meet pepper

meet pepper, one of my sweet little kittens! the mr and i love this one the best...because she matches our dog...black & white. she is sooo adorable, although the other 2 are as well. i will share pics of whitey and bunny when i get a good pic. :) they are outside cats, although i think pepper deserves to roam the house.

i'll be back in the morning to share a scrapbook page i just finished up this evening.

my sweet pippi

for those of you who have read about my sweet little kitten, pippi, that i found and was bottle-feeding, i am sad to say that she passed away on Monday morning. I had just taken her to the vet at 8am because she was having a problem going to the bathroom but started to get diarrhea with a little bit of blood. the vet gave her some antibiotics and said to get a heating pad. so i ran across the street to the store, got the heating pad and everything was fine...she was loving that heating pad, she snuggled up with her little koala stuffed animal & we headed to work for the day. around 10:30am, i got her up to feed her again. i was holding her in my hands and snuggling her little nose and it happened. it was a truly terrible feeling and just writing this is bringing tears to my eyes. i just wanted to say it so no one wondered why i stopped writing about her. she was well cared for in the 9 days that i had her and she got lots of love and affection. shame on that man who just tossed her out by the road to die. i did what i could for that sweet kitten, but sometimes nature takes its course.

Tiny Little Baby Kitten

today i had a lot of errands to run and things to do. i was on a mission. the first stop, get gasoline!

so as i was filling up i kept hearing a very loooud kitten meow-ing. it was kind of ridiculously loud. then i saw a woman walk back to a row of cars at the car dealership across the road from the gas station. she was looking underneath car no.1 then car no.2 then came to a truck, which she looked in the bed of. then she walked away and came back with one of the salesman, who reached into the truck and took out the little baby kitten.

so. it was a hot day and that poor little baby kitten sounded so scared, hungry and confused that it was breaking my heart. i didnt want it to wonder into the street since the man had taken him out of the truckbed.

long story short the tiny little baby kitten turned out to be a lot smaller than i thought once i actually walked over to get it. it's eyes are closed and the embilical cord was still attached. my hope was that tabby, our mother cat who is still nursing her own kittens (even though they are a little old to be nursing still in my opinion) but tabby wasn't really feeling that. so i went to the store, bought a tiny bottle and kitten formula but the poor thing wont hold still long enough to be fed, and i'm kinda freaking out! he is so squirmy and terrified all around. what a long day...and i'm suppose to do this every 3 hours...oh boy.

miss peacock

the other day, someone found this little kitten following a homeless man down the street in front of my work. the man said he could not take care of it, so it was was brought inside so we could try to find a home for her. the little kitten took a liking to me...i liked her too, but since we already have a momma cat with 3 kittens at home right now i knew i could not bring another one home...but i sure was tempted. this sweet little kitten took naps on my lap all day while i was working. talk about theraputic!

later on in the evening she decided to go tromping around on my desk and sat underneath my computer monitor for a bit. but then she would attack my hand playfully while i used my wacom pen tool. it was too funny. i figure she's probably about 6 weeks old as she is around the same size as my kittens at home.

the great news is that someone wanted this little one and named her miss peacock (because we work at nbc...get it!?) and she has a very loving home now! how great is that?!
