Recap: Monday, February 29, 2016

LAPS:

Rio

• Rio is hanging out at Hotel Jules with Foster Mom Jules. Jules posted of Rio making biscuits.
  

Season, Shiver, Puddles, and Blossom

• Season and Shiver are the daughters of Kestrel, who is currently a resident at TinyKittens HQ. They come from the other side of the property where the feral colony is, from a neighbour’s of the Property Owner. They are tame but aren’t pets. Puddles and Blossom are also from that same area and situation. All four are doing well.

• Season and Shiver are doing well in the communal room at LAPS.
• Puddles and Blossom are also doing well, currently in an iso room for a few days.

Mattie

• No updates yet.

Cupcake Kittens

• LAPS posted some super cute pictures of the kittens.

TinyKittens HQ:

Cassidy

• No updates yet today.

People for Happier Cats/TNR site:

General Notes

• The Langley Advance published an article today about catios that features pictures of “our” own Neelix and Jingle Bell. (As an aside, I’m apparently geographically-challenged when it comes to BC — I had no idea that Beautiful World Living Environments was on Vancouver Island, though it does now make much more sense that Shelly was giving his brochures to adopters who live on the island.)

• Kimsies was on feeding station duty today. (See her section near the bottom of the page for her videos and pictures featuring, among others, Starling, Sloane, Rollins, Caprice, Eaton.) She saw many of the regulars, but she also saw infrequent visitor Macey, who she thinks is sporting a baby bump.

The cams and Livestream feeds

We currently have two live streaming webcams at TKHQ:

• The Neelix: Kittenwatch, Feral-style! stream: This is the stream showing the purple room upstairs where Neelix and (temporarily) Eliann are residing.
• The TinyKittens VIP cam stream: When there are only two (or fewer) rooms of cats/kittens, this stream is usually showing an alternate view of one of the rooms. Wherever it’s pointing at any given moment, this special stream/feed is only accessible for a monthly or annual fee. (Consider it a way to donate to TinyKittens monthly, with the VIP cam feed as a perk.)

Inactive/intermittent streams:

• The Feral Recovery Room stream: This, as the name would suggest, is the stream that used to be on the upstairs room with its various residents until they went to their forever homes (or back to the Happy Forest); after Enara left on February 20, the feed was set to show a 23-minute loop of feral colony videos. The feral loop DVR feed went offline just after 10:00 on February 23, just before the World Spay Day feed went live.
• The Cassidy the Two-Legged #MiracleKitten stream: This occasionally shows videos of Cassidy over at Shelly’s house.
• The Jingle Bell’s Romper Room of Delight stream: This was the stream that was on Jingles and his crew at various times. It was also the stream that was on Noelle and Elf when they were the last kittens of that group still at TKHQ. The stream went offline on February 27 and won’t be coming back up again any time soon.

Noelle and Elf

• The girls have not been viewable on Livestream for a couple of days now. Shelly mentioned today that she is moving them to another room/place. (She didn’t say exactly where so perhaps she’s just giving them the run of the downstairs like she used to do with the non-feral-colony kittens when they got older).
• The Visits:
  • Amanda visited in the morning. (Her visit, of course, wasn’t on cam but you can hear her arrive at TKHQ in the video of Shelly’s Neelix and Kestrel video as she greeted Savina as she passed by the catios.) She posted a video and some pictures of the girls from her visit:

  • Kimsies also visited. Now that they’ve been officially cleared of ringworm, there’s no need for iso gear and Kimsies was free to shower them in (and be showered by) kisses. (See her section below for them — there are too many to put here.)

Feral Recovery Ward

Current Residents

• Savina is currently relaxing (hopefully) in the Decompression Suite of the feral recovery wing. She’s enjoying fine catio dining, luxurious glamping in her own feral den, quiet, and mood lighting…all designed for a stress-free stay at TinyKittens HQ. Here’s hoping she read the brochure. 😉
• Neelix is currently in residence on the catio.
• Neelix’s roommate in the recovery ward until today was Eliann, who was hanging out for a couple of days to receive her pain meds and make sure she was recovering well from her spay surgery. She headed back to the Happy Forest today; Kimsies uploaded a video of her release:
  

Overnight Notes:

• Early in the morning (especially from around 04:00 or so onward), Neelix got particularly hissy and growly at Eliann and Eliann got particularly determined to find a way out of the catio. They seem to get along OK during the day, though.
