Dimple & Cream have found their home

It seemed odd to me that Dimple and Cream would have no interested adopters, given their unique colouration.

A few weeks ago, I ran into my upstairs neighbour, Araceli, at the recycling bin. I asked about her cat and told her about my latest fosters. I asked her to let me know if she knows anyone who might be interested in adopting them. I texted her a picture and almost immediately she gave me the name of someone.

I forwarded the info to the rescue and waited. After hearing nothing, I started to get concerned that the kittens would end up back at the shelter when I went away for Thanksgiving. I reached out to my contact and asked her to look into it. Apparently Caitlin had put that they would might allow the cats outside and so immediately disqualified them without an interview. 🤨

I asked them to interview Caitlin, that she may just need to be educated. Turns out they loved Caitlin and we immediately arranged for a face-to-face so she could meet the kittens.

Well the meeting couldn't have gone better. Caitlin and David are real cat people, he showed me his former boys (two orange tabby brothers!) and the kittens were actually more interested in them both than other visitors I've had. 

David is a skilled carpenter/handyman and talked of putting up cat shelves. I was so pleased that the babies were going to such a good home. 

I miss them already, but it's nice to get my home back again.

Have a great life babies!

Dimple & Cream still in residence


Dimple and Cream are still in residence at the CatBnB. They've been spayed and are waiting to be adopted but at almost 4 mos, they are starting to look more like mini adults. They're eyes turned green and their bodies are proportioned like adults. They're still small and have a ways to grow yet. 

Dimple is a lover. She just wants to be on my lap at all times. She starts purring at the slightest provocation. She's also the feisty one, she's going to make sure you know she's in charge.
Cream prefers to keep a safe distance right up until she sees a clear lap that she doesn't have to fight her sister for. She's fine being close but not that close. She still loves a good chin scratch.

They're both the sweetest, but I'm ready to get my spare room back and see them off to a good home themselves.
