FERAL KITTEN INCOMING!!!! Who Knew They Made Kittens This Ornery?!?! (#663-664)

Pearl and Boots... Lookit that BIG foot!

Hey Everyone,

We just got in two new kittens for socialization and they are a tough and spicy pair!

The problem we have here is that they appear to be a couple of weeks older than the previous babies we had and that means they could be more set in their ways.

They are completely healthy and not a flea on 'em... They are just VERY anti-social.

So, as it usually goes, we're going to keep them in the cage so they can be pet without having to chase them down which only freaks them out.

The other step is food, treats, and toys all the time!

Depending on how it plays out in the next few days we can let them out if they can be handled without too much drama.

Keep your fingers crossed, I fear these two are a tough pair!

Updates to come.

FERAL KITTEN UPDATE! These Two Cranky Little Kitties Are No Longer Cranky… They Are Love Muffins! ❤️ (VIDEO)

When these two babies came in, we really thought they were going to be a problem because they were put out and mean-mugging us all day long!

Much to our surprise and delight, they came around quickly and now love to be pet, belly rubbed, and they nuzzle into your neck and turn into purr machines the second you pick them up.

Here is a video of the two playing and being petted...

It is a beautiful thing to see happen when the switch flips, and they understand you are only there to help and love them.

They are totally ready for their furever homes and are presently residing at the North Fork Animal Welfare League if you are interested in adopting them... Thell them AFAR sent you ❤️

FERAL KITTEN INCOMING!!!! Oh, They Look Cute, But These Two Are Cranky, Cranky, Cranky! (#661-662)


Hey all,

We have received two new adorable black kittens in the shelter this week... And boy, are they nonplussed!

In other words, they are ornery, cranky, crotchety, cantankerous, and ill-tempered!

Who knew something this cute could be so grumpy?

That being said, they are in tip-top shape with no colds, worms, or fleas... It's a miracle!

So it is time for some top-of-the-line spoiling with treats, catnip mice, playing with string, red laser dot races, and then some more treats.

Here are a few more pictures I was able to take before they shot me the stink-eye and shooed me away (check out the one with the French tip manicure!!!!!)...

FERAL KITTEN INCOMING!!!! A Couple Of Goopy-Eyed Bad Boys! (#659-660)


Hey, ya’ll, 

It’s been a minute, but we’re back.

Today we have two sweet boys – both very feral – who have terrible cases of upper repertory infections as well as some goopy eyes.

These kittens were found in a group of 5, all abandoned in a local woman’s backyard.

These two were apparently the “bad boys” of the bunch, so we were selected to socialize them.

To be honest, they are fakers and are quickly becoming little cuddlers.

We are presently treating both of them while they enjoy a little quarantine time in the intake room before they can mix with gen-pop.

Here are some pictures we took in the morning before we gave them their medications, and they already look a thousand times better, so everything is headed in the right direction!
