Be prepared for super stinky litterbox leavings. Food changes always do that, even if it is from foraging outside to premium kittyfood. And kittens are farty.
I've been feeding them bargain basement cat food for over a month now, and they get a varied diet of meat scraps from the restaurant down the street, so I hope this won't be too disruptive to their digestion. Though I do have incense at the ready just in case.
Are you just fostering until they are acclimated or you planning on keeping?
I'm going to offer them to the guy who said he wanted the boy once they've gotten used to being indoors. Hopefully he'll be willing to take them as a pair, since they'd be a lot happier together than separated. The plan is to take in Dustbunny (the younger fluffy gray kitten) once they're shipped out, and turn him into my permanent pet.
I am in love with Matt's kittens!
Thanks for the birthday wished everyone!
I love kid negotiations. At least it is ratty wigs and not cheap plastic things you step on in the middle of the night!
Matt, I'm both laughing at you and with you and at me. Kittykins sucker you every time. I had to pry myself away from the Petsmart kitty adoption center because there was this one sweet oldster (13!) that looked like Pumpkin and Loki mated who had been given up because he didn't like the new kitten and I was all I KNOW GERIATRIC CATS OMG EVIL PEOPLE and then I was all,
no more heartbreak for a bit, Sara. You've lost 2 beloved cats in 18 months, and paid all the bills on them. Let your kittens age.
But kitties are fun. (DAMNIT LOKI STOP CLEARING THE SHELVES!)
I also sent an irritated email to my gutter guy. Installation is nonstandard, not explained and ugly (catcher box is BELOW the spout. This is not standard around here and I don't get it.) They need to fucking fix it. I procrastinated calling, but with the email, documentation. And I've got a couple weeks before they can legitimately come after me for the other 2/3 of the cost.
Wait, you too Sophia? Happies!
You'll note the cat's expression after everytime:
yup, gravity still working.
I lost my cell when I was on emergency call because of Loki. It ended up under the loveseat. Despite being plugged in to a cord tied down and actually tucked between books. Still, buzzed and bleeped for a day under furniture.
Mr Peabody pulled all the cake pans out of a cabinet last night as part of the great mouse hunt.
If we lived together, we'd have to give the cabinets over wholly to our pets.
Harvey says, "Get 'em, Mr. Peabody! Get 'em!"
At least I assume that's what he's saying in his quacky part-Siamese voice.
Not sure if he means the baking pans or the rodents.
If babies were always like the lemon video, I'd have three. If cats are ever like the knocking things over video...oh, okay, whew. I'm good.
CHRIS EVANS, I HATE YOU. YOU RUIN MY LIFE. (What's My Number is on again..)
Just found an email from sis titled
Call home immediately - for fun times!
You know what? Even the half second is too long. Just don't. The fucking fractional anecdote does have my father chasing someone yelling thief, and, well, my mother already chased her mugger, and my father walked into an armed robbery, so ha ha, can't wait to find out the entire story.
