So, I was in the middle of writing the other post for the kitties, part 2, but something came up.

There has been this kitty I have been trying to find and catch since December 2022 and news from the lady I had been working with, who actually lives near her, finally popped up again. Wren and I were out shopping for the new house and we barely got to the store when I got a phone call. I almost didn't answer it, but I saw that it was a local area code and it could have been someone from the local social security office calling so I answered. It was someone with the kitty rescue I work with calling to say there was a lady trying to get a hold of me for a Momma cat and some babies but had lost my number. I immediately knew who it was and called her.

Once I got a hold of her she said someone had seen the Mom and she had 4 babies in tow. It was kinda up in the air whether or not she had them as we had never seen them, it was just suspected. So this was the first confirmation that she really had them. We talked for a little about what to do, and we ended up deciding to get more food for her as she didn't have any. So, I grabbed some food and headed over there. I didn't have a carrier with me at the time, and unfortunately didn't go back to my house to get one as 1, I was already halfway there and 2, I thought I was just dropping off food. This turned out to be a mistake.

So after we got the food and headed over to the apartment complex, I saw the woman I had been working with walking around with some kids. I quickly parked and she said these kids had seen them just a minute ago! So we followed them, but then they said they had run off and we couldn't find them. I gave all 3 kids my phone number so they could contact me if they saw them. We ended up talking to a guy that had been feeding them, apparently Mom had actually had the, originally 5, kittens on his patio. He hadn't seen them for 2 days but we got his number and he said he would call if he sees anything. I gave the food we had bought to the woman, which turned out to be a mistake as well, and she went to put it in her apartment. After she came back out she said she had some stuff to do and would see us another day and call her with any news.

Right as I was saying goodbye to the man who had been feeding them, he said he could no longer afford it so he stopped, I got a phone call. It was one of the kids saying they found all of the kitties on someone's porch! So, of course, it was on the other side of the apartment complex but once we got nearby the kids ushered us over. After months I finally got to see Momma cat, and confirm that there were babies as well. We attempted to catch them, but like I said earlier, we didn't have a carrier. We were able to wrangle 2 babies and Momma, but the other two got away. So we put them in the vehicle, went to PetSmart and got a carrier, and came back to catch the rest. We saw them, and had a couple close calls but didn't end up catching them. I got the numbers of the ladies who lived there, an older mother and daughter pair. They apparently had been feeding them as well and the daughter is really attached to them. They had tried to keep Mom when she had no babies with her, but have two cats of their own and it didn't work out. It was getting dark and they are dark colored cats, all of them, so we headed out and promised to come back for the other 2. This was on Tuesday. The last two days we have gone back to try and catch them as well. Wednesday we hadn't seen them, so we decided to not come up unless we got a call. Well, Thursday after work I got a call from one of the kids saying they saw the other 2 kittens! We rushed over there, with a carrier and some canned food this time, and we almost got them. The daughter had been out there for 2 hours before we did and we were there for at least an hour and a half. We planned to come back on Saturday, since we were both off, with Mom and try to catch them then. I left the carrier with them with some food and a blanket that smells like Momma. We weren't going to let Mom out, just try to lure them in with her smell and sound, she is very vocal. We had been playing Marco Polo with the babies on Thursday, they were crying and then we would mew back and they would answer. So that gave us the idea to bring Mom.

Saturday came and we ended up bringing Mom and the babies just in case, Mom in one and the two boys in the other. It only took us about 10-15 minutes to catch them both. One we caught as he was hopping out of the patio with a towel. The other got away to some steps up to another apartment but we blocked him with a sheet and we're able to snatch him up as well. We brought them straight to the vet after that.

There is a lot more that has happened with this than I am capturing in this post, so if you guys are interested in hearing more of what happened just let me know I can write more! I would be happy to!

loving ur blog so much !! I work in cat rescue and im absolutely obsessed w their weird genetics they're such fun critters. here r some of my favorites from work :]

Such darlings!! and ty!!!

The first one seems to be a black classic tabby!

The second one seems to be a black smoke!

The third one stumped me for a while, because it could be a plethora of genes causing that coloration, so there are a few possible options. The first one I thought of was a Ccb pointed silver cat, which would give it the eye colors and tinted brown around the back of the head and legs, but I'm unsure. I'm going to leave this cat as unidentified for me to check back on within a month, and see if my answer had changed.

The fourth cat seems to be a black silver broken mackerel tabby!

Smoking is seriously one of the best episodes of television I have ever seen. the teacher's lounge scene? "now imagine it's blurry"? CASEY FREY??? Quinta Brunson deserves a Pulitzer

Obviously Sybil sucks and all but at one point with Street Smart you can tease Tabitha about "picking up tea" meaning buying drugs and Sybil will play along and tell you she has "the best devil's lettuce" in town. So we have to give her credit for that.

Smoke

A little introspective fic for Scarlet Hollow. Isaacs' thoughts as he waits for Haley Scarlet behind the diner on Wednesday morning. Spoilers for early Episode 3. (This hasn't been beta read, and I didn't edit it as carefully as my norm, so it's not really my best work. But perfect is the enemy of done, and it's done.)

Isaacs watched the smoke curl away from his lit cigarette after putting his phone back in his pocket. He'd sucked up his misgivings and texted Tabitha Scarlet’s cousin of all people. For some reason he thought he could trust Haley, even after he’d pieced together she was related to the boss. From what he heard they didn’t even know each other before this week. He just hoped if she did show up that none of the other miners found out, especially Zachs.

No matter who Haley's cousin was, she was the first and only lead he had about Sam since he disappeared about a week ago. None of the other miners bothered trying to find anything out. Then this Haley woman came around asking questions yesterday. Even slipped him her phone number on the sly. 

Before the others got to the diner that morning, he’d prodded Avery for gossip about her. Was surprised to find out she was a school teacher, didn’t seem the type to him. Haley had something cunning and sharp hiding behind that friendly smile of hers. Sure as hell didn’t strike him as someone who grew up sheltered and cushy, then became a teacher ‘cause she "just loved kids so much". You can find the rest here on Ao3!
