Kitten Diaries

Amarula's 1st Kitten Diary - April 2006 to July
We are 13 weeks old now!
Day 90 - July 7, 2006
Braveheart was the first of our Mel's to leave us as today, she went to live with her new family, Linda and Peter. Also sharing her home is her "sister" Salt which is really wonderful. I think the transition of leaving us always is a bit easier for the babies if they are going with one of their litter mates. What makes Braveheart's departure very difficult is the fact that she should also have been leaving with her sister Patriot who is now in Rainbow Bridge so this was a very emotional day, not only for ourselves, but also for Linda and Peter. I just hope and pray that Braveheart (as well as Salt) will help to ease the pain that their new family feel over their loss. I tried desperately to take decent photos of Braveheart today but she was having none of it. She just wanted to chill out and every time I pointed the camera at her, she turned her head the opposite direction which is so very typical of a stubborn, Oriental Black! She is such a darling and I know that she is going to be so very happy in her new home.
 
Day 87 - July 4, 2006
Yet another day of house moving, no diary photos and a miniscule entry! It's now been 24 hours since the vaccinations were given and I'm delighted to report that as per usual, we have had no side effects at all which is a great relief. Last night, when the temperature had dropped, all 6 babies spent hours out in the cat run playing chase games and having the time of their lives. Normally, I "put them to bed" at around 10:30pm which means making sure they are all in their back room, closing the door and also closing the door to the cat run, however they were having such fun last night that I let them stay up late for once and didn't actually put them all to bed until midnight.
 
Day 86 - July 3, 2006
Photos are definitely impossible at the moment but I did want to put a short entry online today because as you know, the babies' had their last set of vaccinations this morning and were check over by our vet for the last time. I was really delighted with how well behaved the babies were, even as they were being examined and being injected. The only baby who let out any sort of protest was Pepper. Mad Max on the other hand couldn't wait to get out of the carrier and get on the vet's table. Vinegar had just been done and Mad Max was right at the front of the carrier, he watched what was happening to Vinegar and then started pulling at the door so he could get out. When that didn't work, he thought he would try to gnaw his way out through the carrier bars! On the whole though, I'm really happy with how well it went this morning. The babies are all zonked out at the moment which is due to the heat more than the vaccinations however we have the air conditioning on in the back room so that we can keep them as cool as possible.
 
Day 85 - July 2, 2006
No entry today due to house move.
 
Day 84 - July 1, 2006
There is no entry for today as I was at the Wiltshire & District Cat Club show with Toussaint so the babies were left in Graham's care for the day and they were just fine. They all enjoyed their fish meal that Graham cooked for them this morning while I was gone. It was an incredibly long day for me however Toussaint did very well and I was thrilled with her results.
 
Day 83 - June 30, 2006
No entry today due to house move.
