Laura, how is Caramella doing? How are her beautiful big sisters?

[Laura's Babies]

cassiesmom- How is she? NEVER STILL! She plays and plays and plays for hours on end... then I realize I don't hear her and have to search for her... she is sleeping somewhere. She provides me with so many hours of entertainment and keeps me laughing. She has discovered the big girls litter boxes all by herself and will use those if she is near one and has to "go".

She follows me all over the house like a puppy and right now I am working on teaching her not to bite and scratch me. She much prefers my bare feet to attack than her play buddy and those little teeth and nails are like needles! OUCH! I only been working on that 2 days and she is so much better and not doing it as much.

She has observed the other girls here and has learned a lot from them. She has heard them "talking" to me so now she is even more verbal than before. She has watched Samantha's tail and studied that really hard and she now realizes she has a tail...... and that she can wag it!

Click on the picture and watch her...at the end she "talks" to me...


Something else she discovered all by herself and immediately figured out how to get up there..


and this.. This is the hallway feeder.


and just to show her off again


A discovery Mike pointed out to me this evening.. A perfect heart in her fur.. do you see it?


It is such a joy watching her leaning all this new stuff she can do, watching her grow and seeing how smart she is.

Laura, and Caramella, thank you SO much for a good hearty laugh as I prepare for bed!

That video is delightful! Wagging her her tail and "smacking" herself in the face, ha haaa, realizing that is her! Checking out that funny big "eye" you put up in front of your face, what IS that? Does it have a good smell, is it food? Nope. Hmm, sniff again, poke it, ha haa. Then her meow, that tiny little "meep" is just, awwwwww! I don't think she was talking to you though, Laura, I think she wanted that thing GONE so she could see her mommy again!

And the heart, and discovering the perch with the window view. Oh my, what a little investigator, learning about her world with no fear, thanks to Momma Laura.

She's such a cutie pie. Even though I'm still having problems viewing videos on photobucket, I could still see pictures of her and hear her tiny meow. Pearl heard it and she had to come over to investigate.

She is irresistible! What a little princess!

That squeaky kitten needs oil!

I agree. I laughed until I cried watching the video.

Glad she is eating. I would try switching her to a higher quality kibble though, such as Royal Canin Babycat, which is what all of my rescues are weaned onto. They absolutely love it. They also sell it in cans now.

I am in the process of transitioning my 5 kittens to a pureed diet from bottle which consist of gerber baby chicken food, royal canin baby cat wet food, second step milk and rice cereal. I blend it all together and they drink it from the bottle. It helps keep weight on bottle babies, and helps fatten them up if you have new ones that are a bit skinny. I do this once my fosters start getting teeth. Mine have had their teeth for about 4 days now. Gotta watch those little chompers!!! Once they get a bit older you can try things like chicken pieces etc. Gave some to my babies last night and they gobbled them up!
