I found her today in a Wal-Mart parking lot. Her and her siblings had been dumped and some other people took the other 2 but didn't want her because she is black. So of course I brought her home with me. We had actually been looking at adopting a black adult cat but fate gave us a kitten. I am already in love with her! More pics to come of course!
I would say no more than 6 weeks. I had to get a smaller litter box for her that she could actually get up into! She is adjusting really well considering she has had a ruff day!
Well she already seems to have sleeping through the night down YAY! She also likes to sleep under the covers which I love lol. Feisty on the other hand is not happy at all but she is getting curious about her!
Once Feisty gets comfortable with her, she'd be able to learn the ways of kitties that she won't get from her siblings. At least she's already been socialized to be around humans - and apparently loves being really close to them!
She seems to love to cuddle which makes me happy because feisty is not a cuddler. I had to work with her on playing with toys, since I don't think she had ever seen one.
The biggest obstacle is going to be feeding. I use to just leave out free choice dry food but I switched feisty to wet because it's healthier. The only problem is that feisty has already eaten sables food twice now. Does anyone have any tips on this?
So feisty is coming around. She is sitting and watching what sable does. Every now and then she will hiss almost like she remembers that's what she is suppose to do lol.
Gah she's so cute!! And Feisty's so pretty. Yep, it looks like Sable's kitten antics are going to win her over.
You may need to try feeding Sable first, in a separate room with the door closed. Do I see a food bowl on the cat tree? If you put Sable's food up on the top level, would Feisty go up there to eat it?
So feisty has accepted Sable though she is not a fan of her kitten energy lol! Sable has settled in extremely well and her personality has really started to show!
I sadly had to reschedule her apt to next thursday (my payday) I had to use the funds I had saved for her visit this week to fix my truck. My fuel pump decided to give out on Sunday on my way home from work and that is not a cheap part to replace
So sable had her vet apt today and all her test came back negative so yay! She weighed in at 2.2lbs so she is quite tiny lol. The vet said she is around 8 weeks old and is healthy! She got dewormed and received her first vaccination. She goes back in 3 weeks for her booster. I did talk to her about her poop still being runny and if it is still runny when she goes into get her booster they will do a fecal to check for a few other things.
Her poop was completely liquid and after switching her food and putting her on probiotics it did improve some. It is now not complete liquid but still runnier then I would like. It's kind of like she has some formed poop then liquid around it. The vet is hoping it is just from her having worms.
