Ok.. I have been missing online since Friday. That is because we have a new addition to the Kittyinaz family.
It is way too small to determine if it is male or female for sure. M made the executive motion to her it a she, since that is his guess what it is. I was going to name her Smokey, but Stormy has been coming off my tongue after spending a couple days with her.
She is adorable, and you should see her with Connor. His head is bigger than her. And he is Papa Connor. He is watching over her, as well as being shocked when she comes up and bites him. He looks so shocked that you guys would fall over laughing. And he is keeping a healthy distance from her paws. Now, when I say that, remember the size difference, and you will laugh at how funny it is and keeping a safe distance is lifting his head out of her range. At least he thinks so, she can jump!
The first couple of days of owning any pet is very important to the bonds that they make. I am spending as much time as possible with her, and you can tell the difference. On the first night, she spent time with both M and I. Since that night, she has come to sleep by or on me each night. Since she is no bigger than my palm, well you get the idea.
Even though this is far from my first rodeo, she managed to get me all worried by not drinking. I slowly gave her 2% milk, then 1% then water. My mom laughed and said she would have been fine, but over 24 hrs without water worried me! And then was kitty litter training. I tried the professionals instructions, but when I did my version of them, it worked. Boo-ya! Follow my own instincts!
So it has been a very tired time. I swear. Anyone who tries to tell me pets are not children. Well you never get as involved with them as I do. Cause getting up in the middle of the night, check. Worrying about them? check. Trying to remember when you last got a full night of sleep? Check. Playing and attacking you when you are trying to read, check. And double check. Even a triple check. She likes the taste of the iPad I think.
Ok. For the stuff you came about, (BTW, thanks for letting me blabber on the kitten!). New review was:
And yes, someone who knows her, tell her the banner is hers. As I normally do if the banner they have is not working to use as a link to their story. I need to do a few reviews. You guys rock in letting me know it is appreciated. I have alot of catching up to do.
For stories. This week will start me editing the other stuff, after I work on the novel. I am hoping to get a few things done, but no promises. Remember, new Kitten. Right now she is crying pitifully in the bedroom, as I give Connor and Murphy some time with mommy in the office. They are taking turns on being at my feet. Luckily they are curious more than anything right now.
I have two more chapters of Dying to Start to do, then Clocks. and then Best, before I start editing Sacred. No sex, at all, and I am close to chapter 30. This is slow moving, but I am trying to move it faster!
Hope to see you guys later with updates on chapters. All my plans were blown out by getting the kitten this past weekend, (She is 6 weeks old, but outside, so I was glad to have her!) so where I planned to work all weekend to be ready for her next weekend, well. Yeah.
Just to let you guys know, the week of June 21-28 will be me on vacation. My Mother in Law is coming into Houston for training. She is taking the whole week off to spend time with us, so I am not sure how much I will be online during that time. And of course, when I am on vacation, I tell my beta’s they are too.
C-ya guys later, I need to try to get things done before noon my time, so I can get the kitten out of the room, and in here so I can have some peace from her meowing. (Of course then I will have a kitten climbing up my leg.. but one thing at a time!)
I also worry about my pussy as I do not see her drink, but they do not need as much water as that. And I can see that she does not drink in front of me, but wood as well I’m not there. Apart from the special milk for cats, it’s rare that I see drinking and it’s true that most concerned that I give him croquettes, it’s as if you the patee there of added water in patee while dry kibble are accustomed by cons if you take your cat to the patee, not sure she likes the chunk later.
She drinks quite often now, So I am fine. But I was worried! She loved the food I have for her, so that is fine. I spoil my pets, all of them.
She’s beautiful and I love the name – I had a rabbit called Smokey who we adored. I stopped listening to people telling me I spoil my pets, I don’t see anything wrong in it – they give us so much pleasure so why not? Connor sounds adorable! My 12 year old border collie has loved all our pets – even the 2 cats who hated her! At the moment she has a very weird best friend relationship with our cockatiel, so much so that she gave up sleeping upstairs with us last year to sleep by his cage! I suppose I should be offended but it’s sweet.
It’s good to hear you a lot happier.
