Blacky´s Trip

Blacky took a trip to the doctors today. We are positive she is a girl, and that she is NOT pregnant. Thank You. Blacky got all of her required shots, and came home. She needed to get her ears cleaned because she has ear mites. We have to clean them again in three days in order for them to all go away.

Blacky was having a hard time adjusting to the kennel. We needed to keep her in the house because she was drowsy and couldn´t go outside until her antibiotics wore off. She meowed a lot, feel asleep a lot, and woke up a lot. I finally lied down next to the kennel and soft talked Blacky to sleep. It took about five minutes, and she got comfortable and closed her eyes. Then I found out how comfortable she was with me, and how much she trusted me when I began to get up and leave and she opened her eyes slightly, and then stayed lying there.

She is so adorable, and we will continue to feed her as she comes, and turn on the heat outside for her. Blacky has become a part of our family.

The Inside Looking Out

Meow, still very timid and afraid, has been so curious towards the outside, that he actually jumped onto the counter, and out the window three times. The first time was when it was very steamy in the kitchen from cooking, and the windows were left open above the counter. Meow jumped on the counter, and jumped out the window. We didn´t notice, and closed the windows. Then he threw his body against the window as hard as he could, to assure us he was outside. We took him inside, and hoped since he was so tramatized, that he wouldn do it again. Then he did it again.. and again, and now we aren´t opening the window above the counter anymore. He knows that he is being bad when he does things like this, but he is too curious to pass up the moment.
