special furs
Humans have the potential to create many amazing things. Over time there have been many great inventions that have forever changed the world.
Which invention is the best of all time? That's a tough question. Which would you say?
I'm going with what's in this package.
I'm gonna stay toasty, snuggly warm this winter, just like my super soft kitties! Come on winter, I'm ready for you now.
Special thanks to Oliver for assisting with the photo shoot.*

I'm going with what's in this package.
Can you guess what it is?
Before I tell you, let's take a moment to talk about kitty furs. They are super soft, provide an attractive appearance, and keep kitty toasty warm. Several different layers of furs make all this happen. So how come humans don't have furs like these? Humans tend to wear uncomfortable furs - like dress furs or business furs and they freeze in the winter. They later change into more comfortable furs for lounging around the house or sleeping. Silly humans! Why not take a lesson from the kitties and wear your warm snuggle suit all day?!
I must confess, I was one of these silly humans too until I found this life changing discovery.
These are flannel lined chinos from LL Bean!!
This means I now get to secretly wear my soft, snuggle furs on the inside and my business furs on the outside! And I stay toasty warm! This certainly is the best invention of all time!
dumb humans, kitties discovered this eons ago, now who's the copy cat?
And it gets better - they even make these flannel lined furs with different types of outer furs for different occasions.
I can even get flannel lined upper-furs with business furs on the outside. I don't have any of these yet, but hopefully Santa Paws is reading this.

Pet Finder
Exciting news to share - we now have our own shelter page on PetFinder.com! I'm branching out to informally start my own small cat rescue. For now I'm sharing the name Fourwhitepaws, but in time I would like to find a new name that uniquely fits the rescue side of things.
The more TNR I do, the more I will run across friendly homeless cats like Hershey and Simon, who need homes. Having something like Pet Finder as a resource will go a long way to help them find homes.
The Pet Finder shelter page itself is not all that thrilling to see, but the exciting part is that we can now directly list our adoptable cats. Hershey found Mike (or was it Mike found Hershey?!) using Pet Finder (a friend posted him on their account).
The six kittens are currently listed and I have a few more cats to add for some fellow rescuers. You can see the listed kitties at this link: Fourwhitepaws' adoptable cats.

Handsome Hershey
We had the joy of having Hershey's dad, Mike, over for dinner last weekend. He got to play with all our kitties including the kittens! I think the kittens tuckered him out, they kept going and going! Mike delighted us by sharing many Hershey stories and even some pictures!
Hershey has taken to climbing! He loves perching atop the refrigerator!
It's always good to get Hershey updates - thanks Mike!

He also has been practicing his food mooching skills. Any food left unattended is assumed to be abandoned and thus available for the cat. Unattended can be even for a few seconds. The higher perch gives Hershey a better view for unattended snacks!
Hershey loves hanging out in the cloth grocery bags!
It's always good to get Hershey updates - thanks Mike!

Community Cat Day!!
I'm celebrating Feral Cat Day with my former feral, Oliver.
Extra loves and treats for my special sweet boy. I have him to thank for introducing me to TNR, which in turn has helped many other feral cats.
On a different note, guess what I saw last night? - yep, they were doing it again!!

Nahum and Theo must cuddle more frequently than I ever knew!
I bet they're practicing for the next Cat Olympics - going for the gold!
Willow, cuddling with me
