So, first I’m going to share the pictures of the kittens who are currently in the foster room, and then I’ll explain why those are the fosters at the moment rather than someone you hoped for/ expected.
On Sunday, I took Angelo and Mariette to Petsmart, and I brought home with me…
Tricki!
And also…
Do you recognize the ears?
That’s right, it’s Orlando!
And Dennis was all – “?”
I don’t know if he actually remembers Orlando or not, but he wasn’t too phased by the new tenants.
Yesterday I left the house early in the morning, and when I came home, I had the new guy.
This is Thomas. He’s about 9 months old. (The ceiling fan startled him, and he growled at it. Silly boy!)
He’s very sweet and friendly and laid-back. He’s gotten hissy with Orlando a few times, but that’s because Orlando can’t keep his nose to himself, so it was a “Dude, you need to back off a little” hiss. Another day or so, I’m pretty sure they’ll be best friends.
Point of interest: Thomas is my very first polydactl foster! He’s got extra toes on both his front feet.
The story is this – Thomas just needed a place to stay for three weeks until he can get his last shot. Initially I was going to put him in with Dennis, Angelo, and Mariette, but after thinking about it, I suggested that Mariette and Angelo go to Petsmart, and I’d bring Tricki and Livia home with me to give them a break.
BUT, as it turned out, someone MIGHT be interested in adopting Livia. So rather than bring her home and then have to take her back (or having them assume that she’s been adopted), I opted to leave her there just in case. If she gets adopted, I’ll throw a ticker-tape parade! If she doesn’t, I’ll take Orlando back to Petsmart and bring Livia home.
PS: It was one year ago that I brought Khaleesi home. And once again I’m annoyed by Fred stealing away my second foster room for his office. The NERVE of that man.

Stinkerbelle sure does love her Tommy.
She doesn’t seem to be too crazy about ME, though. I make her nervous.
Tommy keeps Stinkerbelle’s ears clean.
He’s such a good boy.
