Twinkie, Cupcake and Oreo were originally with another foster mom at the humane organization I volunteered with. When they were 5 weeks old she went on vacation for a week and asked me if I could foster while she was gone. Of course I said yes and then we never heard from her again! These little guys arrived with fevers and the runs from Giardia, a bacteria found in some drinking water. Oh! What fun!	Hey! Cupcake's awake for once!
Cupcake in my purse.	We spent over a month dealing with the Giardia and then Sammy arrived...with ringworm! So here I was with 9 kittens and 5 adult cats battling ringworm. (By the way, I got it too.) Welcome to the world of rescue! Treatments for the ringworm and Giardia were going well so off to adoption day we go. Oreo (no pic available) was adopted the first time out! She went with a lady who was looking for a companion for her cat. Oreo is doing very well at his new home.
Cupcake was adopted to a young couple in Charlottesville. They were very cooperative as this operation took several weeks to accomplish working around everyone's schedules. Twinkie is the original beanie baby because whichever way you positioned her she would sleep. Even upside down! She was adopted by a daycare family and now lives with Tortilla.	Basket kitties!

What is truly amazing to me is that all of the adoptive families were understanding about the kittens health problems. They accepted that these babies were rescued from bad situations and even continued with the treatments I had started. Giardia can be a very serious problem and cleaning up yucky poop all day is not a fun time! I have been very fortunate to find wonderful homes for all my babies. I feel very blessed.
