A Kitten in a Christmas Tree…

We have had a revolving door of foster kittens lately.  I have been keeping an eye on things and told Mom I should dictate the story this time to make sure she got it right.  She said she really did not need my assistance but I insisted.  I’m helpful like that.

Squirrel is still at the shelter.  She is in a quieter section with some other kittens her same age.  Squirrel has an adoption application pending so let’s hope everything works out for her!

Darryl, Sookie, Alex, and Jane are still here.  They are getting big and will be available for adoption next weekend.  Darryl is a lucky little guy – he already has a new home to go to.  The family came to visit the other day.  The girls were being a little shy but Darryl turned into Fred Astaire!  He was dancing and spinning all over the floor.  When the man picked him up Darryl kissed the guy all over and then fell sound asleep in the lady’s arms.  That sold them completely!  In addition to a mom and a dad the family has a girl and a dog and a cat.  Sounds like a great place!  Wouldn’t it be great if everyone found a home for the holidays?

Mom brought home an orange tabby named Otis.  He’s not much older than Darryl and company.  Otis came from a shelter in Brocton.  Unfortunately he came down with a cold and couldn’t participate in the Adopt-A-Thon with the rest of his group.    He likes to run around and wrestle with me so I guess he’s OK.

Mom and dad brought the Christmas tree in the other night.  I really didn’t care but the babies were all over it!  They were batting the branches and biting the needles.  The only one brave enough to try climbing it was Alex.  It’s a pretty dense tree and Alex doesn’t have any tree climbing experience, so she didn’t get far.  She thought she was hot stuff though!  Wisely, mom and dad have decided to delay decorating the tree or put the presents under it until something else draws the kitten’s attention away.  Looks like the ceramic village won’t be going up any time soon either!
