finally... some new photos from the Waldorf Cat Haven (dialup warning)
Edited on Sun Jan-01-06 12:16 PM by bertha katzenengel
These were posted last night in a thread in the Lounge, so if you've already seen them... well, enjoy them again. :)

Bella, a Tennessee cat (belongs to Mrs. V.'s cousin)



Charley covered herself up - I swear to god, sweetest thing I've ever seen



Toby eagerly awaits his biscuits (this month's code word for treats)!



SKITTLES! Wake her up and she'll kick your ass



George & Lenny, California cats (sister one's)



Fred & Mega, California Cats (sister two's)



Moose, licking his chops



Charley with her beloved puffball



At biscuit time: Harry at top, then from left, Toby, Petey, Cocoa, Charley, and Daddy



For those of you unfamiliar with the Waldorf Cat Haven: we run a tiny private TNR group - trap, neuter, return of feral cats in the neighborhood. Sometimes we've fostered kittens, to our detriment; we get attached and can't say no. That's how we wound up w/ eight indoor cats... :shrug:

1. Man oh man, and I thought FOUR were a handful!
That's a whole lotta kitties under foot! It's wonderful of you to have taken them all in-they look quite happy and content. Great pics, too-I especially love the one of Moose; it looks very professional, plus he's got so much personality!

7. A lot of personality, Moose does have - and when he plays
he is VERY wild and destructive. Don't know quite what to do.

:pals: Don't know how you do the foster thing Lorien. We tried it and wound up w/ eight kittles (nine when Moose spends the night). We get attached. Sigh.

2. I am pretty new to this pet group
So, I was glad you explained what the Waldorf Cat Haven is. I think what you do is wonderful, and, judging by the healthy, happy cats I see in these awesome photos, you definitely know what you are doing.

Thank you for sharing these pics -- the kitties are beautiful!

8. Well, Hope, the WCH isn't official - we're not an official non-profit and
solicit donations (although they would help) - it's just my partner, Mrs. V. and me, trapping strays/ferals when we can to get them spayed/neutered.

:hi: Thanks for the kind words.

3. You're good cat (people)
Here's Charley, saying he'll be there in spirit for biscuit time. My walk-in-out-of-the woods rescue.

4. Charley reminds me so much of my Oliver
I adopted Oliver as a 4.5 month old kitten from a local animal shelter. We have bonded very deeply.
Has Charley bonded with you? We've seen photos of his bonding with Pad Thai but what about with you?

6. I like Bella, too. I wish she were ours.
Oops. Don't tell Mrs. V. (or cousin Debby) I said that!

10. Skittles looks like my new foster baby!
I got her Monday. I took pics, but couldn't find the cable for my camera this morning and I was running late, so I will try to post them tomorrow.
