Sparro Chirps!

Yup, Sparro Chirps! And mews and purrs! She loves to express herself and loves to talk to you and let you know how much she loves that you're home or petting her etc!

But don't worry! She doesn't talk forever! This is more how she greets you! The rest of the time she is content to purr and head-butt you or take a nap or find a nice toy to carry around and chase :)

Here is a video of how she greets me when I show up! (Note how she is silent before I open the door!)

Lovely Sparro!

What can I say about this lovely lady.... wait what CAN'T I say about her?

She is such a great kitty! She has a gorgeous tuxedo colouring, and my favourite part are her "socks"! Hehe, I always say she has ankle socks in the front and knee-highs in the back. Cause her front two paws have a little bit of white while her back legs have more white :)

She is a litte chatterbox, in the best way - I never feel lonely with her around and I always feel so special when she is so happy to see me after work or school that she talks to me for a few minutes and twines around my legs!

And this isn't just because she knows me, she does this with everyone! She was doing this after knowing me for 20 minutes haha!

She uses her litter-box well and eats well and is healthy, and loves her scratching post!

She was originally in a stressful living environment, so then she came to Vokra and then to me for fostering! And honestly, you'd never know she had any stresses before, because she is just such a brave and affectionate kitty!

If I am on the computer, she will either come sit on my lap, or take a nap next to me on the floor or on the bed. At night, when I'm watching TV is what she waits for - she jumps up onto my lap or legs and curls up for a snooze :) She would honestly sleep there for ages if I didn't need to get up from time to time.

She just loves people and I hope we can find a wonderful home for this wonderful girl! If you think you might be the home for her, then please visit her VOKRA page HERE and click on the "apply today" button under ready to adopt!

Astan!

Hello everyone! I have a new foster! His name is...well a bit of a funny story haha! He was originally named Astana, as he was thought to be a girl! Whoops! So it was then changed to Astan, a more masculin name :) And he seems to like it - he even responds to it!

Astan has been here a little over 3 weeks now and my is he ever a super affectionate kitty!
He started out very shy, he would just sit somewhere and not move - you could go up and pet him, but he wouldn't move at all - just look at you scared with his big eyes.

Well I spend some time cuddling him as he wasnt food or toy motivated and last week we made some crazy breakthroughs! He is now such a sweet and friendly kitty!
He is still nervous around strangers, but if I am there to help him and the stranger then Astan realized the stranger gives pets too! He is getting better and better everyday! He is so great! :) It's hard to even say he's a "shy" kitty anymore - since he spends most of his time climbing into my lap while im on the computer or headbutting me for attention ;)

He is definitely ready for his forever home! :)

Here's a quick writeup:

Astan is a handsome grey kitten that is full of love! When he first came to foster he was shy, and would hide. He would allow you to pet him, but did not seek affection. You wouldn’t know that now! Quite quickly he bonded with us and now the minute he sees me he will run right over and head butt me for pats! He even comes to his name! He loves to twine and lean against legs asking for affection! Strangers still make him a bit nervous, and he will shy away from them, but with some time and encouragement he realizes that pets can come from them too! He is very affectionate with people he knows and he will sit forever in your lap if you keep petting him!  Astan enjoys walking around the house giving little talkative mews and seeing what’s going on.  He has gorgeous eyes that seem to always be telling you what he’s thinking! 
Because he can be a bit shy he would like a home without young children, as they can be a bit too noisy for him.  Astan would love a quieter home where he can bond with his people and get lots of love! He is a very affectionate and loving cat and would love to have a home to call his own! 

Pictures to come soon! :)

Bye-Bye Gypsy!

Bye bye goofy girl! We'll miss you!

Though I doubt she'll miss us as she's going to such a great home! :)

Can't wait till I hear how she's doing! :)

And it is possible my next foster kitty is coming tonight! So I'm in the process of stripping everything and cleaning it all to prep for a new kitty!

Have a great life Gyp!
:)








Gypsy has an applicant!

Gypsy had a great viewing today! It is a great home for her and she likes him already! :) She was being a bit of a mischief while he was here, with all the excitement of a new person and laser-pointers etc!
But overall she was a good kitty and is now pooped after playing so much! So she came over and hopped onto my bed and snuggled in for a nap! What a sweetie :)

Hopefully the application goes through today and she can go to her new home! Otherwise she's welcome to stay here as long as she'd like ;)

In the meantime I will just snuggle her as much as I can! :)

Gypsy is so funny! :)

Gypsy is just a total clown haha! We call her Goof for a reason! :)



I have a funny story to tell...
To start ill say that she loves empty boxes! I don't know what it is but the minute one is put on the floor she jumps into it! That's it. She just jumps into it and sits and peers over the top! Haha! She's like a little gazelle bounding over the edge into the box lol!

So we have two empty boxes we leave on the floor for her - she's chase a toy and then drop it, jump into a box, peer at it over the top, then jump out of the box and pounce on her toy! Haha what a goof hey? Hehe!

I have a video of that I can add later.

But for now here's some more pics of her!
What a sweet kitty!

She is super lovable and a great size!
And what a beauty! She has such a great personality and is just a lovable playful kitty! :) and she loves giving kisses :)
