    A few months ago, I posted a long comment about bottle baby (and pooper extraordinaire) Sally, and her little kitty friends, Cal and Jules. A lot has happened since then, including a week-long bout of dehydration that required me to inject IV fluid into the backs of the 200g tigers, but I'm proud to announce that all three are happy, healthy, and as of yesterday, in their forever homes. Lucky for me, Cal is staying with the family, and I get to watch him for an extra week before he goes home with my cousins. Anyway, here's a small collection of terrible photos in honor of my all-time favorite foster kittens. Enjoy :')

      They look amazing! Good job being a cat mother. Expect getting foster kittens again?

        Thank you! Yes, I've been at it a while and I love doing it. Having said that, I think I'm going to retire from fostering bottle babies (at least on my own) and stick to the ones that can eat and go to the bathroom by themselves. There's just not enough sleep and too much stress that they're going to die. (I'm putting this in writing so I can read it next month when I get a request to foster more bottle babies)

      Those pictures are fantastic! I especially love the one of the little tiger sneak attacking their littermate. Thanks for sharing them, I can never get enough kitten pics.

    This is still my cat Smokey. Every time I see him I need to tell him how much I love him, in the most insanely dumb voice. My kids roll their eyes. My wife is jealous. But it doesn’t make me stop,...

      Tell him I love him too. Also, Smokey is a great name for a cat.
