My heart (and my hands) have never been so full.
These four have truly put me through an emotional roller coaster but I wouldn’t change it for the world. From the day maintenance came to find me and tell me there was a litter out back to sitting there and counting mama and her 4...5....6(!!!) kittens. Feeding them over the days and watching them play. Getting ahold of the traps and then not being able to find them and watching every local page and shelter websites (even driving down to Carson Animal Shelter) to look for them. Finally finding them outside again and catching these four. Staying up all night with them so they weren’t afraid. Trying to have a cuddle sleepover with Charlie the night after her spay (even though she ditched me at 4am and decided she’d rather hang out under the couch). Seeing them finally PLAY for the first time. I don’t think I’ve ever cried so much and felt so much love. Today they head across the country with my superhero of a mom to their forever homes and I couldn’t be more excited for them. They’re going to be so loved and cherished and no one deserves that more than them. “Oh Charlie Girl” the feisty little hissing tough cookie 🍪 who melts into your arms and is the sweetest little angel. You take after your tough mama and take such good care of all of your brothers. I can’t wait for you to live a life full of love and feeling safe forever. You love watching Toffee and Brûlée play and I can’t wait for you to grow into a happy, lively little kitty. “Gus Gus Gusaroni” you, my buddy, can make the loudest fuss when you want a snack, a toy, or an adventure. When I first saw you in the bushes I called you Brave because even though you’re a tiny little bug you were always one of the first to waddle on over for a yummy snack. You tiny but mighty little mouse 🐭 couldn’t be any cuter and your spunk and love will bring the most laughter and love to your new family. It’s your turn to take care of Charlie now and make sure she’s as brave as you.
Jax (aka Jackson when you’re in trouble- which is often 😂). No one will ever believe you were feral to begin with. (cont. below)
