The kittens are seven weeks old now, and have outgrown the big cardboard box. They are having the most fun in their short lives running around and playing in the entire room. Their small universe has expanded just a bit, so everything, especially my computer’s peripheral cords, is an exciting, new toy. I’m having a [...]

Living in Paradise, California, means living with the ever-present threat of fire. However, it also means living with the best trained fire departments in the state. The Humbolt Fire was devastating and costly, but it could’ve been much worse. All of Paradise, including Mom and I, are eternally grateful to the many local and surrounding [...]

Since we brought the kittens home, Avita has wanted near them constantly. Hearing their desperate mews, she whined and ran around until we let her into the front bedroom where they were. And, she still eagerly wants into the bedroom when she hears them cry. At first, she wanted to mother them; she cleaned them, [...]

I’ve jumped the gun when introducing canned food to the kittens; the crippled male has been throwing up the canned food mixed with the second step kitten formula. His litter mates are doing well on it, but I’ve decided to stop feeding them the canned food and go back to feeding them the formula exclusively. [...]

Well, I can start worrying now; the little female has escaped the big cardboard box. I knew that she would figure out how before her brothers, but I didn’t think it would be this soon. As I look into the box, and the kittens see me, they jump up towards me. They continue the jumping, [...]

The HOP is located in Paradise, California, and since June 12th, a fire has threatened the town of Paradise. Chico, just south of Paradise, is where the fire started on Wednesday, June 11th. The HOP is safe as of today, and we hope and pray that the many fire fighters, police, and other officials work [...]

I’ve been spending more time with the kittens since they’re both not sleeping as much and eating more. They demand my attention at all times, and I love it, especially since they’re responding to me differently. For one thing, they’re treating me like a mama cat. Of course, I’m the bringer of food and comfort, [...]

Since the female kitten was able to climb out of their second house (cardboard box), I asked Mom to bring home a big cardboard box from where she works. Mom brought home the biggest cardboard box I’ve seen. When I looked outside to see what she brought home, my jaw hit the floor; it took [...]

It’s June 2nd, and the kitten’s appetites have multiplied exponentially. Actually, they’ve been voracious little eaters ever since I got them. I’m now slowly mixing the second step KMR Kitten Formula with the first step formula. It has a thicker consistency, which I add less and less water and first step formula to over the [...]

It’s May 29th, and the little gray kitten was screaming again without stopping to take a breath. I held them in my arms and kissed and purred to them. However, the little gray kitten couldn’t be consoled. And, since the gray kitten was crying, his litter mates followed suit. However, his volume dial is set [...]
