Who the heck am I?

I am one of many. A lover of animals. A student of the timeless lessons of compassion. A woman who maintains her child-like curiosity, who believes everything and everyone starts out inherently good, and even with rough spots and life challenges, everyone should get a fair chance.

In that vein, it just seemed like the right and natural choice to take in these cats. When fostering and ultimately finding their Forever Homes, I'm just looking for someone who will give love, safety, shelter and attention to these beautiful babies. I'm not asking for anything from whomever takes these guys in - no money, I'll help transport them if needed, nothing extra. I'm just looking for the right match for these kittens.

Again, Rue and Lil' Bro have been to the veterinarian, have their shots up to date, and are spayed and neutered respectively. Sammy's spaying and shots have already been paid for and scheduled.

All I'm asking for is the comfort and consistency of a Forever Home for them.

I've been given the moniker of Crazy Cat Lady and you know what? That's okay! I am crazy about these kitties - apparently, foster parents are advised, "don't get attached!". To which I ask, how could I *not* get attached? If I'm to provide them with the care needed to ensure they leave my home social, adjusted and healthy, the very foundation of that is Love. And Love is specific. These kittens are loved.

When placed, I pray they get love above and beyond, over and over!
