Queenie's Quarters
March 27, 2011
You are now entering Queenie's quarters:
We cordoned off our rarely used upstair's sitting area to be used for fostering along with a spare bedroom behind the screen:
Here is Queenie in her bedroom:
We decided to foster Queenie because the shelter we volunteer at believed her to be pregnant. After she had been with us for about two weeks with no increase in her belly size, we decided to take her to the vet. It turned out that she is not pregnant after all - which of course is a GOOD thing! This is especially so since the people who brought her to the shelter also had several kittens with them she had just had :/ If only people would spay and neuter their pets, it would make such a BIG difference!!!
I have put Queenie on Petfinder and set up her spay appointment. I am so attached to this beautiful, sweet cat that LOVES to talk. She will make someone a wonderful companion!
Fostering is difficult because you do get so attached to them, but it does make a difference. We weren't able to foster during Coco's illness, but beginning to again a few months ago has helped fill the hole left in my heart by Coco's passing.
Queenie:
Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope everyone has a wonderful start to their week :)
That's a lovable cat. :)
Queenie, her highness! :D
I'm starting my week with gladness! :)

If I were living over at your place I'd take Queenie in a second. She's gorgeous. You are wonderful for fostering her. She looks pretty comfortable there on her bed :)
p.s. I can't believe it is so hot over where you live. We had below zero temps this morning. Brrr.

She's a beauty! We hope she gets a forever home soon. We fostered a kitty for a serviceman in Iraq a few years ago. Mila was a sweetie and we were sad to see her go.

We thought about fostering animals. Only one problem. We would turn out to be animal hoarders. Not being able to let any go.

Queenie looks at home on the bed. I hope you find a good permanent home for her.
