Where Have I been?

Busy, busy, busy, that's where. I have had tons of Real Estate work to do since my return from the field trip early this month. And on the way home, I picked up my new little foster family. Since they are growing, I am beginning to have some extra moments, once again, so I though this would be a good time to introduce them to the world. They have taken all and then some, of my mornings, lunches and evenings, but they are well worth it. They are rescue kittens with their mother, who is a very, very good mother. For at least four weeks, I walked with her saying, "Please take me to the babies. Please show me the babies. Where are those babies?" And then, she brought us the babies.

Without further ado, meet Angel-Baby, who finally, finally brought her babies to us to care for.

What a sweet cat this is. She is calm and quiet, and grateful. She loves her new digs.

This is Crinkle on the left and Silverado on the right. Sweet kittens, they are, but are afraid of real quick movements, still. They are getting there. Just this morning Silverado climbed my leg...granted she was after a little green mouse I was holding, but still - progress is progress. Crinkle, well Crinkle is a big boy, but a scaredy cat. All that girth and no...., well, backbone. Yes, that's it, backbone. He's coming around.

This is E.F. Kitten. Because, when E.F. Kitten talks, everybody listens. Most likely to get into trouble. Most likely to cuddle up to me, too.

And finally, we have Piper. What an adorable little minx Piper is. Piper is most likely to find the teeniest, tiniest hiding place in the world.

Even though, given my druthers, I would not encounter kitty litter first thing in the morning, it has been such a heartwarming adventure to foster this precious family. Now that they are older, I am beginning to have more spare time, more time to come home to Active Rain.

And I know, I owe you all pictures of DeSoto Falls. I'm getting there. In the meantime, between Real Estate and fostering, my times is still a little limited. (See above!)
