Homeless Camp: The Kittens

There can be redemption. The homeless camp kittens are proof of the concept!

I took out four very friendly socialized gray and white kittens, originally, three boys and one girl. The girl, now named Clowie, got a great home with a Philomath woman, who later also took in one of two kittens living behind an Albany complex fed by a blind man. One boy, Louie, was adopted by an Albany family with Isis, a kitten abandoned on Lyons street. Hooch, a silver tabby and white male kitten, Bootleg, a black and white kitten, and Scamp, one of the gray and whites, went to a Jefferson cat lover. Fatso, a brown tabby on white male kitten, and the other gray and white boy went to a Eugene woman. Blackjack, the black tux kitten, went to a Keizer cat lover.

Ozzie, not pictured, with Clover, the damaged eye precocious calico, who is Ozzie's sister, went to PAWS in West Linn, after spending time with Poppa Inc.'s president.

Buddha and Honey are still here. Shithead, the only kitten they demanded be returned, died at the camps shortly after his return.

My job is not done. There are still two kittens out there, who could be saved, if I can only catch them in time.

I've returned 13 adults. There is, however, a black long hair female, already fixed, tame, out there, abandoned by the same folks who abandoned the brown tabby female. Some of these cats need out of there. Sure, I've taken the numbers down by half, but there are more who could get out and have a chance. There is one more big male, if still alive, not fixed, once owned there, abandoned by whomever brought him in, to catch and get fixed. Allegedly there is an orange male who roams in from a nearby street, unfixed, now and then, and a couple of black males, coming in occasionally from the same street. By and large, however, this colony is now fixed. I want those two last kittens, though.

Maggie, the last kitten I trapped, a brown tabby female, was taken in by a Wilsonville family who have named her Maggie.Rest in Peace Shithead.
