Shea and Butters

Meet Shea and Butters! They are our newest foster kitties from the local shelter. Shea has been at the shelter since May and looks like a Maine Coon mix and has some pretty bad flea dermatitis. Her head and neck is very scabby. She also seems to have a bit of a cold. She is set up in a large crate in the loft and the gate is up at the bottom of the stairs to keep the other kitties downstairs. I let her out and hang out with her often. She loves to sleep behind my head on the love seat.Butters is a Siamese mix who was dumped at the shelter gate, after hours, in a box with 2 litters of kittens. She is set up in the master bathroom for now. Who can resist a pair of blue eyes? With Necklace using the foster room, we've seemed to run out of room for fosters. We were only supposed to get Butters, but I couldn't turn down helping another kitty escape death and have a second chance at a great life, so we're making do with what room we have. Luckily, it's only for a short time, so we will all manage!

Butters has the most amazing blue eyes - so big - she is a beauty. We love Shea too - she has a very pretty face and her markings match so well.

They are both beautiful. And those amazing blue eyes. Some new owner is gonna be very lucky indeed to be able to share a home with either one of these gerls.

Shea and Butters are beautiful and so lucky to have found themselves in you loving foster care! I hope they are adopted into the safe and wonderful homes they deserve :-)

My Molly was also found in a box (a long long time ago) discarded with her kittens. I just don't understand some people.

They are both beautiful!!!! meowm says she would take Butters in a heartbeat if she lived closer! Those eyes have mesmerized her!

Marg said...

Those eyes of Butters are something else. Glad to hear that Gretchen didn't get kicked out of the foster room. It is just amazing how many cats you can fit in one house if you try really hard. Too funny. That is the way it is here sometimes. Cats in every room. But it works. You are terrific to go to all that trouble. We know the cats appreciate it a lot. Have a great day.
