Moose is a foster kitten who was rescued from a rural Virginia shelter. He’s a very tiny yet sweet and fearless baby boy. His name comes from Mark Messier’s nickname “Moose”.

POUNCE!!
Pounce
!!!
up north, we never had moose as sweet as this l’il guy! He can come and browse in my backyard any time
What a sweetie!
What a beautiful marked little kitten. Hi Moose!!
Awww….what a cutie!!!!!
awww Moose..such a cute name for such a cute little boy. I need to give you lots of smooches and hugs.
Oh my! We used to get moose (mooses? meese?) in our backyard, but none were as cute as this.
I love his name and I’m sure he will someday grow into it!!
Smooch!
Moose is an adorable little bundle ! Love the whiskers!
not to mention his little turned-down ear…. puzzled/alarmed little cutie!
Moooooooooooooose! So sweet!!!
*chimes in* Mooooooooose!
He’s sooo handsome and has awsome markings. Wonder what he’s staring at?
He looks a bit consternated … I wonder whether he’ll grow up to be a hockey player like his namesake. Love that left ear!
What an adorable expression on little Moose’s face!! He is certainly a most handsome little kitten!
Moose looks more like a moose-ette. Look at that sweet little face? He’s not a moose, he’s a wee baby boy that I’m pretty sure needs some cuddling and I’ll be right over…
What a sweet country kitten. He looks like he’ll find a nice quilt to lay on or in the winter, a warm place by the fire.
I was sharing keyboard space with my chocolate tortie, Coco, when Moose’s picture came up. She turned her head and stared at it for a few seconds and then reached up and patted the screen. Seems she may recognize a kindred spirit.
“Moose? Does this mean I have to grow antlers?”
Little silvery boy.
Little Moose looks like he’s been caught in the headlights. Gray tabbies are gorgeous. I love his little gray nose!
I hope he grows into his name. Right now he
is a “mooselet”
Hi folks,
I’m Moose’s foster mom. I’m sad to report that we lost Moose almost two weeks ago. He was very small and despite my best efforts, he got sick and died. I’m so crushed and devastated. His siblings are doing very well and will grow up to be great cats. I appreciate all the comments for Moose. He was wonderful and I will love him for ever. If you would like to see the progress of his siblings, their pictures are on Flickr.

I am so sorry. I know there are no words
to take away your pain. You did the best
you could for him and now he is in heaven
where he is safe and warm and playing with
my Oscar who passed in 2006 at the age of
17 years, 5 months.
Thanks for your kind words.
I’m so sorry for your loss..but thank you for sharing little Moose with us and giving him love and comfort for his short time here…
I am so sorry about the little guy. I know for sure he’s on that quilt by the fire in a cabin in the sky. Bless you for giving him all your nurturing.
I’m so sorry, you did all you could. I hope you take some comfort from his healthy brothers and sisters. {{hugs}}
…the pictures of them on flickr are gorgeous – I love nursemaid Duffy!!!
Oh Noooo!!!! A stripey right in my own neighborhood. I am in trouble big! He is gorgeous, I love his grey tabbynose too. I just want to kiss it. COR! (Cute Overload Restraints)PLEEEEASE!!!!
oh my, that is absolutely heartbreaking. I am so sorry for your loss. Poor little Moose!
I hope his siblings help to heal your heart
Thank you so much. Yes, having his siblings around has helped. I’ve had to take care of them and my own pets as well. Having all the other fur kids around has helped me heal a great deal. I also feel that Moose got the best chance he could and I don’t regret taking him in. For a short time, he had love and compassion and he deserved every bit of it.
Sweet Moose..
what a cute little guy

I know the hurt–I’ve taken care of feral litters and we always lose at least one–the last group started with 8 now there are 6. You do the best you can but sometimes they are born with defects we can’t do anything about. {{{HUGS}}}
That’s the most adorable “Moose” I’ve ever seen!
He was such a wee darling. I’m so sorry. Such a beautiful wee silver tab. RIP, Moose baby.
soooo cute
P
Moose looks so sweet! I am sorry for your loss of this little one. I am thankful that he at least knew what it was like to be loved in his short time here.
So sad. Yet his short life was full of love. RIP Lil Moose!
AWW, Moose is such a sweetie. Bless his heart. So sorry he passed away.
