[Vision2020] OOPS! Caturday (November 17, 2012)

[deb]

In the Original message it said "As long as a cat's spitit is in the same room as the bones, you can bring 'em back with love and care". While a cat's "spitit" is pretty powerful ( I have one that can intimidate a doberman with "spitit"), I actually meant "spirit". Not being able to touch type is sometimes a problem... I CAN type 100 words a minute with no errors using 5 fingers and a thumb (three fingers and a thumb on one hand, two fingers on the other) though I still have a full compliment of digits.

I think it's just time to put me self to bed after two long days with WomensWorks, and a cleanup day to go! I think RavenCroft might do WomensWorks again--what a kick!! Tiring and worth every minute!

  Glad they made it---lovely little kittens! I have a dear friend who says "As long as a cat's spitit is in the same room as the bones, you can bring 'em back with love and care". I think she is right!

    Kittens survive coyote attack, find new home


    Orphaned after their mother died while protecting them from a coyote, four starving kittens were rescued and nursed back to health by the CATS Cradle Shelter in Fargo, N.D. Now all four kittens have been adopted together and are learning their way around their new home.

    Found beside their mother’s body in July, the kittens were just 4 weeks old and in poor condition.


    "We were pretty stunned by the condition that they were in — they were emaciated and hair was falling out, which is a sign of starvation, so we immediately took them," shelter director Gail Ventzke told KVRR. "They should be bouncy, furry, happy little kittens and they look like mice, and they were just so small."


    The smallest of the kittens was Daisy, a tiny kitten with bulging eyes and thinning fur who weighed less than 6 ounces. At her age, Daisy should have weighed more than a pound.


    The "coyote kittens," as they came to be known, were put on a special diet to help them gain weight. Shelter workers said the foursome were messy eaters and that Daisy often looked like she’d taken a swim in her formula.


    By the time they reached 11 weeks of age, Daisy and her siblings were unrecognizable as the emaciated kittens CATS Cradle had taken in. She’s still the smallest of the litter, but Daisy is healthy and continues to put on weight. At her 11-week weigh-in she was 1.54 pounds.


    During their recovery, the coyote kittens found new friends in foster mom Lori Lang and her English sheepdog, Romeo, who "stepped up to surrogate parent the little orphans."


    And it looks like they’ve found a permanent home with Romeo and the rest of the Lang family.


    CATS Cradle recently made a Facebook update saying, "They will be sharing their home with their foster canine brother Romeo forever. Lori and her husband have decided that they just cannot part with them and they are now officially adopted."
