quick update (although my quick is limited to a single long paragraph).
we took the house off the market. Buyers were trying to s**k our life's blood and we finally put our feet down and said "DONE". These people want a 30 year old AS-IS house to be like new. And the price we were selling it for (plus kicking in $3k for THEIR closing costs) made us decide the hassle isn't worth it. Rather spend the next 20+ years poor than one day of being used.
So the cats, and Molly, are thrilled. Cats keep their routine and Molly won't have to pee in a strange yard.
Had another foster - he stayed 2 weeks and left for his new home in MONTREAL CANADA yesterday
you can still see him in Siamese Rescue Billy VA4899. Poor kitten spent the first 7 months of his life in a shelter. He was sent there, with his purebred parents and one sibling, when he was 2 weeks old. He was adopted at 7 months of age only to be put in a kill shelter about 4 weeks ago when Rescue was contacted.
He's safe now - and is in his forever home finally.
And next week - I'm getting two 4 week old lynxpoints that were found in a backyard.
KITTENS!!!!!
Molly loves kittens. My cats don't care for them though LOL
So that's it in a nutshell.
I'm staying put (didn't really want to sell anyway - I was in it for the new living room set), still fostering, and very happy.
Still want a new living room set though |

I'm glad to hear you are all doing well Too bad you didn't get a decent offer on your house, but at least you don't have to deal with the stress of moving.
Kittens you say?? Pictures please You do a great job fostering Mary, I really admire you  |

Hi Mary_NH. Missed you being here. Wow! More kittens, huh? I thought you said they pooped too much! LOL Can't wait to see pics of them. Glad Billy the cat found a forever home. That's always nice to hear good news. Wise choice with your home. Always listen to your instincts. They will never fail you.  |
