Catsitting HELP PLEASE - Page 2

post #31 of 33
I have to admit, young kitty energy and those midnight spaz outs have always made me smile. Even hearing an upstairs neighbor's cat spazzing out and killing a door stopper all night make me smile, thinking of those kitty antics. But it does get old, and when you are already stressed, tired, and having trouble sleeping, it gets really hard to handle that much energy. It's almost over now though. You're doing great.

I for one got a little miffed at my Cuddles insistently purring and yammering and patting my face to wake me up. It almost always has me waking up refreshed and smiling, because it's him telling me he loves me (excuse me, telling me he wants his canned food). But I had only been asleep 3 hours, so in this case, insistent rubbing of the head on my nose was not making me smile, just making me aggravated.

I think we all need a kitty vacation from time to time. You'll be able to give Winnie back soon, and you'll appreciate your aloof, disinterested independent boys more than ever. Promise.

Thanks for the happy update! I haven't had a baby kitten in 11 years, that was Tolly. Mazy was six months old when she came but she never stopped running until she was close to two years old. She still is extremely active at 6 years old.

Winnie went home today. It's sad, but I'll see her when I go to babysit. They boys seem a bit confused; they wandering around sniffing things and TG meowed a bit and is now looking at me with very sad-looking eyes. Maybe I'll catsit her again some day.

Again, thanks for all your lovely comments and giving me the benefit of your own experience with cats. I feel like I've gotten to know yours while describing my kitties.

Hugs to all of you, my angels!
