting of pro-democracy advocates. It's the same principle at work for the strongmen in these state legislatures. Their scheme is a neater way to smash those cameras to the ground and hide what's going on. Ironically, they want to prevent their very own customers, America's consuming public, from learning about the production practices that bring food to their tables and plates.
