Hi everyone, sorry I haven't been around much, and posting as much....also sorry to any unanswered emails and PM's I am working on it.....we picked up a pregnant cat from the pound to foster that had been left in an apartment alone when her family moved out, she had no food or water for about a week until the landlord found her. Yesterday she blessed us with four gorgeous babies.
Here is Winnie, and her troop of 4, so far I know one is a boy and one is a girl, but haven't had a chance to check out the rest, they are squirmers!!!
Hugs,
Krista
Apple Dumpling DesignsAwwwwwwwww....cute!!! Skippy just had 5!!! Why do people just leave animals behind or dump them...GRRRRRRRR!!! Makes me so angry!!! Winnie is very lucky to have you taking care of her and her little brood. They are adorable....can hardly wait to see MORE pics.
Hugs
Waggle BearsWhat a sweet picture of mom and babies. They are so tiny and cute. Winnie looks plenty comfortable with you. You are their angel, Krista, and for so many other animals.
I just don't know how people could abandon their animals without food and water. If they could do that without contacting a shelter or your rescue group, I doubt that Winnie was treated very well at all. You're going to keep Winnie and the kitties, aren't you.

Ohhh they are so sweet! What a kind hearted person you are! Not many people would want to foster a cat, let alone a pregnant cat. Yeah for you!!
I cant understand how anybody could possibly leave their pet behind...arrrghhhh, so frusterating to hear these kinds of stories, but I sure am glad it has had a happy ending.
A very Happy Mother's Day to kitty!
Bear Hugs,
Kim

She seems really relaxed and friendly.... and doing a great job as a Mom
....good for you Krista...I am glad that you are there for her and the kitties.
Nothing more dusgusting than people that are mean to animals in my book.
DoodlebearsAwwwwwww! How wondeerful that you not only adopted Winnie but you now have all her babies too. She looks a lovely cat with het black nose. What would these abandoned animals do without people like you Krista. Winnie and babies are lucky to have found you.
Hugs Jane. 
Real Deal BearsAwww sooo cute, no wonder you have your hands full

Bear Paws by RoxanneYou are such an angel!! 
Thanks everyone, I am quite the proud momma.....I saw your babies to Shantell and they sure are cuties too!!
Winnie will stay with us until all the babies are old enough to be adopted to carefully screened homes forever homes, and then she will stay with us until her carefully screened forever home is found as well, however long it takes she will have a place with us....but....nobody will be going anywhere until the kittens are 8 weeks old and Winnie is spayed!!! I would love to keep all of them, but with my house hold it is pretty full already, if I kept all that came through my doors I wouldn't have room left to help other like Winnie.It is hard letting them go, but so rewarding when you get emails and pictures from the adoptive homes telling you how great they are doing and how awesome they are. And my door is always open to any that are adopted out from my house that don't work out, they can always come back to try again, I actually had that happen with one of the momma cats from last year, she found her home, but the other cat didn't like her, so she came back here to me, and stayed a bit and then the most perfect home came along for her, so I guess the first home just wasn't meant to be.
Hugs,
Krista
That's so great! How cool that you do that for cats! The kitties are sooo cute!
Posts: 3,540Awwwhhhh Thank heavens the landlord found her in time!!
Its very irresponsible that they didn't at least take her to a shelter, or leave her outside. 
I realize how hard it is to move and get into apartments with pets, and that lives and circumstances can change....but to leave your baby locked inside an empty house ~ that's just NOT acceptable
Well done for fostering her Krista :clap:
Awww what a really touching story and so glad it turned out well, they all look to be doing good thanks to you Krista
Warm wishes

Thanks everyone....Momma is doing well, and she is such a love, she lets us hold her babies already without batting an eye..they are starting to get around a bit and crawl all over mom, I will get some more pictures soon...we now know that we have 2 girls and two boys who need names....so far we have panda and Hemi, but need another boy and girl name....so any suggestions would be great. I am hoping with her being so good with us touching the babies being handled will become second nature to them and they won't have a shy bone in their bodies, which makes them so much easier to adopt when they have no fear of humans and actually seek out their company.
Hugs,
Krista

Can she have a "little chat" with Skippy? She needs a bit of encourgement in that department. :crackup: :crackup: :crackup:
Although the kittens seems quite happy to come check me out...until a big ol' paw scoops them up...reminds me of some 1960-70's game show.
