OMG....I forgot how exhausting a baby kitty is...LOL... I got nothing done this weekend except play and care for Louie......yep, Jim named him Louie and it so fits...he has bonded nicely with Jim and Jim has done a great job with his care as well....It kills me, I want to gobble him up and love on him, but have restrained myself although I do love on him. Today he is especially annoying...LOL...he has discovered my embroidery machine and thinks everything in my trays are toys.... he is great fun and the girls are not impressed but are tolerating and keeping him at a distance for now with hisses, although hissing doesn't appear to bother him...

A little devil disguised as a sweet little kitty! He really is cute.

he is very mischievous....

So very cute! Hope he learns the rules about sewing machines and wires soon. Yes, the ferals have such different personalities and ours like to climb (with claws). I'm not familiar with canned air for disciplining purposes. How do you use it?

It makes a loud hissing sound and works better than squirting with water....we don't even have to say no, we just keep a can by us and when he does something unsafe or a no no we just hit the trigger and they immediately stop, and this way they don't associate anything bad with us...

That sounds really useful, thanks. I'm going to have to try that.

So cute Vicki, I'm happy to read that Jim has bonded with Louie, it's always so nice to have lots of loving from your cat. I love his eyebrows! He looks like he is a real handful! Love Chris

Oh forgot to tell you they sell Chew sticks that are like gummy bears and flavored Chicken for the little kitties to chew on when they are teething. They can eat them too. HUGS

Many thanks for the advice on the chews...will get some...what age do they start teething? Omg, Suzanne....am exhausted at the thought of 35 babies and you have varied ages too, right?

by sdrise 20 Jul 2021

No a lot of the kittens are days apart when they were born. Some are smaller. They start teething around 8 to 9 weeks their molars later and then they will lose their baby teeth around six months old. Just like kids I say..
I got another baby in last night. Still nursing. Gave it to a nursing mom and she took it in. This one is 3 weeks old.

Louis, your Biker Kitten!! He is adorable - so cute! I'm happy he is settling into your home - he is a lucky little fellow!!! Hugs!

Thanks, Laura.....he is a gem especially now that he finally settled down and is sleeping....LOL!

Louie is darling, but he looks like the bad guy sheriff in a Western movie in that pose and harness! Try him on black and white gingham and see if he disappears. Great pics.

Yes, I told Jim he looks like a biker kitty with his halter on!

Yep, adorable certainly fits this little guy. It sounds like Jim and Louie are already a team. You are such a great mom supplying all of those great toys too. Thanks for the great pictures and hope his older siblings will soon teach him the ropes of his new castle.

OMG, he has finally tired himself out and is sleeping....we made him a little place to sleep right between Jim & I. I have a tray that has a shelf that I keep inbetween Jim & I for our pop and stuff to sit on and I put a little mat on the shelf underneath and voila, he loves it......now, I will try to get some work done!!!

I just knew that the bonding with Jim was a natural. Loui has the prettiest markings. His face is priceless.

I know, it is hard to not laugh at his antics with that face! We have had to start using the canned air this morning to discipline him....I forgot how little ones like wires....YIKES, and we have wires everywhere, especially around my embroidery machine.....

Oh what lovely pictures and thanks for sharing. Small anything is lots of work but fun. Keep enjoying the fun

It's amazing how different the feral kittens (course we got the girls older than 8 weeks) are from domestic. He has so much confidence and fears hardly anything....that is good and not so good...LOL!
