BATCH #26 - ALL ADOPTED

In less than a month, my Thailand-themed kittens have all been adopted. Samui is going to the home of one of my previous 2018 foster adopters, who tragically lost one of their cats unexpectedly. They felt that their remaining cat needed a companion as he had always had one throughout kittenhood and the transition through to adoption. They chose Samui's quiet, shy nature so that he would not over-power their shy resident cat.

ADOPTED: Samui
Pick-up date: Nov. 28/22

The fluffy kittens, Jomtien and Pattaya, are going to be joining a household full of fur siblings: 2 dogs, 1 cat and probably a partridge in a pear tree.

The adopters were contemplating only taking one of the kittens to buddy up with their 5-year old cat, but VOKRA did not deem the age of the cat age-appropriate enough. So, the family decided to adopt the two kittens together (much to the delight of the daughter, I might add, who was keen on adopting them both).

When an adopter is looking to adopt a kitten for their resident cat, they must first look at the energy level and personality of both the cat and the kitten to see if they're a good match. Some older cats do not like (or appreciate) the spunk and energy level of a kitten and might just outright refuse the kitten. This is why kittens will need to be adopted as a pair into a household that already has a resident cat, which is the case with Jomtien and Pattaya.

My family are all coming over the day before Jomtien and Pattaya are to be picked up by their new family. Final snuggles, kisses and good-byes will be given to the fabulously floofy duo who have stolen (and broken) a few hearts along the way.

ADOPTED: Pattaya & Jomtien
Pick-up Date: Nov. 19/22

Samui will stay with me for another week to 9 days, awaiting his family's return from work-related travels. I'll need to give him plenty of attention as I know he will be missing his siblings terribly.

BATCH #26 IS HERE IN ALL THEIR FLOOFYNESS

I have been on a travelling bonanza pretty much non-stop since November 2021, when the borders were opened up after the COVID lockdown. It's been almost a year since I've had any foster kittens and let me tell you ... I've missed fostering!

I have been all over the place travelling: Hawaii, Las Vegas, California, Mexico, Portugal and Spain. But my longest trip was to Thailand. I spent almost four months there and loved it so much that these kittens were named after a few of the places that I stayed there. Say hello to my "Thailand Kittens":

JOMTIEN

PATTAYA

SAMUI

When I picked these kittens up at VOKRA Operations, I could not get over how CUTE they were. And the two floofy kittens, Jomtien & Pattaya, were soooooo floofy! I wonder why Samui never took on that trait.

Samui is definitely the most shy of the three of them. He's pretty much scared of anybody that comes into the room, but slowly warms up to you after a while. 

Jomtien is by far the fan favorite with his perfect face and easy-going demeanour. I probably kiss his face over 100x a day, and he just sits there absorbing all my adoration.

Pattaya, is the only girl in this batch of 3 and is definitely the little diva. She loves her mane to be brushed, but has words with you when you hold her when she's not 'feeling' it. But, if you know me, I don't really care ... I have to kiss her adorable face over and over again. She's just so darn cute.

These little guys are such purr machines. They purr so loud and often. Anytime I pick them up, they are purring. I love it.

These kittens (especially the floofy ones) were also really good with being man-handled by my family and my three nephews. 

Samui has a viewing today with a family that adopted two of my Harry Potter kittens back in 2018. Unfortunately, one of those kittens passed away suddenly and they are now looking to get their single kitty another buddy.

Whichever kitten they end up choosing will be a good choice. All my kittens are all taught to be friendly and loving. 

Let's keep our fingers crossed, shall we?!

M.I.A.

I have been TERRIBLE with keeping up with this blog. Days turns into weeks, weeks turns into months and then all of a sudden all of your foster kittens are ready for adoption and are out the door before you know it. I didn't post once about Batch #25 (my "Rock Star" kittens that I took over from another foster). They had already been named, so these names are not of my choosing. I had this batch back in September, 2021 so my memory of where they went to and who adopted them is very fuzzy. But alas, I do have lots of pictures of them!

JAGGER

I love this picture of Jagger. Catching him in mid-meow makes him look so ferocious, doesn't it?
