Tomorrow we take more kitties to the APL to get fixed. So far we have 1 who we named Lucy.
She's Cheeto, Pip, and Mica's mommy and is about a year old. Her eyes are a very stunning green color (Cheeto has very bright blue eyes so we're saying she got the vibrant eyes from mommy here
Lucy's one ear is injured (left ear) but she's still a beautiful diluted torbie
You can see some of her markings and the scabby ear
So to reset the trap and since she wasn't trying to kill us and acting very calm we went to transfer her into the carrier. This is what we got for a good 10 minutes before opening the trap and flipping it to do this on the other end of the trap for 5 more minutes! We got to poke the kitty feet though!
Mother and son. She's actually a big cat, it just doesn't look like it in this picture.
And more of her pretty markings.
If we can tame her, my mom wants to keep her since we can't keep Jewel anymore. Jewel passed away on 9/11 (our kitty Crystal's 12th birthday) between 8-9am. She was climbing, playing, tried to bite my mom during her bath, and eating. The only thing odd was she started getting little wobbly spells for a few minutes a couple days before but seemed normal other than that. I fell asleep cuddling her to keep her warm while she dried off and when I woke up and went to feed her, she was stiff as a board and gone. At least she died loved, warm, well fed, and cuddled up to her mommy. This has been our hardest loss since she was doing so good and didn't appear sick like the other 3. She's buried with her siblings and we all miss her so much and miss that little gray beast following us into the kitchen and climbing the couch to sit with us.
RIP Jewel
Hopefully we catch at least 1 more cat tonight.
