Have you tried Flickr? It's pretty easy to post pics once you upload them.

And if you want, you can email me the picture, I'll be happy to post it on my Flickr account, and then I'll post it here. Just PM me if you want me to do that and I'll send you my email address.

Flickr also has a couple of local animal adoption photo pools we could put it up on (there are links in the "Tips for using this forum" post to those, and if I post it on my account for you I'll go ahead and also post it in them).

Thanks so much. But, I think I have a taker! I am sooooooo sad to let go of her. But it is good to know she will go somewhere safe. She is the sweetest little monster I have ever known.

Thanks to all of you for your support through this experience. It has been kind of a big deal and as you all know, a lesson in patience and letting go and all sorts of things.

For those of you who do this regularly, you are amazing people!
Best,
C

I just have to commend Xtmazz on the wonderful job that she did with the mom and babies that needed help in her backyard. It was a very challenging first rescue experience but she pulled it off nicely. Mom and babies have all been placed in loving "forever homes" and Xtmazz won't have to see their sad faces outside of her window anymore.

One kitten in particular was piss and vinegar. She appropriately was called "Fang". Xtmazz worked with this kitten tirelessly until she was finally ready for her new home. This kitten would spit, hiss, and spiral anytime you got too close to her. And yes ... it was kind of scary even in a pint sized package.

This is a picture drawn of Fang when she was first brought indoors. And believe me, this is no exaggeration!

Xtmazz was dedicated to turning this kitten into an adoptable cat no matter what it took. She spent countless hours with this kitten teaching her how to be a good cat. Xtmazz fell in love with Fang and she definitely became her favorite. It's always the most challenging ones that steal our hearts. All of her efforts paid off and Fang has gone to her new home where she will be treated like the princess she is.

Now look at Little Miss Fang (now Miu-Miu) ... she is scary no more!

Way to go Xtmazz!

Thanks for the kudos and support!

Just to say, one might think Miu-Miu still looks a little scary in this picture, but trust me when I say, she is a pretty little peach. When the little girl first met her she said "Oh she is a lot cuter than I thought she would be!" which speaks to the fact that Fang doesnt always photograph well ; )

Hear hear, great job, xtmazz! Miu-miu is adorable and it looks like she's found her family. Yay!

Miu-Miu looks like she's going to get lots o' love

Wow - just now reading the story of your whole experience and must say BRAVO! I love to hear about other people making efforts to rescue, socialize, and find homes for cats. I know first-hand it's not an easy thing to do, and while there are good people with good advice, space at no-kill shelters is hard to find. You did the best possible thing by giving these kittens and their momma a stable, loving home where they could learn to trust people and become adoptable. I love happy endings and am so glad to hear they all found homes - you should be very proud indeed, and I hope the whole process was wonderfully rewarding!
