Hey every one, this Monday (June 26th) I got my kitten Roper. I was in another city with 2 of my friends at the Wind Arena practicing TeamRoping and Tracking cows from 6pm-11pm
At 11pm it was over and we stopped at the Gas Station before returning to our city. That's were I found Roper, sitting in the middle of one of the Gas Fill Ups, eating a bug...or atleast trying to. The type of city we are in is not a good one, lots of crime and animal abuse cases. Strays are every where. Roper was hungry and dehydrated, his paws and tail are scuffed up. I half expected him to run away when I went to pick him up but he didnt.
I took him in my arms and went into the Gas Station Store to get a bottle of water.
He is such a sweet little kitten. Very Loving, loves attention and loves to be held and played with. When I got to my house I put him in the bathroom, made him a bed and a litter box. Got him some food and water. I spent the rest of the night with him in the bathroom and I didnt get any sleep.
Roper was good, he was purring like crazy and cuddling up next to me.
At 1pm he used the litter box, then again at 5:30pm then at 7pm.
At 8pm he pooped out a grasshopper. Once the cat food had time to digest his poop was normal. He is just a gem.
Tuesday he was playful but I mainly wanted him to catch up on all his sleep.
Wednesday I wanted to prep him for his bath so I filled the sink with 2 inches of warm water, put a handcloth in there with his food. He stood in it and ate.
Today I went out and bought Kitten food because he needs to eat that for 1 year. The Cat food came from my other Cat who is 12 y/o and people always think that he is 4 y/o he is such a ham. Simba didnt like Roper and he was mad at me, he has been hissing up a storm but this evening he stopped hissing. I think his hissy fit is about over.
I bathed Roper today with Vanilla Conditioner for pets.
He was calm and just sat there the whole time. Now he is clean, soft and smells wonderful.
I need to make the runs to walmart or petsmart and get him a litter box. My older cat Simba has his own litter box and it needs to stay that way. We also need some more toys. Right now he has 2 peacock feathers and a fuzzy cat ball.
He's a spoiled indoor kitty now. Anough chit chat, heres some pictures.
