    I got one BIG question! What would I do with her when I go back to work? She is to young and adventurous to leave at home unattended. She has knocked over lamps and half way unplugged things and could get herself in a dangerous situation with nobody here to watch out for her. I am constantly getting her off of the counters and table, anywhere that she could fall from. She does things that scare me when it comes to leaving her here unattened. I never leave her any longer than a hour..

    I will not cage her for 28 days so what do I do with her?

    Laura ~ A friend of mine has to leave her cats for 14 days at a time. She turned a spare bedroom into the cat room. Took off the wood door and put up a screen door. They do fine, but they are older. If something like that would work for you, maybe keep the big kitties loose in the house and the kittens behind the screen door?
    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.

    I don't have a extra room or any extra room in my house as it is... THAT is the problem. I never planned on having even 1 cat when I bought this house and didn't want any extra room because in my other house I had a "extra" room and everybody wanted to move in with me because I had the room... If only I had known then what I know now, things WOULD be different..A LOT different!!

    I don't have any extra rooms either. I just use what I have. I do have to do the kitty shuffle when we need repair work done but it works for the 7 of us.
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

    Are the three of them close in age?
    Didn't mean to ignore you question cassiesmom

    They were about 6 weeks old, Caramella was about 12 weeks. I weighed them the other night and Jaz & Jax were 2 pounds, Caramella was 3 pounds. They look fat, she looks so skinny compared to them and all the other kittens at adoption day that are her age but the vet told me a pound a month is right for kittens so Caramella is right on her her age.. She is going to be a TALL and LONG girl.. right now she is all legs!

    Jax has been at the vets since Saturday. He was sneezing like crazy so I sent Blaine text and told her I was worried about him so she had me take him to their vets and drop him off. He is being treated for a URI, injections of antibiotics every day but he is coming home tomorrow with meds to take.

    Without Jax around, Jaz has warmed right up to me where as she always ran to him for protection whenever I tried to touch her. Her and Caramella have become friends and buddies and Caramella IS teaching her stuff. She hears Caramella crying to be picked up and now she is doing it although she isn't really THAT sure she wants to be picked up..LOL! (OH, Caramella is doing that chirping purr cry thing when she don't know where Jaz is and wants her..) She is teaching her to be a lap baby too..

    After seeing Jax run up the perch like on that video, Caramella FINALLY learned that is how you get up there to the perch to get a nap!! I find her up there sleeping a lot now days.. He taught her that in less that 24 hours of being here, something she had been trying to figure out how to do for weeks!

    That reminds me of the initial reaction that Scrappy Two when she first meant moved into the Found Cat Hotel and was so lively and wild
    But she soon calmed down and soon was befriended by My Older Cats , especially Juke Joint Joseph and Moose the MagnfiCat.

    Oh, Sydney just LOOOOOOVES all these pictures of his beloved Scrappy2 as a little girl!
    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.
    CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
