Babies are here!

Thursday, June 10th, 2010

Our first babies of the season are here, and they’re real cuties!  Mewse, Figaro and Oliver were rescued from Airlies St. at the end of May, and will be ready for adoption in a few more weeks.  In the meantime, here they are bouncing around in their playpen:

Of course, we have many other babies available for adoption right now.  Here are some of them playing with one of our volunteers:

Please call us at 223-6652 to arrange an adoption appointment.  You won’t be sorry ;)

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

Yogi, BooBoo, Bubbles, Gary, Calie, and McGee are all waiting for forever homes here at Craig Street Cats.

A Kendle of Kittens

Sunday, October 11th, 2009

Several kendles, actually.  15 kittens call Craig Street Cats home, right now.

It’s been quite awhile since I introduced you to any of the babies around here, so I thought I should probably do that ;)

The Big House

The Big House

This is the big kitten pen, front and center in my living room.  It is currently home to 9 kittens, from 4 different litters.  The babies have lots of toys and hammocks in their big house, and they get “walk about” time twice a day.  They really need homes so that they can walk about all day.

Sitting in the Corner

Sitting in the Corner

This little guy has claimed the curly toy as his own.  He sits on the base so that nobody else can play with it — until he gets bored and moves onto the next toy.  He was found, abandoned with his mother, when new owners took possession of a house in the north end.

Dumpster Baby

Dumpster Baby

This little calico and her sister were found in a dumpster in August.

The Tinies

The Tinies

The Tinies are the last 2 of a litter of 5 from the Clayton colony.  These two are about 8 weeks old, and weigh less than a pound apiece.  They are not out of the woods, yet.  Both of these babies are seriously under weight.  By 8 weeks they should weigh close to 2 pounds each.  Although they are eating well, and getting the best care we can give them, the Tinies may not make it.

Fun in the Hammock

Of course, walk about time is all about play, and the hammocks are a favorite place to cuddle and wrestle.

In addition to the 11 kittens shown here, there are 3 special needs babies with cerebellar hypoplasia.  That’s the cat equivalent of cerebral palsy.  They are great, cuddly kittens, but they have trouble walking.  All 3 are able to get around just fine, but they sometimes fall over on their sides, or do face plants when they try to do things quickly.  They will make great pets for people who can understand how special they are.
