Foster cat update

The TNR project has finally wound down. Many cats and kittens were trapped and neutered and spayed. Most of the kittens turned out to be not feral. Three of the cats (one, the sister of Ziggy Stardust), were taken to a farm in Georgia, where they are now happy barn cats. The beautiful orange brothers (I called them my orange muffins) are at an adoption facility, waiting for a home. Probably because they had to be fostered much longer than normal, they have not adjusted that well, but are doing better. Two of the other kittens went to another adoption facility. They, too, were to have been adopted together because--when we had them--they were inseparable. However, once they got to their new temporary home, they fought so much they had to be separated. The male, a beautiful silver tabby kitten, has been adopted, and the gray tabby female (her adoption name is Macy Gray), one of my very favorites of the group, is still waiting for a home. I wish I could have kept her; we were attached to one another.
