We're sorry...

Mom ushooally duzent put pikshers of her foster babies on our bloggy because den some beans will want one (who cood blame dem, dey is furry kyoote). When mom agreed to be a foster mom to kittens (sometimes she gets dem wifout mom cats and hasta bottul feed dem effury cuppul hours) she also hadda sign an agreement dat when da kitties is weened she wood return dem to da Humane Society. Dis is so dat dey can be sher dat da kitties is nootered and dat der is a bakground check on da adoptors. We are sorry dat we can't give our frends a kitty, she can't effun give one to Ali and Ali works at da shelter! Mom takes her foster responsibilatees furry sereeusly and does what da shelter deems best fur da kittens. We are sorry dat we can't gif dem to our frends cuz we know yoo are all reely good kitty moms and dads. I'm aspeshully sorry dat we are not allowed to keep at least one of dem, dats not a shelter rool dats a mom rool. Sometimes my mom is furry meen to me...~Speedy

Speedy, I am glad that the Humane Society has such strict rules, to make sure the cats get good homes and are neutered. Your mom does a great job as a foster mom. It is wonderful that she helps out that way.

I'm sorry you can't keep one of the kittens, Speedy. You are clearly good at looking after them.

We understand, Speedy. The shelter has the best interest of the kitties in mind, and that's what's important.

But really, Mom starts acting strange when she sees kitten pictures! Dad says, NO...4 is enough.

I wouldn't mind having a baby sister or brother, but for now, I'll have to be satisfied to just help you do your babysitting. I'll be over this afternoon and we can purr together!

Love
Misty

Speedy, those are very good rules. I think your role is to help raise them so they can go on to good homes. That is an important job you have! So do not be sad that you cannot keep one.

sammawow said...

We're sorry that you don't get to keep any of those sweet kittens but they are very lucky to have a babysitter as caring as you - just like your mom caring for the kitties until they get a forever home.

Purrrrs, China Cat & Willow

Don't be sorry, your momma is a very good foster mom.
The rules must be different at every humane society, because momma was able to adopt Fiona via the foster mom who told the humane society she wanted Fiona & had been visiting her on a regular basis, though the adoption was through humane society, she just didn't have to do the hour long getting to know the cat session.

Your Friends,
Fiona & Ali

Hi Speedy--
Thank all of you for visiting my new blog. Your momma has good rules. And look on the bright side: kittens are exhausting. It makes me have to take a nap jus' thinkin' about a house full of kittens.
Your new buddy, Jimmy Joe

Your mommy is a very responsible foster parent, it is very understandable; and rulz r rulz, as they say.

We so happy your mommy is a foster mommy to those kittens! My mommy wanted to, but b/c of her health, she couldn't and it makes her sad, coz she wants to help.

Just Ducky said...

Gotta follow the rules. That way the kitties get the bestest homes. Not that you mum would't do a good job too.

Humans have such strange rules.

My bean has been asked to be a fosterrr parrent for the SPCA --but couldn't do it at that parrrticularrr time. It is good to know yourrr bean takes herrr job verrry serrriously.

Samantha & Mom said...

Those are good rules, Speedy. I know you will miss them, but you can be a good manny and make sure they are trained up right when they go to their new furever homes. Don't be mad at Mom. Nothing interesting in the tunnel, we was just trying to figure out if we could both get in it at the same time.

We're furry sorry you kant keep one of does kittens, dey shur are cute! Dad says we can't have any more cats, dat three is enuf. Yore mom is doing a really great fing and helping dose moms and kittens. She's a furry speshal mom fur doing dat.

LZ said...

I think you should have your very own kitten Speedy! Even if its just a stuffed one because you take SUCH good care of them! We certainly understand your mom being such a GREAT foster mom and upholding her end of the bargain. She does such a good job helping out!!

Speedy, sumtimes our moms DO know bestest. If they took in efurry kitty they want to wifout finkin bout efurry bean an cat in the household, they'd all becum "crazy cat ladies" an all us happy kitties mite not be so happy anymore.

An there aren't that many moms willin or able to do the bottul feedin, an if the ones who can all kept all the kittens they want, they mite not be able to help more that need bottul feedin.

So by followin the rules, yur mom will save more kittens an the werld will be all better than if you brake the rules.

But I still wish you could keep a kitten an I could haf a kitten of my own. Ok, nuf typin - i need a nap.

Bonnie Underfoot said...

Hel-lo! Why would ANY self-respecting cat WANT to share her domain with a stinky, pouncing, annoying little... Oh, hi Victor, no, I wasn't, um, no, uh. Just saying how cute the kittens are.

Karen Jo said...

I am very proud of your Mom for taking her job so seriously and for following all the rules. You should be, too. I am sure that you will be a very good manny and help get those cute kitties ready for their forever homes. And pooh! on the stinky beans who brought Minny back.

Peach Man said...

Speedy,man, I hear ya. I luv my foster babies. I always want them for keeps even tho they make me crazy. You see, you just have to think of yourself as a Life Coach or Mentor (see piktur on my blog), getting those little guys on their way in life and teachin' them how to be bad, ahem, I mean, good kitties. Teach 'em all the tricks! Don't worry, though my Mama doesn't let me keep any of the kittens either. We only got to keep Simone cuz she was old an' one eyed and nobuddy would adopt her.

MaoMao said...

You must be furry proud of your momma... she's a wonderful bean.

Big Piney Woods Cats said...

Please give your momma extra snuggles and kisses from us. It is wonderful what she is doing!

About what you said in our comments about camping. Yup, you would think living in the Big Piney Woods they wouldn't want to go camping, but Momma says it is difrint. The woods is the woods is the woods, I say....

Well, Speedy, I think you are doing a great job. Those kittens probably wouldn't be as fun when they were all grown up anyway. You are enjoying them as kittens and a foster dad. And it's great they can go and get their own special homes.

We undurstand. Yer lady mite be mean fur not letting yoo keep one of dem but it's supur nice of her to care enuff to love love love them!
