    Helene I keep forgetting to tell you my vet put their birthday at 04/14/10. They are a little over 9 weeks old. Probably weigh a little over 2 pounds. Chip weighed 2.4 and Chuck 2.3 at the vets the other day. They all look close to the same size.

    I'm so thrilled you will get them while they are still babies. Now you can have some of the baby fun. I was beginning to think they would be senior citizens before they met you.

    Thanks again everyone so very much. We couldn't do this without you!

    Carmela dreams of Texas

    I couldn't find Carmela a bit ago. There she was, in the pet taxi. She packed herself ready for her trip to Texas. I told her she can't go until tomorrow. We still need to put a clean towel in the carrier and finish packing their bag. At least we know she won't freak out from being in the carrier.

    Awww little Carmela is all packed and ready to go!

    I have a question, and it's okay if I don't get an answer. But, I see the vet put their birthday at 4/14/10 and they weigh over two pounds. My Jax's birthday was estimated to be 4/5/10 and he weighed in at 1.6 pounds at the vet on Tuesday. Is Jax just small for his age? Or are these babies big? I know they look at teeth to determine age, but a whole pound difference when they are 10 days apart (approx.) in age.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

She's not only back, she lives in the house one over from me. I am as sure as I'm sitting here, that is where the new momma cat came from. They also have another dog, a big big dog.

    So, it will be a never ending thing for me if I keep helping kitties. She will keep getting them and tossing them out because she knows I'll feed them. I can't and won't cover her bum any more. I hate it for the animals sakes but I can't do anything about it. Our city didn't even charge her with cruelty to animals for what she did to the dogs.




    On a happy note: all is set for GO on the kitty transport tomorrow. The kits are really excited!!! It will be a big adventure for them. I'll let you know when they are on the road.
    This is so sad. I can't believe that she wasn't charged with any animal cruelty charges and now she has another dog. I wonder if this was the dog that could've killed poor Lilac.


    Yippee!!! I'll be praying for an easy and safe transport for them.

    Cindy, it could be a little of both. I'm surprised to hear that your Jax is still only 1.6lbs. He's already neutered right? I always thought that a kitten had to weigh at least 2lbs before they could be spayed or neutered.

    This is what I thought too. One of his sisters was not spayed yet. She had to stay there after she was adopted to be spayed. And she was the smallest of all four of them. He is neutered though. I had the vet check. She was very surprised it was all healed up so nicely too. One thing I didn't ask was what age she would have put him at. I will ask that when we go back on the 29th.


    I hope all is well with this transport. I'm sure she'll call you soon. Or maybe she forgot and will just surprise you and show up.
    Our traveling kittens will be home safe and sound by Sunday. Woo hoo!!

    I sort of think my kits may be a week older but it's just an estimate. Maybe mine are just plump. Chip gained .4 pound in 7 days. I think she estimated on the low side because they have to be a certain age for some of the shots. She didn't want to give the shots too soon.

    krazyaboutkatz, I was wondering if that was the dog too. It is one huge sucker!

    No word from Carmen yet. She said she would wait until rush hour was over to leave and would call when she was on the way. I wish she would hurry. I can't hear the phone in the kitchen or bathroom and I need to go visit those rooms soon!

    I'm starting to get nervous. She said she would call when she was on the road. Surely she would be started out by now???
