10th Blogoversary!





Hello everyone! It is actually our 10th Blogoversary! We sure haven't posted much over the last few years, but we try and stop by if we see that a kitty has crossed over and leave a few words on the blogs.

This is Smokey. He was a foster failure from 13 years ago, when we took in 4 foster kitties who were all very ill. They were about 9 months old when we took them in. It took a long time to get them over their horrible diarrhea, and get their Herpes-1 virus under control. They all had a messy eye on the right side, except for Obi. We are foster failures because we end up falling in love with the kitties and keeping them.

And we have another group of foster failures, where we have 4 more kitties who are now about 2 1/2 years old. We need to update our blog. It is on Maw's list of stuff to do.

Thanks for stopping by! Hugs to all of you!

All of us at Forty Paws.

Happy, Happy, So Very Happy 10th Blogoversary! Sweet Smokey looks very loved. We call 'em Foster Fortunates because while fosters might be someone else's loss, they are always our gains. We're humans to five Foster Fortunates! Have a wonderful weekend!

Mr Buttons was a Foster Failure with Miss Fitz. Thanks so much for the support when Mr Buttons had to go over the Bridge. It was very sudden and he was a big part of our family. We miss him terribly as do so many as he was our official greeter. He never met a stranger only new friends.
Purrs dear friends
