Kitty play date

[kuhio98]

Two male kitties (10 weeks old) are coming to stay at our house tonight for a kitty play date. Don't know their names yet.

With my work schedule, we're not in a position to foster and Bobcat isn't up for adopting more cats, but you may remember that we had a reading with a pet communicator a while back who said that Willy is bored out of his mind and he wants some brothers to play with.

We're hoping that Willy will enjoy watching these kittens play and even join in. I've got an area set up for them in the office with their own litter box and food.

As of now, they can only stay one night. We have to take them back to Petsmart for an adoption fair tomorrow. If they do not get adopted, we may be able to bring them home until the next adoption fair.

Naturally, I hope they get adopted tomorrow but if not, Willy will sure enjoy having some brothers for a while. He sure is low-man on the totem pole around here. I hope this will give him some confidence.

Fingers, paws and whiskers crossed.

I hope everything goes well with the visit! Quick prayers said so everyone gets along!

Fingers crossed for a successful kitty play date!

Willow doesn't play with her brother? Geez, no wonder the poor guy's down! By now, the kittens are at the adoption fair, and it'd be great if their furever families find them, but if not, at least Willie will be a happy boy for a while longer!

That will be interesting have Willy running and chasing the two Little Fur Covered Rockets who are coming by to visit.You shou8ld get some high speed fil to catch all the action

Hmmm, how did it go? Well, they are still here. No adoption applications came in for them. We get to keep them until Wednesday -- possibly until Saturday.

They are playing like crazy. Having a grand 'ole time. They have no fear of our 4.

Willy? Well, Willy is scared to death of them! He's hanging out on top of the dresser watching them.

When Willy was down on the floor watching them, they didn't notice him and ran straight towards him chasing a ball. Willy backed up so fast in a panic that he knocked over their crate.

But, no agression by anyone. Just the normal kitty hissy thing.

Their mother is a manx. Jason is a "bunny butt", but Jacko has a stubby tail with a crook in it.

No pictures yet. Jason's photo is on Petfinder.


I'll try to get some more.

It's too bad Willy's afraid of them, when you hope it would give him a play date, silly boy!

I'm sorry that Willy is afraid of them. Hopefully in time he'll want to start playing with them. When I first introduced Sky to Alani & Blaze, he seemed fine until he realized that there were two of them. He wanted out of the bathroom. I guess he felt outnumbered. Good luck.

So Willy's afraid of his meant-to-be playmates! Hmm, sounds like my Mordred - runs and hides if the phone rings. Some are just bred to be timid, I guess. How could those cute kittens not have been snapped up right away? Well, their furever family will find them!

Jacko and Jason are purring their brains out today.

Willy kissed Jacko on the face then got scared and ran away. He is such a goof! Still have hopes that he'll get brave enough to play with them before they have to leave.

Bobcat still says we're not adopting again -- but did mention the possibility of fostering -- only when I'm not away at work in Prudhoe.

I say nothing, because if I've learned one thing in all our years together, men need to believe that it's their idea. (They are delusional!) We can hint, urge, cajole, suggest, threaten, beotch for years and get nowhere. But, one day they'll pipe up with the same thing we've been saying -- but think it was all their bright idea! Used to drive me insane, but now I just say "Great idea!" My acting performance has gotten pretty good over the years.

No photos yet. Took one this morning, flash didn't go off, battery dead. Recharging now.

Here's Jacko's photo from Petfinder.

Kitties are doing well. Running around and playing with each other. Willy still scared and watching them from a distance.

[Karen]

Well, instead of being glad to have playmates, he'll be glad when they go back!

Potential adoption this weekend. Not sure if it's for 1 or both. We take them back to Petsmart tonight.

Jason likes to surf the net.


and sleep on Bobcat (don't tell Bobcat I posted a photo of his belly)



Jacko likes to sleep between Bobcat's knees.


Both of them love the laptop.

You should give them those pictures, that may help them get adopted, especially the sleeping snuggly kitten one! It's a "See, he is socialized and friendly" photo, in case he gets freaked out with all the commotion at Pet Smart!
