What happened to the mama?

Thanks for asking.
Right now she's recovering from being spade (and missing her kittens but doing fine). Incredibly, a neighbor just down the road from us has stepped up and decided to adopt her. They'll be perfect for her and the big plus...she won't have to go to the shelter (kittens are way more adoptable than a two year old).

That's great to hear. Yes, adult cats are harder to get adopted so that is wonderful of your neighbor. I was just looking at the pic of her and she looks very sweet.

Our current cat was an adult when we adopted her (two years old). She's 11 now and I hope she lives a very long time. We love her and I know she love us too.

PS - who knows how long she would have been in the shelter if we wouldn’t have adopted her, or if she would’ve ever made it out.

Our last cat was an unwanted 3yr old rescue...she was wonderful and lived to 19.

More people need to do what we do; adopt the adults. The kittens (and puppies) will almost always be adopted.

Been a great pet for many years! No messy accidents on the floor which is a big plus! Just need to wash occasionally and let him play in the garden couple times a week.

The puppies are almost 7 weeks old, but they are full of attitude.

It's looks like it's snowing in the East Bay!

That’s only the half of it. Aurora has lost most of her beautiful coat post puppy weaning. Celeste just started. And, Faith is loosing her coat in fistfuls (I think it’s a sympathetic thing). I’m sure our neighbors aren’t happy with us.

Cheating a bit on this one, as they're not mine, but belong to an alpaca farm about 20 miles away that I drive by once in a while.

Alpacas are a bit like mini llamas and definitely have a cute factor to them. These have gotten their summer haircuts.

JJ 911SC · 07-24-2023, 05:00 PM

Let me in, let me in... Such a teaser, when you go open the door, she take off...

ShopVac · 07-25-2023, 12:18 PM

You know - shepherds can make it snow in the backyard too. This was yesterday's brushing...after the weekend brushing 2 days before.

And I'll have you know, my user name fully checks out.

She looks like she just caught you out of the shower in your birthday suit.

Thanks! We don't know for sure but think maybe Pit/Catahoula Leopard mix. We met the mom and she was definitely mostly Pit.
