Clare and Sally soon leaving....

A kitten is chiefly remarkable
for rushing about like mad
at nothing whatever,
and generally stopping before it gets there.

- Agnes Repplier -

Hai furriends!
My name is Clare and my sisfur is Sally.
Mom Bobbie finally got a picture of one of us!
It is blurry, not in focus, but since we are leaving
tomorrow to go to Connecticut this one will have to do.
We hear Robin is still without power!!
We hope we can put a smile on her face because
we are so very thankful to her for saving our lives.

~ Clare and Sally, who was even more blurry ^..^

Sunday with The Foster Kittycats

All know the way; few actually walk it.
- Bodhidharma -

Our latest fosters! Sally on left, Clare in back.
We are having serious computer problems,
but managed to get this photo from an email.
Thank you Robin at CiCH for saving these little one,
and, of course to Bobby for transporting.
There are so, so many more kittens, cats and pups
looking death row right in the face.
Please do what you can to help the rescue folks.
~~~~
Also!!! Some good news from Norfolk!!!
Dad Eagle 'may' have a new mate.
We have been so worried about him,
but hopefully he won't be alone anymore.
For pictures CLICK HERE
(Thanks for the great photos, Joe!)
A memory for Mom Eagle is being built,
and she is so missed, but we are happy for Dad!
Happy Sunday!!

Sweet Brothers have moved on...

How lucky I am to have something
that makes saying goodbye so hard.

- Winnie The Pooh -

Hai Furriends and beans.
We saw Mr. Bobby today. He had two PTU's.
We knew what that meant!!

Nigel: That meant we were moving, again.

Basil: This time we hear it will not be too far.

Foster Mom Bobbie has leaky eyes, again.
Some day she will learn to save from having a broken heart,
Don't Foster Any More Cats..

We do not think that will happen, tho because even when
it hurts so bad to let any of us go, it does feel good to know
more innocent precious lives were saved....
One life at a time...Sometimes two!!!
OK Mr. Bobby..We are ready
G'bye Bob and Patrick!


Good Luck sweet babies, I love you!
Foster Mom Bobbie
**tears** and gentle ((hugs))

Another huge Thank You to Robin at CiCH!

Also a Big Thank You to Forsyth Humane Society.

...and of course Mr. Bobby Stanford who makes it all possible!

Mancat Monday ~ Nigel and Basil

There's no other love like the love for a brother.
There's no other love like the love from a brother.

- Terri Guillemets -

Hi Furriends!
Just wanted to take a minute and introduce
you to ... two more fosters!!
Yes, we have those fine boys right here in this house!!
They have been named Basil and Nigel.
They were so afraid the first few days, so we just took
a couple of pictures, but we took a few more today.
To those of you that found some green papers
THANK YOU and for those who kept their fingers
crossed that Robin at CiCH could get them, THANK YOU!
They are safe and will be here maybe a couple of weeks.

~ Anna Sue

Now, I'd like you to meet our foster brofurs...
Basil (in front) and Nigel (on table).
They are on a grain free diet as both are
overweight at 21 and 27 pounds.
Nigel was more comfortable than Basil.

These boys sure do love each other.
We are soooo glad that they are safe and
will have a forever home!

Thank you
Robin at Covered in Cat Hair

Thank you
Humane Society of Forsyth County

Friday without Phillip

If ever there is tomorrow when we're not together.. there is something you must always remember. you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. but the most important thing is, even if we're apart.. I'll always be with you.

- Winnie The Pooh -

Hai Furriends.. Yesterday was a big day here...
Mr. Bobby came by and picked up Phillip
for his trip to Connecticut.
We think it is a squillion and seven miles away,
but Mom Bobbie and Mr. Bobby said
'No, not really'...

He was not entirely ready to go, but it was time....

Mom Bobbie was not entirely ready for him to go...

Bob and Patrick are always there to meet and greet...
or
to say g'bye.....

Mom Bobbie loves you very, very much Phillip.
We know Mom Robin will find you the Best Forever Home
in the whole wide world!

He had a different PTU when he got to the transport place..
He even had his very own number!
It was big and sorta pink.

G'bye Precious Phillip!
Safe travel, God be with your drivers and we
look forward to seeing pictures of you soon at
Mom Robins house!

This is where Mom Bobbie had to spend most of the day.
Just a regular scheduled appointment....
Everything checked out OK, but she said part of her
heart got put in that pink carrier on that yellow trailer,
and is traveling a squillion and seven miles away....

Hope you have a happy Friday..
~ The Bunch

-Mom Bobbie-
and if I may add...
Fostering is one of the hardest things I've ever done.
I am going to slow down for a couple of months,
partly because of the weather and partly because I need
a break from the heart ache that comes with it.
It's highly likely that Freya (Arizona), Bonita, MacGruber and
Phillip
would have been euthanized if it had not been for rescuers
asking if there was anyone, anywhere that could foster for a while.
I'm glad I had a small part in saving their lives and I have such high
regard for those that do rescue work and adoptions.
They are my hero's ...
If you have a small space in your home and a large place
in your heart, consider fostering for one of the rescue groups.
There are hundreds of them that need help.

~ Mom Bobbie

Wordless Wednesday ~ Phillip

I have studied many philosophers and many cats.
The wisdom of cats is infinitely superior.

- Hippolyte Taine -

Happy Wednesday!!
~ Phillip

Mancat Monday ~ Phillip

I believe in animal rights,
and high among them is the right
to the gentle stroke of a human hand.

- Robert Brault -

Hai furriends...I am a very Happy Mancat!
I am enjoying my freedom. Although I do not get to see the other cats here except to see them when my door is opened, I am still free! A few weeks ago I was in a high kill shelter in Georgia. Robin of CICH saw my picture and asked a friend if she would foster me until I could travel. If this had not happened, I would not have my freedom. My time would have probably run out, or maybe I would have gotten sick, or no more room, and I would have been put down. So, you see why I am happy to have my freedom, even if it is in a room of my very own, with toys to play with and a little bit of nip and fresh food and water and humans that love me and give me good pets and scritches..I am a very happy Mancat!
Now I'll return the blog to The Bunch ^..^
Happy Mancat Monday!!
~ Phillip

Finally Friday - Phillip

You cannot do a kindness too soon,
for you never know how soon it will be too late.

- Ralph Waldo Emerson -

Kindness? This is kindness??
Trying to hold me just to take my picture?
Well, take it quick because I'm getting down.

Happy Friday to all our furriends
~ Phillip and The Bunch

Thankful Thursday - Phil

Hem your blessings with thankfulness so they don't unravel.

- Unknown -

Hai everyone! I am Phillip and I am still a foster here! I am not easy to photograph, can you tell? Mom Bobbie had the camera and the bean daughter, Rene' was trying to get me to turn around so everyone could see my handsome self. Well, that didn't work!

I just wanted to borrow the blog and say how thankful I am to Robin at Covered In Cat Hair for saving my life! She is also involved in saving a stray cat and her brand new babies here in Georgia. Please take a minute, go over and see that lucky family right HERE!
We are ALL so thankful for Robin and people like her! As much as Mom Bobbie will miss me, (because I am such a good, sweet, handsome kitty cat) I am looking forward to meeting Robin when I get to Connecticut.

Mancat Monday ~ Timothy, Babycats

The nice thing about teamwork
is that you always have others on your side.

- Margaret Carty -

Hai, Timothy here, just enjoying my basket.
We still have Phil, but we also had two boy babycats!
Our great friend, Mr. Bobby took them to their new home!

Are they the cutest little things you ever saw?
They came all the way from Michigan!
That is I think, about eleventy two squillion miles away.
It took a whole lot of people to make this happen,
and they are finally at their forever home in
South Carolina!

G'bye little babcats!! We hope to see pictures soon!
Now, I must try to get Mom to visit our furriends.
She is falling very short of her responsibilities of
being our typist and communicator.
Hope you all have a Happy Mancat Monday!
~ Timothy

Wordless Wednesday ~ Phil

But ask the beasts, and they will teach you.

- Job 12:7 -

Our foster, Phil wishing you a
Happy Wednesday!
He is also giving a BIG THANK YOU to
Robin at Covered In Cat Hair
for saving his life!!
She could use a green paper or two if
you have it to spare...
~ The Bunch

Friday without Figaro

We call them dumb animals, and so they are,
for they cannot tell us how they feel,
but they do not suffer less because they have no words.
— Anna Sewell -

Figaro went to his next foster house today. Mom was sad,
but she knows he is working his way to his forever home.
He is one of the sweetest and largest kittycats we have ever kept!
Good Bye Figaro, we wish you the BEST!

~ Noah

Thankful Thursday ~ Noahs' Ark

To close your eyes will not ease another's pain.
- Chinese Proverb -

Well, Mom has another interloper in the front room.
He is from Henry County Animal Control.
This is just a quick layover for him,
as he is going to New York in a couple of weeks!

We cannot believe that someone tossed out or gave away such a beautiful animal. He is part Maine Coon, and so handsome. Today he will go to the lady that will foster him. All Mom did was go get him after he got tutored yesterday at Noahs Ark. He is doing great today and she is enjoying him while she can. She said he is a 'love bug' and a gentle giant, and still growing.

We are so very thankful that there are people that are willing to
rescue these precious animals and find them homes.

While she was at Noahs' Ark, she got to see one of our cousins.
He was a lot bigger than the kitty she brought home!

See!!

This pretty guy has a UTI, some of us know how that feels!
We hope he gets over it really soon so he can
go back to his living quarters there at
Noahs' Ark.

They are an animal rehab center as well as
have childrens care homes.
Take a look at their beautiful website,
over a thousand animals call Noahs' Ark home!
Yes, we are thankful for them!!

~ Maggie Mae

Thankful Thursday ~ Noah

Don't do what you'll have to find an excuse for.
- Proverb -

Hai - Noah here,
Our Mom has an excuse why she is going into the front room so much.
She said she is checking on that little kittycat, MacGruber.
We can hear her talking to him and telling him how
beautiful and wonderful and pretty and handsome he is!
Well, if he is all that, I guess she has a good excuse.

We are So Thankful that the little guy was pulled from a kill shelter
right before he was to die.
Yep we are glad Mom loves him so much, and he will have
a great forever home in a few weeks, thanks to Robin at
Covered In Cat Hair!

Happy Thursday to all our Furriends and beans!
~ Noah

Easy Like Sunday ~ MacGruber

Who would believe such pleasure from a wee ball o' fur?
- Irish Saying -

Just a quick post to let you know MacGruber is doing great.
Mom spends too much time in his room with him in
* My Most Humble Opinion *
but, he will just be here a short time, so we tolerate it.
Mom said his furs are so much more orange than they look in the photos.
Some day we may get a nice camera until then we'll be happy
and thankful for what we do have!

Our sun is out today and we plan to have an Easy Sunday.
Wishing the same to you and yours!
~ Timothy

Bonita goes on the road..

The smallest feline is a masterpiece.

Mom Bobbie said I have a long trip ahead.
She said Bobby would come back for me.
~
I didn't see him, are you sure he is coming?
~

Oh, I think I see him in the driveway now!
Do you know where he is taking me?
~

Hai Bobby! I hear there is a long trip coming up,
and you are taking me to my next stop today!
~

Is this my very own P-T-U, Bobby?
I remember coming here in it.
~
Oh, I guess it is mine, at least for a while.
~
G'bye Mom Bobbie. I'm going to a rescue that will find me my
Forever Home.
Thank you for taking care of me, and don't be sad.
~
G'bye Timothy and Malachi..
I am off on a new adventure!
~
I am sure my new rescue will write Mom Bobbie
and let her know how I am doing.

Thank you to everyone that helped get me out of
Animal Control and on the way to a new life!
~ Bonita

Tortie Thursday and our Bonita

Cats are kindly masters, just so long as you remember your place.
- Paul Gray -

We think our little foster will be leaving in the morning for New Jersey. Mom sure will miss her, she is a sweet little girl kittycat.

We are so thankful for the people that pull, rescue, foster and find forever homes for so many of the animals on death row.

Happy Tortie Thursday!

~ Jasmine

We are fostering a Tuxie Mancat!

Three things in human life are important.
The first is to be kind. The second is to be kind.
And the third is to be kind.
-Henry James-

We are fostering a tuxie. He is 16 years old.
A nice lady in New York saw his picture on PetFinder
and fell in love with him. He has a URI, and does not feel good.
He puts his foot and leg in the water to drink.
There are some raw spots on his legs and chest.
Our vet said it is a rash. She shaved some of his furs off of it.
It is under his fur and red.
He is diabetic, but vet said special food should take care of that.
He has some medicine and when he is well enough to travel,
a transport will be set up to take him to his forever home
from here in Georgia to New York!
He is a very, very large kittycat, but very thin and weak.
He is in the extra room that the babycats were in a few weeks ago.
Please send him some Purrrs to get well.
