Hello all!
I am from fairfield CA and I now have 2 kittens.
My first is a male Lynx Point Siamese name Lint, quite a story on that name, he is about 5 months old was a PetCo adoption. He is a wonderful loving cat and is the one pictured in my avatar.
The second I got yesterday, Little Miss Yet to be Named (LMYN). She is in a bit of a situation I suppose. Hubby said we could get a second kitty so i started browsing the local trading site, similar to craigslist, where I found her up for free. She is an all black 9wk old kitten who has had one flea treatment. That is what I knew going to get her. Once I arrived I found that the living conditions were less that ideal and one look at her I could tell she wouldn't last long in her current situation, She was very dehydrated, she had a very sunken leathery appearance, she is quite thin, her claws were over grown to the point they couldn't be fully retracted, her fur is thin, dry and coarse. Despite all of these things she is a gentle and loving cat. I couldn't leave her there so I decided to take her home and give her a chance. Upon arrival home she had her claws trimmed (which she tolerated very well), a flea bath (with Dawn soap), her first round of vaccines, and a nice warm mix of Blue Buffalo wet and dry kitten food and fresh clean water. She tolerated and almost seemed to enjoy the bath, I only saw about 8-10 adult fleas on her and they all were dead, I am keeping my eyes peeled for more but I was told she has had been given a dose of Advantage 6 days ago. She is eating, drinking and using the box very well and independently. She is doing well and isn't showing any signs of aggression or poor behavior. I am looking forward to her full recovery
NOW FOR THE PICTURES!!
Here is LMYN
And here is Lint
