RELAXING
Barnabas and Quentin
The boys
are really beginning to warm up to us
now. They are just discovering that
there is a door to the bedroom and are
getting curious. Think tomorrow I'll let
them roam about and explore the living
room. Barnabas has turned out to be a
little cuddle bug! Now that he feels
comfy around us he loves to jump up on
the bed for plenty of back rubs and chin
scratches.
Here are a
couple of pics from last night when they
got settled down to sleep. They prefer
the cool wood surfaces to sleep on
instead of the fleece beds.
They both wound up
curled up together on my night stand for
most of the night. Quentin woke us up at
9am on the dot for his good morning
petting session! They are both very
gentle and super sweet not to mention
completely adorable, thank you so much
again, they really are lighting up our
lives here :-) Amy Leigh
Or should I say
afternoon? LOL, late night! I've never
had two cats who were so quiet and calm
on a long car ride, not a peep out of
them even though it took awhile to get
home in all that traffic. Just our luck,
one of the two bridges into NY caught on
fire and was closed, and as we were
leaving a Mets game was letting out, but
no deer!
They settled in right away, no
problems. I'm keeping them in the master
bedroom for now til they get used to us
and their new surroundings. Quentin is
more outgoing than Barnabas. They are a
little skittish because they don't know
what to make of us yet, but Quentin came
up into the bed with us a few times to
roll around and rub against our hands.
They spent most of the night exploring
the room and they slept in their own
little cubby holes. No problems with the
litter box, they used it right away, and
both ate and drank overnight as well.
Right now they are scampering around
chasing fake mice, and I think Mike is
enthralling them with a laser pen as I
write! Think I might have to get a
nightlight for the bedroom, Barnabas
cried every time we turned off the
light, poor baby.
Thanks again so much for these two
precious kittens, Amy Leigh
Whoowie, traffic
was something else in NY! Just got home
now. The kittens are well, arrived safe
and sound. Just getting them situated
for the night. I'll be home all week-end
and have next week off for vacation so
I'll be spending plenty of time at home
to help get them settled in. They are
both a couple of sweethearts! Thank-you
so much, I'll keep you posted about how
they are doing.
Thank
you for the wonderful kitten! I was
so surprised when I got home, and I
saw Amira. She was a little scared
of me though, I think it was because
she didn't know me. She's getting
more and more used to us, and is
less afraid.
She
usually naps on my bookshelf, and I
put the small rug down, the one that
you gave us. She is now eating more,
and is hilarious when she is chasing
her feather toy. Well, thats all for
now!
Just a short note to let you
know all is well. She was
good the whole way on plane,
and in car (cried a little
in the car.) She is getting
used to all of us and didn't
really need a safe room by
herself-actually cries if
she is by herself.
Loves to chase her feather stick and loves her cat tree house. She has
only eaten a couple of bites
for now and some water. She
did use the litter box a
couple of times. Bye for
now.
CAPTAIN LOUIE
Hello Suzanne,
Sorry for the delay in reply. Yes,
he's doing great! We've been doing the
wet food twice a day, but I guess we
still have a couple questions about it.
He seems to only eat about a spoon
scoopful at each sitting.....is that
about right? The first time we fed him
the wet food, we put a couple spoonfuls
down, but he left a lot of it. So he's
been eating pretty much all of the
single spoonful since then. Also, we
tried to get a different variety of the Friskies(adult cat, right?) wet food,
but when we opened the salmon flavor, we
noticed that there were some small bones
in it so we didn't give him that.....we
didn't even think about bones being in
the food.....should we stay away from
all seafoods for now or is salmon the
only one that would have bones?
He's eating the dry food all
throughout the day, but he doesn't eat
very much of it at each sitting. What
weight should he be at right now? We
decided to call him Captain Louie! :-)
Thank you again.....we love him so much!
Sorry for the delay in writing you.
We got home a few hours ago, but we
have been so busy playing with him! He
slept pretty much the entire car ride
home. It only took him a few minutes to
come out of the carrier and start
exploring when we got him home. He is
such a joy and we want to thank you so
much for raising such a sweet and loving
kitten! He loves rubbing his face up
against ours already! He is so perfect
and adorable!!!
When you give him wet Friskies, do
you mix it in with the dry? Also, is it
not good to leave dry food out all the
time?...should we only give it to him at
feeding time?
Thank you so much,
Hillary & Chris
Hello we are in the car going home
now. Just wanted to let you know we got
him
Everything went so great. He Is
perfect! Thank you so much. We will
write more when we get home.
BURLEIGH
Suzanne:
Here are the latest pix of an
ever-growing Burleigh. He is a
delight to have around; very sweet
and gentle. But full of trouble.
(Note the picture of kitten in a
flower pot.) He and Camden are great
friends, and its fun to watch them
wrestle around.
By the way, Burleigh loves his
orange mousey. Camden used to have a
purple mousey just like it but it is
in tatters. I have searched all over
to find others just like these, but
can't find them.
Do you know where I can get them?
I'd buy a dozen if I could find
them.
My final question. What do you
use to give Burleigh a bath? What
kind of shampoo? It smelled really
nice when I picked him up, and
although I don't anticipate bathing
him often, I'd like to know what
that was. I might even use it on
Camden, who requires a bath every
three months.
Thanks for all your help.

NATASHA
Suzanne
Natasha,s flight
to Ohio was quite enjoyable. She
received a lot of attention, but was
eager to get out of the carrier
toward the end of the journey. She
has adjusted very quickly to home
and us. We just love her and she
loves us. We couldn't have found a
more wonderful kitty. Thank you for
raising such a great kitten.
John & Carol
Romeo
