23. all will go back to the shelter eventually

When the kittens reach 2 lbs in weight, they will go back be spayed/neutered and then put on the adoption floor (where they usually find homes within a week). The mama usually stays in the foster home for a few more days or a week, so she can dry out and have a rest before coming in for her spay. I have been working to socialize her little by little and I think she'll make a fine pet.

The house will seem empty for a few days, as usual. I may get another group of fosters if our summer plans permit. I will have these guys through May, so there's time to figure that out.
