one of my foster kittens (Goat) in all of his cuteness... He and his brother are two of the longest kitten fosters we've ever had. They seem to keep getting over looked by cats with prettier coats.
I posted a video of him and his brother on tiktok and the video was quickly flooded with comments about another kitten (named tater tot?) that had died earlier this week. I'm not a big fan of social media so I didn't know anything about tater tot. I ended up deleting alot of those comments. It feels rude to comment about a deceased kitten on a video of two shelter kittens looking for a home.

Today Goat and his Brother Milk went to meet some potential adopters. We always recommend that people adopt kittens in pairs because its better for the kittens social development and the be honest kittens are half the work when they have a friend to chew on and play with. However, these adopters only wanted Milk. They didn't even hold Goat or really look at him. Really hurt our hearts. Goat is the sweetest, calmest, and cutest of the two. This is the first time our fosters haven't gotten adopted in pairs so now our boy is going through his own emotions as his playmate is no longer here to play toys with him.
Well I am now printing these out and handing them out like business cards. We take goat everywhere. He walks on a leash and likes car rides. so anyone who looks at him gets a card.
