Adopt don’t shop!

kitten bowl

I’ve been watching Hallmark’s KITTEN BOWL II and it’s SO FREAKING CUTE! OMG! ❀

All of the kitten participants have already been adopted so yaaay!

I started fostering cats when I was fourteen. I renovated a chicken barn into a cat shelter when I lived in Effingham, Illinois and fostered over 90 cats and kittens while working with the Effingham County Humane Society. I loved it so much and wish I had a spare room to foster! I had cats with terminal illnesses like FeLV and FIV, but who could go to forever homes if they were with other ill cats or going to be only cats.

I miss fostering a lot! It’s harder to do now since I travel a bit here and there and it’s hard enough to find someone to really take excellent care of my two babes.

Who has adopted pets? Tell me about yours! πŸ™‚

    My dog Piper was abandoned with her siblings but they all have homes now. My three cats (Boop, Jade, Marble) were all strays that were brought in to our local clinic. Jade had a broken leg that needed to be amputated but that doesn’t stop him. It’s wonderful that Bliss and Bella found a great home.

    I didn’t know you lived in Illinois at one point! I’m from there! That’s a great story about you converting the barn for kitties. I rescued my first dog, a beautiful red Doberman named Winnie. And right now I just bought a retired race horse. But he wasn’t technically a rescue case, but he did need another career. Here’s the story of my pup. And my whole blog is about my adventures with my new love, the TB Knight. πŸ™‚
