Thoughtful Thursday

Hi kitties!
Thank you for the happy blogoversary wishes that you left yesterday. Our 'distracted' mum forgot. It's been three years and one day since we started our blog. When we started, it was just me and the tabbyman, and we lived in Townsville with our foster sister Evie. It was in looking for information on other Devons like Evie that we came across Daisy's blog, and thought it could be a fun idea to keep a diary of our fosters.

Since then, we have moved to Sydney and now Melbourne, and found our new brother Lishy Lewis von Kittenpants. Of the 68 foster kitties we have had, 55 came to us while we've been running the blog. We've had 3 mums with litters (Stella, Dahlia and Galaxy), 1 adult on her own for behaviour rehab (Evie) and 10 newborns with their mum (Elijah, Ellie, Angus, Pablo, Daisy, Lily, Gus, Benny, Jonathan and Lewis) and 4 newborns that needed handdraising (Harry, Hermione, Freddie and Georgie). The rest ranged between 4 and 14 weeks on arrival. We have had 8 angel kittens who did not make it to their forever homes, but will always be in our hearts. Then there is Lishy, who while he came here as a foster is not counted in our numbers, as we know he was always meant to be one of us.

We love being part of such a lovely blogosphere, and have made so many wonderful friends. Here is to another three years and one day!
Love Suey.

HAPPY belated BLOGOVERSARY, Dear Friends! We just love your blog and relish every one of your posts. We have smiled and cried with you over the years, and our hearts always puff out with joy (talk about mixed metaphors...) at the thought of Lishy's journey.

Looking forward to many more blog posts and adventures.

Wow, reading the names of your fosters brings back such wonderful memories for us...since we remember each and every one...we have danced for joy when each furbaby finds a forever home and we have cried with you when they've had to go to The Bridge.

We are looking forward to more happy memories and more precious fosters.

Fui, Suey and Lishy...we adore you!
