photo probs...
dani and suzanne... i've got two issues with giving you pics of the little squirmy weasels. a, i have no photo resizing software, still! dani, any FREE recomendations? and 2, its very difficult getting pics of little ones curled up in the back of a dark kitty-den when i dont want to piss off mama with a flash... but we've come up with a name for mama!
EOWYN. hehe. i had to get a LOTR reference in there. she's all white, with grey markings on her head that resemble a helmet, and she's fiercly protective and loyal to her babies. she'd make one hell of a shield-maiden :)

baaaaabies!!!
not the human kind, no... not yet! the kitty kind :)
i stopped into my local shelter to ask about fostering kittens. as many of you know, they frequently get nearly-newborn babies dropped off that need to be syringe-fed for the first few weeks, with 24-hour care, and i have LOTS of experience with that. the lady behind the desk practically JUMPED with joy... they had a girl in the back in labor at that very moment, and they needed somewhere to send her and her litter!!
i went back today to pick them up... a beautiful healthy litter of 4. one black, three white with black caps. pretty sure 2 males and 2 females, but i'm not certain, its still a little... difficult to tell heh.
more later, the littlest girl is having trouble nursing and i have to frequently re-attach her. she tells me she needs help by squalking non-stop :) (mama's still recovering from some injuries, so she's not all too helpful yet.)
tomorrow: the story of mama and how she came to be at Save-A-Pet!

one is silver...
in an effort to make new friends (and definatly keep the old!) i'm a participant in SEVERAL swaps going on at the moment :)
- the pirate booty swap, hosted by the lovely nipperknits!
- a candy swap, mariko's brainchild
- sockapaloooza (is that enough o's?)
- sp.... 7? i forget what number we're on!
i'm too darn sick to hunt down and include links, i'm sure you all know where to find them.
lets just hope i can maintain momentum, and meet all these deadlines! i'm a very deadline challenged girl, maybe this is my way of testing a new resolve to change!
back to sleep for me.
