More Smudge!

I realised I was so busy worrying about her that I wasn't taking photos! So last night she was in a playful mood so I took photos. I also took a couple of videos of her pouncing around, but they're on the computer at home, so will have to put them up this afternoon.

Hey, is Smudge trying to play with OUR toy??




Oh well, whatever.... (I didn't realise I caught Lily mid yawn until I uploaded it )



Rawrrrrr - attack the hand!



Angel eyes!



Stumpy trying to teach Smudge how this game works...



Lily's growing up so fast!!



She just had ointment put in her eyes and looks so pathetic, poor baby.



And snuggling with mum after a hard night of playing

Such a precious bundle.

And yes, Lily is growing up to be a beautiful girl.

aww...............bless, what fantastic pictures she´s a little sweetheart and she seems to be getting stronger then !!

Looks likes Stumpy´s pink soft claws are lasting as well

Aww, too cute!

What a cutie!

It's hard to tell. She's in good spirits, and playing and snuggling and yelling at me for food in the morning when she hears me get up, but she's not gaining weight - certainly not at the rate a kitten her size should be. She's not losing any more, but she's still just 12 oz at 5/6 weeks.

Just so you know, my littlest kitten, who was not sick, weighed only 3 ounces at 2 days old, 5 ounces at 3 weeks, and 11 ounces at 6 weeks. So little Smudge could be on track now that she's not losing! and little Dumpling is a BIG kitty now!

She is such a little doll-baby! What a sweet kitten. It sure sounds like she's doing better.

Really??? That's great to hear! I really really hope she's just a little runt

She's such a cutie!!! I really hope she starts to feel better soon! She's one lucky kitten to have you taking such good care of her!

Oh my, those pics are just too sweet!!! That yawn looks like a laugh to me!

I hate to ask this, but I know you are fostering her, have you thought about being her forever home? She just looks so happy with you.

My husband would divorce me if I kept another shelter kitty We also have a limit of 2 cats in our apartment complex - and 2 cats is definitely enough for the amount of space we have.

She is happy here, but I think she will be equally happy in another loving home. I do worry that she'll need a "special" home given her size, and I'd hate for her to go to a home that isn't "perfect", but that's what fostering is about - getting them happy and healthy, then finding a forever home for them.

I think if DH could give up Lily (the fraidy cat), and keep Smudge (the snuggler) he would though (Don't worry, I wouldn't give up one of my babies....)

Can I also point out the big hairy arm is my husband's, not mine....

I'll definitely be trying to find a home for her myself as soon as she's healthy enough to be spayed and adopted out! They'll have to go through the shelter of course, but I'd love to know she's going to a good home.

Awww, she's just the cutest! She sounds so sweet, and I've been praying for her to get better. I wish I lived near CA and take little Smudgie home with me.

Coupla videos as promised
