Thread: Great balls o' fire!

Pyrate is healing fast. He never had any respiratory signs at all. Was just a little quieter than Barbossa.

I don't know much about cats and would never have looked way back into their mouths but our contract said they had to see a vet within 72 hours of bringing them home so we did that and I'm really glad!

The vet said Calici is very common, acts up at stress like adoption time, and to be very alert for any discharge and if so bring back for antibiotics for secondary bacterial infection. She also said to watch because it's painful and the kitty may have trouble eating. Lo and behold it looked like Pyrate was scarfing down his food but he actually dropped it. So I cut his food into tiny slivers and got Wellness canned food and mixed with l-lysine and that ulcer has shrunk and is barely there now.

Both kittens are eating like horses and growing very fast! Their muscles are growing because they are racing and climbing and leaping like banshees. We groom them every day and they love it! They get into everything.

The flashing track ball in the picture -- the kittens have taught Orka our Newf pup how to play with them! The 3 of them take turns batting the ball to each other. Orka has to use the tip of his nose; his paws are far too huge. We took a lot of videos of this but they are dark and hard to see clearly. Will get still pictures. Put the toy under the coffee table but bring it out so Orka can not be so cramped. Kittens are glued to this toy!

Family board game!
