They're all washed and dried before being presented to the kitties.<br /><br />We found that most shelter kitties love the company of a soft wubbie, especially when recovering from surgery. Kitties who find a particular attachment to them can take their wubbies home with them. :)<br /><br />I encourage everyone to drop by your local shelter or rescue agency and offer a bundle of wubbies. Remove any dangers like googly eyes or ribbons that might harm a kitty ~ they're not always supervised in their cages.<br /><br />So look again at Screech's photo, you'll see her soft wubbie keeping her safe and warm. I have a feeling that wubbie will be going home with her.Shana Bananahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03173685131174010184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6833186746180765380.post-40048623432666544922009-09-25T14:06:25.136-07:002009-09-25T14:06:25.136-07:00Yay - that is so awesome!!Yay - that is so awesome!!Amy & the house of catshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01345856423713438044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6833186746180765380.post-35193719159533911372009-09-25T11:24:13.588-07:002009-09-25T11:24:13.588-07:00Great picture of Butterbean for the plaque.

Kitties who once had loving homes being surrendered for any one of a variety of reasons, most of which aren't their fault. I send my hopes out to them they'll get a second chance. My second-chance kitties have been a joy in my household.JasonInIllinoisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6833186746180765380.post-77945702086078080672009-09-25T09:14:05.997-07:002009-09-25T09:14:05.997-07:00Meowms eyes are leaking.
