  • OMGOMGOMG!!!

    We have had so many breakthroughs since the last entry that I haven't known where to start. Until today's breakthrough, which I managed to capture photos of. Above, you see Ember calmly sitting where she spent most of the afternoon . . . on the...

  • We Love Greenies!

    We have a new method and it's working so well! None of my other cats are much interested in treats so I don't keep them around. However, I thought I'd give them a try with Ember. Last week, I noticed that she is sometimes close to the outer...

  • I Don't DO Group Shots

    I've been moving Ember's dish further and further from the bed and she's been quite brave about coming out to eat. I feed Chloe in there too and I thought it would be great to get a photo of them eating side by side. They are both quite beautiful...

  • Not Ember . . . Fu Fu!

    I had to show these photos off somewhere so Ember said I could use her blog. I haven't done kitten fostering for a long time, preferring to focus on FIV+ kitties and hospice cases. So it was quite a treat to visit my friend Dana's over the weekend...

  • Photo Shoot!

    Ember and I had a half hour chat and photo shoot tonight while she ate, stretched and bathed. Well, I chatted . . . she was her silent and gorgeous self. I love the body language in this series! Only her tail shows any hints of nervousness. Ready? Here...

  • Gearing Up

    Corinne scanned and emailed me the manual Terri and Sherry wrote. Thanks, Corinne! I'm gathering my gear so we can get started and spending enough that it should help keep me to my commitment. Sheesh! First, I had to buy a new cage. The recommended...

  • An Ember Epiphany

    Nope, that's obviously not Ember. It's Kendra, who is about to graduate from Miss Sherry's Finishing School and who spent the night with me last Monday night. She didn't really need another overnight. She had spent at least two nights...

  • There She Is!

    I'm so glad that Ember let me see her today. I'm headed to Best Friends tomorrow and I didn't want to leave without saying goodbye. At least part of the time I'll be volunteering with some of her old shy pals from Pahrump and she let me...

  • It's Smokey Cat Day

    Ember continues to hide so I'm tossing out (equally gorgeous) filler. ; ) The boy above was the first kitty I ever met who had this striking combination of smoke tabby coloring and long fur. His name is "Smoke" and, when I met him, he lived...

  • Ember As A Baby?

    Network pal cattees emailed me this photo this morning, saying she imagined Ember looked something like this as a baby. I think so, too, though Ember would probably have been fluffier . . . and even MORE beautiful, of course!

  • Ember's Brother, Casper

    Ember has been hiding for awhile so Casper thought he'd say "hello" from the Princess tent. Heck, if the princesses aren't going to use it, he might as well! Especially because the pillow inside is black. He thinks he should do his best...

  • She Still Takes My Breath Away!

    Ember has been on the move quite a bit lately and I've seen more of her. That's always a good thing. ; ) I stripped the daybed for washing, including the dust ruffle the girl likes to hide behind. As a result, she's been checking out new places...

  • This Picture is for Amelia

    atuttle/Amelia wrote to ask about Ember and I told her I hadn't taken more photos because she's mostly under the daybed when I'm around. She told me to just take a photo of her under there, then. So here you go, Amelia . . . even with glare...

  • Best Picture Yet!

    Look at my beautiful, brave girl! She's a little fuzzy 'cause I didn't want to use the flash, but look at those ears up! Avoiding eye contact but quite calm. She let me talk to her and get quite close before she she fairly calmly left her...

  • Hey . . . Who's That?

    Hmmm . . . that's not Chloe . . . it must be EMBER! And she stayed put long enough for me to get the camera. ; ) Later in the day, she was out in the open and just looked at me calmly while I chatted with her. I SO wish I could have gotten that photo...
