Oh Little Orphan Annie, I'm so glad the sun came out for you at Sue and Rosie's house! Now to find you a Daddy Warbucks ;-)
It's times like these when I'm glad for the distance between Washington and Michigan. It keeps me from filling every available corner with adorable kittens. (Who am I kidding? We have cute kittens in Michigan too. The thing that prevents overcrowding is called a husband.)
Oh, Annie is a beauty! And such a lucky little girl, to be so wonderfully well taken care of. I know she's got a happy future being a bossy tortie. Because there's nothing more fun than being a servant to tortitude!
What a gorgeous, sweet kitty Annie is. She almost looks like Rosie startled her from a nap...then realizes she is getting groomed and settles in for the fun.
Annie, you must be clean for your internet debut. Rosie, I'm good, really let me pose! No no Annie, your tushie must be clean.. Well your ears aren't clean..
*giggle* that is too sweet. Welcome Annie, so nice to meet you.
i'm dying here. the two are super cute. annie with her light grey eye brows (eye lashes?) - what a gorgeous little thing! already envying her future family!
First, please read The Purpose and The Process below.
If you're in the Tacoma/Seattle vicinity, send me an email with a little information about your household - its residents, human and otherwise, and anything else you think might be pertinent.
The kittens featured here came to the shelter without moms, and are fostered until ready for adoption.
Every effort is made to find each kitten the best family based on it's unique personality and the adopters' home environment.
Sending them off in pairs is ideal. Click here to learn why.
Happy kittens and happy adopters are equally important.
The Process
Visits with the kittens can be scheduled once they're settled in and at least six weeks old. If a match is made, the wee ones can go home within a day or two of being spayed/neutered.
Surgery is scheduled when the kittens reach 2 months and 2 pounds.
Orphaned kittens, particularly those that are bottle-fed, grow more slowly than those with mamas, so it's not uncommon for the kittens fostered here to be 10 weeks old at the time of adoption.
All kittens will be microchipped, receive their initial vaccines and FeLV test before heading home.
Visits and adoptions are done at The Humane Society in Tacoma. All HS policies and procedures apply.
The Truth About Declawing
Most of us are aware of the inhumanity involved in declawing kitties. Learn the facts here and share them at every opportunity.
Lots of people simply don't know. It's our duty to educate them.
Thank you!
I have been volunteering and fostering kittens for the Humane Society since early 2006, and a part-time Veterinary Assistant there since June of 2010.
I am ridiculously fortunate to have the opportunity to do what fulfills me and makes me happy.
Oh that's funny. Annie doesn't look too sure about all that mushy stuff.
ReplyDeleteThat is possibly the darkest tortie I've ever seen. Gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteHow sweet! I am always amazed at how easily your girls take to the new arrivals :)
ReplyDeleteBeing and only, Annie will be in for lots of TLC.
Good job Rosie!

Rosie and Minnie never ease to amaze me. Awesome!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if Annie likes her Rosie Bath? Has she been cuddled by Minnie yet?
ReplyDeleteThat Annie is a special one.
ReplyDeleteSuch strange markings! What a gorgeous kitty x
ReplyDeleteBeautiful little girl--such a gorgeous coat. Love her eyes getting heavy as her "bath" progresses. Sleep tight, lovely--all is well!
ReplyDeleteHer cream eye shadow is very noticeable in the video - how cute is that!

Sweet Annie deserves all the love and attention that Rosie and everyone else can give her! Please sing "Annie's Song" by John Denver to her for me. :)

ReplyDeleteRosie's baths are just the medicine you need now, Annie. And I bet Minnie has some magical healing powers too!
ReplyDeleteIt's like she's Rosie's secret love child...shhhh!
ReplyDeleteIs Annie's mouth and tongue still hurting? I ask because in the video it looks like she wants to lick Rosie's ear, but doesn't.
ReplyDeleteI hope she heals all the way in the smallest possible amount of time and has no complications from her injury!
So precious! And, oh, the purring! Happy, beautiful tortie girls!
ReplyDeleteAnnie is a total sweetheart--I love the tortie love. I'm so pleased she's in your loving hands and hope she gets the most wonderful home.
ReplyDeleteAnnie, there is no place I'd rather you be until you find your forever home.

Haha, Rosie is all in her business.
