we just had a big event here:
TA DA!!! Angel just ate her first food food!!!
Well, she tried eating a packing peanut first but I got that out of her mouth. Then she got a piece of Winnie's Kit n Kaboodle and chewed on it. I was afraid she would choak on that so kit napped her. I have some cans of kitten food and opened one for her.
We made quite a mess as she chased it around. I had put it on a small plastic lid and had her on the cabinet. I held the food in place with a tiny plastic spoon so she could get it in her mouth. My goodness! What a piggy!!! I think she would have eaten the entire can if I'd let her. I only let her have a couple of tablespoons. (lots of which didn't make it INSIDE her tummy) I don't want her first food to make her sick.
We had food on our faces, on our head, on our tummies and all over the kitchen counter. She is in the kitty carrier now, washing herself off. Well, the parts she can reach anyway. It's like her food clock just went off and she's starving. I had offered her food just this morning. Nope don't want it. Wait! Now (a few hours later) I do!!!
Funny thing, Chester was sitting in the kitchen watching us the entire time. Not a peep out of him. Now he's here in the front room with us, glaring at the cat carrier. There were a few hisses but no deep throat growls. Maybe she is growing on him. hehe
I'll give her some more food before I take her back out to winnie for the night.
