If she can't stay inside, maybe you can find Winnie a good home. I don't think that will be very hard.:D
Here are some new Angel pics fresh from about an hour ago. She is having her afternoon "indoor" time. Sorry the ones with the ball are blurry. It's hard to take pics of her when she is in action mode!
Mom, Winnie, and I practiced getting into the cat carrier today. Needed to know if I'd need to put on armour to get her in. She went right in. That sort of confirms in my mind, she never had a vet visit or a shot in her life. Monday is the day she goes in and Tuesday morning will be the day!!! Prayers and crossed paws and fingers for us, please? :love:

Angel was playing Tarzan and had been swinging from the throw on my chair.

Oh my gosh, she gets cuter every day!
Sounds good about Winnie and the carrier! It'll be like a little "house" for her.
MAYBE...if she calms down some and you want to try and get her indoors, a large dog carrier would be good for starters. Then she and the other kitties can sniff through the wire (under supervision of course!)
Prayers that all goes well on Monday!:)
On this overcast & dreary day, pictures of Angel are just what I needed.:D
Sooooooooooo Sweet.:love:
Me too, me too! Prayers, fingers and paws crossed, and a candle for you.

Angel Kitten, you are just so adorable! I'm with Lizbud - you're just what I needed on a funky October afternoon!!
You know, there is this spray stuff that helps keep the kitties "calm"...I'm not home so I can't look at the can but I know I got it at Petsmart and it was rather expensive....that's the downside. The good news is it really helped my cats be less agressive when Winston came home from surgery and it made Winston less anxious too....I wish I could remember what it's called....maybe someone else will know what I'm talking about.
I thought it might make Grandma and Chester more accepting of Angel (although that seems to be happening anyway) and might help Winnie adjust to the others after her vet stay.....good luck to all!
With all of us on your side and praying for you guys, I will bet anything things will go off without a hitch! :love::)
The spray is called Feliway, and it is indeed rather expensive at pet stores. However, you can find it through many online vendors at much better prices. I have gotten it from carealotpets.com, but that was a little while ago, so I suggest you do a Google search on Feliway and see what kinds of prices you can find. There is also a Feliway diffusion set, a plug-in with a (replaceable) bottle of Feliway liquid that slowly diffuses throughout the immediate environment.
I don't know when you bought that bottle of Feliway - but the patent expired on it late last year - and the price is about half of what it was.
Hopefully, Winnie will lose her hormone edge some time after her spay, and maybe won't need other help. Fingers crossed here. :)
Angel sure is growing up but she's as cute as ever.:) I hope that Winnie's spay goes smoothly and that she'll become much calmer after this. Good luck.:)
Thanks everyone. I couldn't do this without your support!!! :love:
Angel has been playing like a crazy cat in here this morning. Chester has hissed and growled a bit but not offered to hurt her. I even left them alone for just a second when I had to run and get something from the other room. Not a problem. :D I don't think he knows she's a cat. She's the first baby he's ever seen.
She played until she finally fell asleep. I tucked her inside her carrier and she's all stretched out snoozing her little head off.
One thing, I need to do something about my computer's cords. When I got my first computer all my cats were grown and not interested in cords. I need to see about finding something to put over them.
Anyway, I got a few pics today.

No! I'm not sleepy! I'm not falling asleep in spite of my eyes starting to close!

See! Wide awake!!!

There's no way you could possibly let any of these kitties down! You do so much for Angel, Winnie, Grandma and Chester with your primary concern always being what's best for each one. Because of your love and care, little Angel is thriving at 7 weeks old, Winnie is getting the veterinary care she needs, and Grandma & Chester are starting to accept their new little playmate.
You're doing...and have been doing...all the right things right from the start! There's no question that you're a true PT hero!!! Bless you for all the wonderful things you continue to do for these lucky kitties. Where would they be without you? :love: :love: :love: :love:
Prayers are already being prayed for Winnie to do very well with the vet.
Angel, you just keep getting cuter by the minute! Sending you lots of chin scritchies. Also sending lots of lovies to Grandma, Chester, and Winnie!
I just love your captions on the photos. With all of your good care both Winnie and Angel are thriving. I think you are just an ANGEL Mom!!:love::love:
Moff, I know I haven't been on PT lately, but I have been lurking and following your story. Bless you and thank you for taking on Mama and her precious Angel.
Winnie is so beautiful and Angel just has me in a puddle of mush. Just seeing her pictures has put a much needed smile on my face.
Keep up the good work and I know that Winnie will come through her spaying like a trooper. :)
You are truely their "Guardian Angel."
Now there's a really good idea. Not only to sit on the floor first (thereby avoiding falling off the chair due to CUTENESS) but to put a pillow there!
Try the hardware store or the Home Depot (Lowe's, Menards) for cord covers. My next door neighbor used a piece of PVC piping to corral his cords when his puppy first came home. He also put bright blue painter's tape on the end of his mini blind cords and looped them up over the curtain rods so puppy couldn't get them. The blue painter's tape was just so he could quickly find the cord when he wanted to adjust the blinds.
:love: Hey theres Cutie Pie Angel.. You will be fine.. The big babies will not harm you.. They know that your just a baby.. Just be a wittle submissive ok.. Thats works everytime..
Hey I have never had any problems with my babies & cords.. Even when my babies were very young like Angel they still never bothered any cords..
Winnie was an absolute angel this morning! I opened the shed door just wide enough to reach in and grab her. Then picked her up for a cuddle and into the carrier she went. I had put the towel from Angel's carrier in with Winnie so she would have the scent of her with her. She didn't care much for the bus ride but other than that she did fine. They will call tomorrow after her surgery to let me know she's ok. then she can come home Wednesday after 9 am. :D
Angel was the stinker who was hard to catch in the shed this morning. But I prevailed and she is now established in the bathroom. I have pics if anyone wants to see them. ;)
Oh, I found a cord cover at Walmart this morning. Thanks for reminding me about the cords on the blinds, Cassiesmom! I'll tie or tape them up!!! :love:
Thank you all again for all the luvies and prayers for us all. :love:
Angel in her new, um, bed. That brown thing is a teddy that one of the cats' aunts sent them. It is much loved.

Best wishes for Winnie during her surgery. And welcome indoors, baby Angel! I'm sure you'll win over your elders in no time. :love:
I'm sending good thoughts Winnie's way. She is so beautiful and such a good mother! How could anything go wrong with her? They both are being watched over by Someone who wants only the best for them. Didn't they find you? Nothing happens by accident. Sending loves and hugs to Winnie and Angel.:love:
I have the feeling I was set up for this from the very start. Angel was even conceived on my back porch!!! In spite of my efforts to chase winnie and her orangie boyfriend off, they kept coming back to my porch. :rolleyes:
Since then, things have happened too fast and too well for those two. Like someone was guiding them to get them here. I will always think Leonardo and Luke are behind this somehow. :eek: :D
:love::love: Oh the caption on this pic is like "Now Whats Ya Wants Me To Do".. Ok Angel thats it I will have to gets a Bigger Pillow to fall on & or I am headed to KS to give you bigg cuddles & whisker kissess.. :love: Ok You will be staying in the house now right?? Lets us know how Winnie mom does ok..:love: PS: likes that mudslide box there..

Well, Miss Angel has waisted no time in making herself at home! As you can see, she has taken over MY easy chair. She got up there all by herself! She also just got up on my lap here at the computer. She jumped, pulled herself up by my paintleg and is watching me type this one handed. I can see I've already lost control of this situation. :eek::D

She makes me smile :)
Isn't it wonderful having a kitten in your life again?
Surely you don't mean this little Angel was a stinker.:D
http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...5/000_6334.jpg
I am so glad Winnie took her trip so well. Good girl Winnie.:) I hope all
goes well with baby Angel tonight with her first night indoors.:) Does
Grandma show any interest in Angel yet?
Not WAS but IS!!! She wears me out! but in a good way!!!
Grandma doesn't want to be bothered with the young whippersnapper. She hisses at her then leaves the room! Chester hisses but is fascinated with her. I bet it won't be long before he can't resist playing when she is chasing balls and things around! :D
Hey, Calicos rule! ;)
Oh baby Angel!! She gets prettier every day :)
I'm crazy about her, I love to see her pics every now and then when I need to smile:):love:
I hope everything goes OK on her first night indoors and with mom Winnie at her trip.
I think you lost control of the situation since the day she was born ;)... glad you did.. she´s a gorgeous kitty baby... and surely knows how loved she is by many.. she has many fans worldwide...
read through the thread and watch Angel grow...eyes closed...eyes open...eyes seem to change color!:D:D:D
She is so precious.
Every time I see new pics of Angel, she gets cuter! Get her to tell me her secret!:D
Baby Angel, I think I am in love!!!
These photos of her in charge of your chair are the cutest yet. :love: Where did you sit last night MOFF?
:love: What was that you said Angel?? Oh oh so your saying "Whats it to Me of Thats Your Chair Now".. Your just too much.. Hey Can I At Least Have A Couch to Fall On?? Huggles Huggles wittle one..
