I love volunteering with TCR. Looking at the page and seeing 6 kitties have been adopted (3 of them adults!), makes me feel reeeeally good...and I didn't even do anything!
I woke up today to a few sweet little eyes looking up at me. The big orange kitty, and one of the black ones, now have opened their eyes. I'm assuming the rest will follow suit any time now.
My family + a seven year old came over to look at the kittens today. Apparently week old kittens are interesting for about as long as you can say "aw" before they wanted to go see Emmet and then buy icecream. They were forewarned...the kittens are not terribly interesting while they just lay around and squirm!
Wiggles is the same, no better no worse. The other kittens have been progressively sneezing more and more, and I'm just hoping they don't get as sick as little Wiggles. He's still breathing through his mouth, but the worst of his congestion seems passed, and I'm hoping he'll start breathing through his nose & consequently nursing again soon.
Emmet has a few nicknames : Kitten jr, Piglet, Pigtron 4000. I think the best way to illustrate this is with an event from yesterday. He ran up and down the stairs following me, sliding all over the floor, running into cats...all because he thought "omg maybe you'll give me wet food! WET FOOOOD!". I gave in because I spoil him and he's too cute not to, and then I went to feed Wiggles. Chai's newest habit is waiting by the door so she can run out when I walk in, and chase my other cats away. So she runs out, my cats scream and run at 10,000 miles an hour, and Emmet doesn't even bat an eyelash. He is far too interested in his little food bowl!
