Soon. Really soon. Sonya is walking spraddle-legged, her tail is
arched over her hips and you can start to see the outlines of her vulva.
I really think that they told us any time now in order to get us to
take her in as a foster. It is really hard to find fosters for pregnant
cats as no one wants to deal with them. kittens are adorable, but not
when they're still inside the milk factory.
Sonya is so darn sweet, even when she's just not happy. She waits under
the bed for Amanda to stand by it, then slaps Mandy's ankles. She does
flying leaps onto Mandy's bed to sleep with her, and snuggles with Mandy
at night. Mandy says that Sonya takes more than her fair share of the
bed. We're still feeding her kitten food and have all the emergency
stuff ready, but are getting so that we're a little complacent about
leaving the house.
Current names are Eric, Jasper, and Patience. We'll work from there.

How long have you been aware of her pregnancy? MLB

We were asked to foster her at the end of January. The 29th, I think.
It's been almost a month now.

Chester was almost a Jasper. Of course, the world could always use another
Chester and another Otis for that matter :D

Do you really think a shelter would lie to its foster families? That's awful.
I mean, if there's anywhere you want to have a relationship of trust ...
