Today was fantastic. I was able to get homes for all 5 kittens. Happened to ask one of Jon's friends if he knew anyone who might want a kitten and he knew someone who knew someone and it all worked out. I fed them around 7 this morning and all had gone to new homes before 10 am. I owe Jon's friend a big batch of fried apple pies to say thanks.

I was trying to re-home them asap because my father in law is not an animal person unless it is a horse. He was doing a lot of complaining Thursday morning because the kittens were literally climbing his pants leg every time he went in the garage. He did not think it was funny when I joked they were just checking his pockets for tuna.
He had made the comment about taking them to his other son's and letting them loose with the 15+ starved and sick cats they have outside. I told him to give me at least a couple of weeks to try and find them a home and that Jon and I did not approve of the condition of their pets and that clubbing them in the head would have been more humane than taking them to my brother in laws house. All of their outside cats are sick and none are neutered or spayed. The friend that made the whole thing come together for me got his computer fixed by us for free to say thanks and he has some fried apple pies coming his way very soon. He knew a young couple who wanted 2 of them and they knew people who wanted the others so it worked out great. If they had not taken them all my sis was gonna take one in a couple of weeks.
My father in law spent some time today looking for any way cats could get into his garage so it will not happen again.

lol I might. Last Sunday after I came in from the garden I told Frank I found a box of puppies someone had dropped off and he did not think it was the least bit funny.
