Caption: the rescue kittens Alfie & Abby
Caption: Last week I stopped at the East Valley Animal Shelter to drop off some donations of food and supplies. I made the mistake of venturing further in. Two days later I was at the shelter when they opened and now Alfie & Abby are with us as fosters...
We hope... kind of...
Picture
Caption: Alfie is lanky & long limbed with a quiet playful personality.
Picture
Caption: Abby is a tiny spitfire.
Picture
Caption: They are healthy and growing. They did come up FeLV + which is hopefully mom's vaccine antibodies. They'll be retested in a few weeks...
Picture
Caption: In the meantime they have a large dog kennel full of toys to call their own...
Picture
Caption: They have supervised play time several times a day. They dash around the office pouncing and playing while the kitties are locked out...
Picture
Caption: Sitting in the hall... Desperate to come in and play. Or in Stan's case bathe the kittens into submission..
Picture
Picture
Caption: They are both tabby colored. Abby's coat is grayer and more marbled.
Picture
Picture
Caption: Alfie's coat is lighter, browner, and stripe-y.

Caption: It's like a kitty Disneyland after two weeks in the shelter..
Picture
Picture
Caption: Alfie is curious about Stan. Abby not so much. She growls and howls and pounces. Who is this white arm trying to get into her playroom???

Picture
Picture
Caption: He is mellow and sweet. Though his sister often finds him a bother. Until she wants to curl up for a cuddle and sleep.
Picture
Caption: She growls and yells and makes her annoyance clear. Especially when her brother pounces her while she is busy playing on her own.
Picture
Picture
Caption: This is one of their favorite toys. So many balls going round and round all at once.

Caption: Claude & kittens... They are fascinating and scary and must be observed inside the kennel from the safety of his tunnel.
