Hi all, here is a kitty update.
We have seen some real playing going on, but admittedly it is limited. Also some exploring.
They are very cute when they walk around together as one is all black and looks like the gray one’s shadow.
I talked to the lady from the adoption and she advises to give them time. There are no adverse health reports about the other 3 litter mates of these girls.
Right now they are in their ownest room, safe and sound as we are going to have a dog and an old duffer kitty visiting today since my friend who is re-locating from Maine to New Orleans will be stopping by.
I’m not sure how that is going to go over, I’m a little worried about the dog barking, otherwise of course we’ll keep the animals apart.
But, my thoughts are that if they are to be shook up better it happen now rather than in a week or two when (I hope) they’ll be out of their shells and something like a woofer might drive them back in.
To everybody, thanks again so much for your advice and feedback (and yes, silly jokes, limp kitten stew might still be an option - JUST KIDDING!).
Hubby is very impressed with the feedback.
I’ll post again and let you all know how things are working out.
Do that please.
It’s good to know that they are starting to come around.
Thanks for the update, and bless you for taking care of these precious little ones.
Hey, thanks for the update. Your kitties seem to be getting used to their territory, and happy to hear they are exploring more - I’ve seen kitties fall asleep in the middle of a joust-a-bout with littermates. Could be too that you have a couple of “quiet” kitties who maybe haven’t grown into their “personalities” yet. I agree it’s best to keep them separated from other pets, especially since they are still on meds and their immune system may be still fragile. Keep us posted!!!!
Cats, even older cats, get feelings of security from having their fur licked or brushed. Get a soft bristle brush and give those kittens brush time, especially around their ears and head, then down along their body and even their rear ends. You will be surprised at how fast they acclamate to you and their surroundings when they feel loved and secure.
Good to hear they are perking up. When my wife brought home out Siamese kitten, he hid under the bed for several days. Scared hell out of the wife thinking there was something wrong. Likely he was upset with being taken from his litter and spooked by the new surroundings. He was berserk within a month, tearing around.
Any more updates? Are they continuing to improve? Has a vet seen them?
