Shelley, nice and playful after yesterday's scare.

#FeralKitten Potato-posting!

Gonna go right ahead and dub them Byron (boy, left) and Shelley (girl, right).

(My mother hates the names, so that may change)

Byron is a loud, messy lil drama queen. So it's purrfect for him.

(Mary) Shelley is more accomplished - grooming herself / going potty alone while her brother throws fits and makes a mess 😅

Wow, look at the difference some warmth and 2 feeds of proper kitten formula have made. Suddenly PLAYFUL baby!

(This is the underweight one)

#feralkitten #kittens

#feralkitten update: Big one's a girl. She weighs 439g.

- Small ones a boy, weighs 304(!)g. Very underweight.

- Both have canine teeth, and the big girl has her back ones growing in. So 4 and a bit weeks old. Eyes looked blue, but in daylight they're changing colour.

- They have *so much* flea dirt. Anaemic.

We're going to attempt a quick n careful bath this evening as per tiny kitten instructions.

Currently fed on proper formula, and snoozing on a rice sock heat pad.

Sometimes it looks bad for the cat, Milky. But the dog, Maron has refrained from eating her so far. Maron may be learning to restrain her exuberance in order to play, It's good that she is restrained so Milky can flee, take a break and come back when she's ready.. Sometimes I'm surprised the cat wants to go back and play again, It can seem like she's about to be eaten..

I woke up wondering how this yarn ended up in bed with me a couple times. Sure it's cute now but it might not be as funny when she gets as big as the street cats that look like her relatives and she starts catching mice and rats. Over the winter an impressive rat was gnawing on a big sweet potato. Luckily the gnawed sweet potato was noticeable up on a little table so we knew to put sticky traps around the basket of Satsuma potatoes. The rat managed to rip itself off the sticky trap but had so much sticky goo attached by the time it hid the floor that it ended up stuck to the floor. Hopefully Milky(Way) will save us the trouble of dealing with traps but it would be nice to avoid the trouble of waking up with gifted prey too though..

Another Successful Cat Toy. A Knotted mask. I yank the cords off masks, looped with a Zeppelin Bend they are much stronger than rubber bands. Good for tying hair up off the neck or beards away from the neck. The loops work to fasten rolled and folded newspaper pages that carry Silky eggs. The loops replace rubber bands and such in the kitchen.. It's nice not to completely waste the disposable masks.. I wasn't able to come up with a use for the cloth part of the mask until the cat started tearing up tissues and flinging the pieces around... The mask in a bow-like configuration works nice..
