I forget that I can share things. 😂

I forget that I can share things.  😂  Not quite used to FB yet.  This made my day about a week ago - her petfinder profile was SO sad!  Shadow and I wanted to foster her, but there's no need now!  She's gone HOME!  😃

Anyone have experience with feral cats?

Anyone have experience with feral cats? I need help with one!

I've trapped a feral mama cat to be spayed, but then I found out that she was nursing two kittens. I've been told that if she is spayed her milk will dry up. I believe that the kittens are about 3 weeks old so that's kind of early. I had plans to take get her spayed on this coming Wednesday - which would be no problem except for her milk drying up. I have nowhere to keep her for an extended period of time so that she can continue nursing (she is in a cage right now) and I fear that if I let her go I'll never catch her again!

I am having a good day so far. 😃

I am having a good day so far. 😃 Husky-mutt is going to his foster home today... in addition we're transporting another foster with him. Woohoo! Now, if only I could figure out what to do with feral mama cat and her kittens for 3 weeks... can't spay while she's nursing! I feel good & productive! 😃

Thanks to the AMAZING...

Thanks to the AMAZING Lisa at Semper Fi the starving husky-mutt is going to have a foster home that's not me. 😃 Also, I've badgered my neighbors into fixing a kitten they want to keep, and I've trapped a feral mama in the 'hood. Feeling much better tonight. 🙂

I am disappointed in my friends.

I am disappointed in my friends. I can't believe that none of you have offered to help a puppy - even if it's a temporary foster with vet care paid. Honestly, we're in a sad day and age when people are so selfish. I'm a single mom with a child and limited income and I give my time, money, and support. What is your fucking excuse?  YES, YOU!

Scar, a 3-month-old "Husky." I'd say chances are that he's a mutt with the possibility of Husky in him.

I need my friends to work some magic...

I need my friends to work some magic... I just told a friend that I'd help find a home for a husky puppy who probably needs some vet care. It has to be out by this weekend. 🙁 Unfortunately, I'm up to my ears in dogs so I don't need to bring him here! Anyone interested in fostering / adopting?  HELP!

Foster puppies were spayed / neutered today.

Foster puppies were spayed / neutered today.  Poor babies - they are not playing this evening!  🙁

Getting close to being adoptable!  Any takers?  😉

I have had a LOOONG day.

I have had a LOOONG day. Gotta be up early to take the foster puppies for their spaying / neutering.

Baking some chicken - that and garden fresh tomatoes is dinner. I'm tired!

I like to recycle...

I like to recycle... I've got a bunch of glass that I've been hoarding since the bins at the mall and Winn-Dixie don't accept it. But can you guess where does? TARGET. The site below is how I found out. I called Target and confirmed. SWEET! 😃

Boobs

For the second time in my life I'm growing some. The first time was when I was knocked up. I am NOT knocked up now - for the record. I can't say that I am entirely disappointed with my newly-grown ta-tas, but they sure do hurt. In fact - they hurt like a motherfucker. It's sad, but I cringe at the thought of a squeeze from my main squeeze. 😩

I don't know why this is suddenly happening... I'm almost 28 years old. You would think that by my age all of your developing would be done. My mother has a theory that since I had my son so young I am now finishing going through puberty - 10 years later. I don't think so, but hey, it's a thought. I have gained 5 pounds or so in the last year or two, but I don't think I'm getting fat. I'm sure all of that was not in my boobs, either. I feel... womanly, and curvy. I kind of like it. I'm not trying to lose it.

I blame the weight-gain on Shaun, though. He feeds me. I halfway wonder if he did that on purpose... Anyway, mah boobs are not HUGE or anything. I guess most people wouldn't notice. But I can tell because they feel heavier, and look fuller, and fall all out of my bras that used to fit. It's bizarre. Anyone else ever have this happen? And if so - do you have an explanation for it? Before I go - I am on the Mirena IUD... have been for 2-ish years now. I've read that birth control can affect your mammaries, but after 2+ years? I just find this weird. 👀 Ladies, let's talk about boobs! Tell me what's going on, please!

Me and Shaun are putting up a fence today...

Me and Shaun are putting up a fence today... no more neighbors hanging out and littering my yard!  Woohoo!  😃

P.S.  Anyone want a dog?  😉

I need fewer dogs!

I need fewer dogs! If you or anyone you know is looking to add a new member to the family, please think adoption first! Also, keep in mind that fostered dogs usually have a head-start on training and house manners! 😉

My vacation ends this weekend...

My vacation ends this weekend and my sleeping schedule is all backwards. Guess I'm staying awake until bedtime tomorrow - heading towards zombie-land for sure. 😂

I just heard a cat sneeze...

I just heard a cat sneeze in the other room, followed by a "bless you" from Shadow...  🙂

Um... me & Bernard...

Um... me & Bernard, yeah... we didn't do it.  @_@

Got my hair cut.

Got my hair cut. Feels so good! Woohoo! 😃😃😃

So... the kitten just died in my arms.

So... the kitten just died in my arms. 🙁 He wouldn't stop crying and nothing would soothe him. Then he just quit breathing. Wow. I knew he didn't look good, but I was hopeful. 🙁

It's a zoo around here!

Besides the 2 new foster pups I'm babysitting 2 cats for a friend who's going on vacation for a week. One cat is fine, but the other is a very sick kitten with some antibiotics. I really hope he makes it. 🙁

Newest Foster Kids:

ADOPTED 12/16/2010 - This is Buster, a 6 month old dachshund mix. He's an awesome little guy!

ADOPTED 07/30/11 - This is Pixie, a year old Cocker Spaniel / Poodle mix. She's very cute, and smart, too. She caught on to the house-training very quickly. She LOVES to snuggle and be held. Great with kids, not so much with cats (yet). PREFERS TO BE THE ONLY DOG.

I've gotten two new foster doggies in the last 2 weeks...

I've gotten two new foster doggies in the last 2 weeks; 8 dogs is my max! Only 1/2 here are actually mine. 

These two are still pretty young and so far they are both doing well. Pictures soon (when I'm caught up on housework!) ❤
