    The girls are asserting themselves with Nugget. He’s gotten hissed at and smacked with paws but no claws out.

    We're going to meet two kittens at noon today to see if one might like us. This is a different rescue than the one I mentioned earlier, a co-worker volunteers for them and is fostering the two kittens. I saw them (briefly) on a video conference call (they zoomed around as kittens will).

    These two are coming home with us after they're both spayed Saturday. They're not litter mates but are the same age and have been fostered together.

    They are adorable and I hope they bring you many hours of antic based pleasure. Kittens are so full of energy and goofy ideas as to what constitutes play such as posing as a plant in a garden window or pushing the plant off because you need more room. LOL. You'll have to share their names. The one in the front looks like peaches and cream and the one in the back looks like an elf or pixie due to their coloring. Good luck with them.

    We're sorting out where to put more litter boxes and how to have a safe room for them for a couple of weeks. My 13 y/o kitties are probably not going to be very happy about this.

    Oh Edj3! Congcatulations !!! They are super adorable. That one in back looks to be impish for sure. Hope the 13 year olds accept them easily.

    Spookiesmom love that sticker.

    Petite - Midnight Louie as always remains a mystery. Love that name

    Edj, how are the babies and the 13yr old doing? Are they adjusting?

    We don't have them yet. Our adoption interview is on Friday, the girls are scheduled to be spayed on Saturday. So if we are approved, and assuming they do well coming out of anesthesia, I think Saturday is the earliest we'd get them.

    Good morning, cat lovers. Louie has a big adventure today. We are going to the vet for his license renewal and shots. He will get his claws trimmed while we are there. Poor Louie.

    You say poor Louie. My cat won't stop purring long enough for the vet to listen to his heart. She said he purred while she cut his nails, too. That has not been our experience.

    Funny how the vet can clip nails on my cats and my dog with little to no difficulty while when we attempt to do it at home it is a battle royal. We have to swaddle the cats and do one limb at a time and risk getting bit to boot. The dog growls and acts like we are killing her. With the vet, just a snip, snip and off we go. Maddening.

    Good morning, cat lovers. Louie meowed the entire trip, but was fine at the vets. They fuss over him and he loves it. He was a good kitty on the way home and so glad to be back. Isn't funny how they have to check out everything when they get home?

    You guys are so lucky. My Wally is so terrified by the vet (unfounded terror btw) that he has to be sedated when we take him or he is one vicious cat, attacking and screaming. It's scary and nothing like how he is at home.

    Then when he gets home, OR when another cat gets back from the vet, he hisses and growls for about a week. It's funny/sad because he hisses at himself if he's the one who went.

    For your viewing pleasure, the foster mom sent a photo yesterday -- this one is Stevie.

    Stevie is actually a girl! The foster mom named them both after female singers. I don't remember who Maggie is for, but Stevie is Stevie Nicks. We'll be changing Maggie's name anyway. Right now, the top two contenders are Carly and Annie (I really like both names and both singers).

    Ah darling Stevie, so sorry, you are beautiful either way! I was thinking he looked a little young to be neutered but didn't follow that thought to a logical conclusion!

    Wishing God speed for safe surgery for both girls and a swift recovery for each of them. XXX

    Stevie is so pretty! And I love the fact that she is about the size of an ink pen

    Petite - yes it is funny how they have to inspect the premises to make sure you haven't moved anything

    edj3, so cute!

    Cat ladies, I need some suggestions. Miss Felix is having arthritic pain and does take medication. It seems she is having problems with the cat pot. I bought her a shallow box and that has worked well, but lately it seems she is in pain to squat. Last night she just stood, since she is diabetic she wets a lot and flooded the utility room floor. Any ideas?

    They're here! They spent a quiet night last night in their safe room, mostly curled together under the bed. This morning when I went in after church, they both came out to greet me purring very loudly. We cuddled, they ate an entire can of kitten food between them and then they played. Now my husband and I are loving on our two boy kitties so they won't feel so jealous.

    Coming out of their kennel--Stevie on the left, Annie on the right:
