Molly and her beautiful babies




Some of you may have read a post from two days ago about a little family of a momma cat and her five kittens that needed foster care. Molly was dumped on the side of the higway in Sedley, taken in by the kind workers of the seed plant, and had her babies two days later. Tonight, Doug, one of the people who saved Molly, and gave her a soft bed and food and water, brought her into the city so that we can offer her and the kittens a better life. Molly and the 3 week old kittens are comfortable ensconced in my bathroom tonight and will go to their foster home with Sandy very soon. So far Molly has nursed the kittens twice already, and it's obvious she is a wonderful mother. All of the kittens are perky, with just-opened eyes, and round bellies. Molly has some frost bite on her ears, and ear mites, but she seems to otherwise be in good health. And such a sweet and friendly cat! Stay tunes for more photos. I think these guys will quickly become blog favorites.

I can't believe the kitten season is starting so soon after this brutal winter. I guess we must have had some warm days in December and january!!!! If this is an indication of what is to come... brace yourselves.
