JULY 15: Blog the Change for Animals!

Blog the Change

               January 15th, April 15th, July 15th and October 15th are Blog the Change for Animals days! Highlight those who help animals, give, blog, tweet, or do whatever you can think of to encourage others to care for our furry friends!


Here is one woman who has done that...sometimes all alone. She tirelessly cares for dozens and dozens of feral cats that come to her little farm home. She catches those she can to neuter them then releases them. She does everything possible to tame the little ones for adoption. She is a talented photographer and has a blog that 'tells it like it is' in the feral world. Some posts are cute, some are funny, some are sad. But she tells about their lives in hopes of bringing light to their need and love in the form of a home for them. 
Chriss...thank you for your beautiful, real life blog and your unending efforts to change the lives of the kitties you so love. 

Chriss posts on her blog regularly. This is the July 14th post. Please visit and encourage her efforts! She has a donation button to right. Those who work tirelessly loving others get tired sometimes! Send your kudos her way!






Two tabby feral cats, just relaxing and napping after breakfast. This is their most contented time.


I took too much time off for my birthday, probably, so I haven't posted much since the weekend. It happens. The kitties still get attention every day but I don't always schedule time to take pictures of them. This is also coyote season and I worry about how many cats we will lose. The most heartbreaking, of course, are the ones that were tamed as feral kittens and put up for adoption - but nobody adopted them. We lose some of those precious pets every year. :( It's so sad. I do what I can but I can't guard them 24/7 - if only I could. I wish there were more homes because I have several kitties that could be adopted and kept safe instead of living in danger among the colony.

IT'S FURBABY FRIDAY!!
And we have the cutest pair of kitties, Chancellor and Roscoe!
Their Dad, Allen,is a wonderful photographer and just opened his Etsy shop in May.
He will receive 50 FREE TWEETS this next week!


We recently went to our usual shelter to adopt ONE cat. And there he was; Chancellor....a done deal.....or so we thought! While waiting in line to fill out the forms, the long time proprietor and owner asked if we had seen the note on the cage.
"Which note?," I asked.
"The one that said - 'These two cats must be adopted together'", she replied.
"But why? We have adopted singles before?"
"These two are special", she explained. "They belong together and are inseparable."
"Are you sure???," I asked.
I guess she was !!!




So thus came Roscoe.




And the surprises and laughter began. These two are simply funny!! They love everything. Nothing is out of bounds....even the warmth of my laptop, where I do most of my work.




.....and now into the mind of the kitties!




Hey, Roscoe! ROSCOE!! WAKE UP!!



Dad is gone.....and he left the laptop on! Ya know that Etsy thing he joined? It's our big chance to become famous! So let's butter up the CEO's there with a little convo....






Yeah!! That's it!! We kitties ROCK!!

Oh No...QUICK! I think he's coming...!





ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.......





I really don't want them to grow up. But they will. I can only hope they stay bonded, because this is just too special!

Kudos to Kay's animal shelter, and their intuition that Roscoe and Chancellor belong together!

Please welcome Allen and his furry friends to Etsy by leaving a comment and visiting his shop!
