Poor kitty. Not really, though. He is obnoxiously healthy in every
other way. Their weight's as of Thursday the 11th were these: Bandit
at a respectable 6.5# (he's a very long skinny kitty) and Smoky the
House Puma at a whopping 8.75#!! Not too bad for a couple of 6-month
olds:-). Whenever they yawn, I look at their adult canines and try to
extrapolate how much larger they will get. They both have quite a ways
to go! It'll definitely be interesting to see how big Smoky is when he
finally stops growing.
I dropped them off at the vet's Thursday morning and my mom wanted me to
do some grocery shopping for her and while I was at the store I was
checking out the pet stuff (doesn't everyone?) and they had the best
selection of cat toys I've seen. So. I bought some. OK. A lot. :-).
And the best part is, that everything was a big hit:-). Ninja just used
to give me this look like: excuse me? Is that for me? Why? Yeah,
mom, whatever. (I really miss her attitude!!)
I'll keep y'all posted on Smoky's diarrhea problem....
Sending excess kitten energy and purrs to all in need...........
