Mancat Monday

Getting all up in your space

Kittens

Hi everybuddy,
I have found something that I like to watch more than BirdTV. It is called KittenTV. Barney and Dino have been putting on some great shows for me. I like to sit back on my couch and watch them run around and being silly. I highly recommend it!

Three Years

Welcome to my Gotcha Day Party! First, I will do the big reveal of big Freddie.This is him on the bed today in our spare room, having a knead on the blanket. He is looking much more mancatly than last time I saw him. This is Freddie during his last week with us before he went to his Forever Home. You can see how big Lishy was compared to Freddie. This is the boys today. Freddie is on the left. He has done a lot of catching up, and is about the same size as my runty brother. There is 8 weeks between them in age. Freddie is fatter though. The boy loves his food, and he has a very accomodating dad!

Freddie spent his first 24 hours here in the spare room and adjoining bathroom. Lishy snuck in between mum's feet when she was going into his room, and the boys responded really well to each other. I also snuck in, and Freddie didn't have a problem. Mum decided to leave his door open and supervise us, and we have been having lots of fun! Freddie has only ventured as far as the landing, but is really enjoying having buddies to play with. Suey is just ignoring us all, as usual, although she has had a couple of nose kisses with Freddie. (I thought I would add, mum only lets us mix with Freddie because she knows he is a strictly indoor cat who has had all his vaccinations. He comes to the clinic mum works in for his check ups. If she didn't know his health status, he would have been quarantined in the same way shelter foster kittens are). Mum and dad went out for a couple of hours today. When they left, Freddie was asleep in the wardrobe in his room. When they got home, Freddie was still asleep in the wardrobe!Today, I have been living with my mum and dad for three years. This is the first photo of me that wasn't blurry or of my bum.Mum thinks I was a gorgeous wee boy, and I tend to agree ;) This is me and my first toy, Marty Mouse. You might remember Marty as the intrepid reporter who travelled between Townsville and Sydney with mum and dad last year. I settled in really well, and was wandering around like I owned the place within an hour. Mum is very grateful to my foster mum, her friend Kate, who raised me to be a confident, well adjusted babycat.

Now, it's time to party! We've got all sorts of stinky goodness and Temptations, so dig in! :)
Love Fui.

Wordless Wednesday

Boys Weekend

After all the fun of Christmas, we are spending the weekend sleeping it off. We didn't know it was possible to eat so much Fancy Feast. We hope you're getting a chance to chillax, too:)

A Message From Moimoi

Hi kitties,

The Hogwarts kittens are turning two months old on Monday! To celebrate, I would like to invite you to a party at our blog. We had a little cake when they turned one week old because we weren't too confident they would make it much longer. To see them thriving seven weeks later is beyond our wildest dreams. So please come and celebrate with us:)

We are also excited because the vet mum was doing some work for has agreed to let her stay on as a trainee, and help her to get her accreditations as a vet tech. Mum spent a long time trying to find a vet who would take her on, so this is very cool. She is very happy.

We were annoyed to miss the Blogblast for Peace due to mum being lazy and not a good assistant. We enjoyed visiting around the Blogosphere and seeing all the globes, even if we didn't comment. Also, the Queen of Procrastination has finally helped us finish off our prizes from our NRL competition. They will be in the mail shortly:)

Our friend Virus is the papa to some of the cutest kittens we have ever seen. One of his sons, Poirot, is entered in a contest to become Mr. Cat. To vote for him, click here.

Have a lovely weekend:)

My Fui

Fui is my big foster brother. He is a handsome big tabby.He is very kind to me, and lets me sit with him and my foster mum. He even lets me lean in for a snuggle.
I love you, Fui.

Bonding

The titanic tabby.And the tiny (maybe) tabby.
When mum had the kittens at the vet for a check up, a lady walking past came in to have a look at them with her two children. She left her name and number to be contacted when the kittens are ready to go to Forever Homes. Their family has just lost their dog, and she thinks they will be ready to add a new furry family member soon. The lady is a human foster mum, and thought it would be nice to bring a kitty into the family who had also been in foster care.

Have a lovely weekend:)

I'm On the Mend

Hi kitties!:)
I am much happier now that I am home. The anti-inflammatory and anti-biotic injections have had time to get working now, and I am a lot more comfortable. I have been able to cut my litterbox visits back to every half an hour or so, which means I get a much better chance to relax. And I haven't cried on the litterbox once today! I've been spending lots of time snuggling in mum's lap. My blood results came back tonight, and they were good. The only thing of note was that I was dehydrated, and the vet said that wasn't unusual after being in the hospital all day. So Fui, mum and I have been doing a happy dance together about that!:)
In the photo above, can you see the white patch on my neck? That is where I was shaved for the test.

In the photo below, you can see the best brother in the world. He has been taking such good care of me, giving me lots of snuggles and cleaning my head. Mum was a little bit concerned that he might have reacted badly to me when I got home from the vet, because it's the longest we have been apart since Fui was neutered when he was 6 months old. I also had vet smells all over me. He was very kind to me though, so she had nothing to worry about.
I would like to say a very big thankyou for all of your kind comments and purrs. I am a lucky little ladycat to have such lovely friends.
Lots of love and snuggley cuddles,

Hello!

It's me, Stella! I wanted to show you how my babies are doing. And I also wanted to show you my brand new collar! My foster mum thinks it's cute that when I feed the babies, I purr, and that makes the bell jingle:) This is my smallest boy. It looks like he will have a similar colouring to me.

This is my biggest boy. He is looking like he will have pointed colouration. This is my biggest girl, who looks as if she will have the same pointed colouration. This is my littlest girl, and my littlest baby. She also looks like she will develop the same colouration as me. Isn't it sweet the way she rests her head on her paw! None of the babies have names yet. My foster mum wanted to wait until the personalities started to come out a bit more. In a week, I will meet my foster dad, and they will think about names then. I am also due to go in for my FIV and other health testing in about a week. They were going to test me before the babies came, but there wasn't time. The babies weren't waiting for anyone! The shelter didn't want to disturb me while I was bonding with the babies, so we have been confined in the one room. If I pass all my tests, my foster mum is going to let me and Fui meet each other. We have been sitting on either side of the door to my room, keeping each other company:)

I hope your week is wonderful and full of love:)

From Stella.
