Jade is a female cat with lovely green eyes that had been living at one of our feeding stations in North Central Regina. She was targeted early in our spring trapping blitz, as it was clear she was pregnant. However, we didn't get to her in time, and she carried her litter to full term. Thankfully, we were then able to trap her and catch the kittens, only a few days old at the time, and place the whole family in foster care with Ken. Jade is a wonderful momma, and her babies have thrived. Yesterday Michelle was able to visit with them, and get some photos of the babies, although Jade was camera shy. We had first thought that Jade was feral, and had planned on releasing her back to her territory as soon as the kittens were 4 or 5 weeks old and she was spayed. However, she has made amazing progress at Ken's, so she will remain there for a while longer, while he assesses her chances for taming down. The kittens will be available for adoption in about three weeks. All but one of them are Manx!
