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, usually at 8-10 weeks of age.
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 neutered.
Surgery is scheduled when the kittens reach 2 months and 2 pounds. They will also 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.
Great purrings. I miss that since I've been catless for 30+ months. Thanks much.
ReplyDeleteDarby has gotten too round to reach the center of his own back ... I may have to drop him by for a touch up.
ReplyDeleteThat made me LOL.
DeleteAwwww, what a lovefest! It's good to see the girls will be all clean and polished up for their new family!
ReplyDeleteIS Patsy lying and rolling all over Noreen? XD
ReplyDeleteThat is some serious purring going on there. I think this is the first time I've been able to get a good look at Noreen's face.
ReplyDeleteOh my bad...I just went back through Noreen's posts and realized I'd forgotten that adorable "Cute as a bug" video.
DeleteOh my. She IS a good student. And I love the surprise ending ;-)
ReplyDeleteI had no clue that Noreen was hiding in that purrlicious pile of grooming!
DeleteOh my gosh, they are all just so cute!
ReplyDeleteSuch a good student. Noreen says, "I'm not just a good pillow, I want lickin's too!"
ReplyDeleteOh, my goodness, listen to those purrs! So much cuteness!
ReplyDeleteSo sweet! What adorable kitties.
ReplyDeleteI thought Noreen was more like "agh, guys, get off me, can't a girl get some sleep around here...oh hey lickin's"
ReplyDeleteLOL.. it took 23 seconds for me to realize there were three kitties in that video :)
ReplyDeleteI love the hamming for the camera at the end.
Oh squeeeeeeee!
ReplyDeleteI was clueless until Noreen made her big entry!
ReplyDeleteI love the purring...it sounds so deep and resonant.
Marbles has a lovely but softer, wheezy purr.
