Description: Rocket is one of the 4 black foster kittens orphaned at 3 weeks old when her mother was hit by a car. She is the sole girl is this new litter of fosters. She and her 3 brothers were hand reared and bottle fed from 3.5 to 7 weeks old in their first foster family home. At 12 weeks of age, she and her brothers came to my foster home. These are purry, personable and very people-orineted kittens. She has some striping in her body, and a white spot on her belly between her hind legs.

The girls spent a lot of time pool side. I didn't get to go back to the house to check on the kitties. They usually get wet food at night before I go to bed. They wi… read more

Roz came through for us Adopt A Pet foster parents and baked a cake. A real, live, tactile, frosted cake--not a photo pixel one. I came to Petco and set up my kitties for display, and then drove to Roz's work to pick up the cake that she had in her car. (Roz didn't want her co-workers to learn cake was available but not for them, so we had to be… read more
