Forever Friday with the Symphony Kittens

We are taking a break from our Halloween posts to do our usual Forever Friday.  Keeping  with our theme this week we are featuring  several sweet black kittens from Alley Cats and Angels near Raleigh, North Carolina. I have mentioned them before since they utilize  TNR on feral colonies and will adopt out ferals if tamed or to people with barns to provide housing for the displaced colonies.  Here is their blog story of the Symphony Kittens -

The SPCA forwarded information to us about a colony of ferals with a very limited income caregiver and our one of our TNR Task Force Leaders, Marie P, has been working for the past week trapping for TNR at that colony.  There are approximately 15-20 adult cats and about 10-12 kittens.  So far, 7 of the ferals were "fixed" through our Alter an Alley Cat program last week and we hope to get the remaining cats done this week and next week.  8 kittens have been trapped so far (6 black and white kittens and 2 all black kittens) and there are approximately 3 more kittens to catch.  The kittens are approximately 5 weeks old.  Thankfully, there was someone in the area that is willing to foster the kittens and we are ecstatic because we truly had no available foster homes for them.  Two of the household members play for the North Carolina Symphony so we have dubbed the kittens the "Symphony kittens".  No word yet as to if they will be named after famous composers (Mozart, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, etc.).
 






Aren't they sweet - didn't I tell you?  Let's help find them all forever homes - pass this on whether it be Facebook or Twitter or email!  Please do check out this great rescue organization - they have a Facebook page, blog and web site Alley Cats and Angels.

And thank for all the great comments on our Halloween week posts - we have enjoyed reading them.  We will get to you all on return visits - Mom did the posts done beforehand cuz she has been nursing Pop over some surgery this week and has been busy with that and caring for us all by herself! Come back on for more Halloween fun over the weekend.
