My oldest 2 kids and I have been volunteering at a pet shelter this year and have absolutely LOVED doing it. We mostly help out with the dogs at this shelter--getting them out for walks and playtime. We have been called on a few times to foster babies! First we were asked to foster 3 chihuahua pups. We only had these cuties for 2 weeks: (We went with ancestor names for this litter)

Nettie Mae--her eye was successfully fixed in surgery and Nettie looks absolutely perfect now:) |

We were then asked to foster these 3 little kitties:) These poor little things were found orphaned in a shoe box at a Circle K. They were only 4 weeks old and infested with fleas:( So I took them praying that they would take right to solid food so I wouldn't have to bottle feed--which they did:) And after 8 straight days of bathing and picking fleas off with tweezers, these little cuties were as healthy as could be! We have now had them for 4 weeks and they will go back to the shelter in 2 days to be fixed and then adopted-this is going to be a SAD day at the Meeker home. We sure have loved these little cuties:) (Harry Potter was our inspiration for this litter:)

My husband has not been 100% on board with all the extra animals but has been a pretty good sport about it all:) My kids (and piano students) have absolutely LOVED having the babies here:)
