Too Tired to Blog - Days 43 and 44

 It's late.  I'm tired.  So here's today's post 😂.  And I'm pretty sure around his nose isn't dirty and it's just starting to change color.  I hope I'm not wrong.

Quick Highlights Summary

  • Fed him moistened dry food for the first time.  He ate it once I mixed it with his wet food a bit.  Then ate it separately later.
  • We've put a second litterbox in the living room.  I may need to put a 3rd somewhere.
  • I found poop in my sandal.  After I put it on.  At least it was dry?
  • Picked up his dewormer to give him tomorrow.
  • Left him by himself at home for the first time as we had something we had to take care of.  Of course, he was in his pen.
  • He made a guest appearance during a Zoom meeting by climbing all the way up my leg and side, then sitting on my shoulder.
  • Asher ate his moistened dry food.  Twice.  That booger.  He's currently sitting outside the room door waiting to sneak in to get another taste.
Better post coming on Friday.  Hopefully anyway.  I'm too tired to think about it today.  Here's the photos.  No captions.  Some videos at the end.








Fear of Brother

This was part of a much longer video of Phoenix playing like crazy.  But the last part was great.  It's like he suddenly noticed Asher watching.  And he panicked and flipped out of the way.  😂



Running Down the Hall

I had wanted to get a photo of the little guy running down the hallway.  Of course, when I tried to get one, he didn't do it.  I eventually got a video of it though!  It's a brief run down the hall, so doesn't have the full effect, but should give you an idea of him running.  Had to split the whole endeavor in two parts.

Growing Up - Day 17

17 days, 7.65oz, 6 feedings, 2 butt baths, 1 dose Ponazuril, 0 vet visits.  A nice count down to summarize my day.  Phoenix has been doing well.  He continues to have blood come out after going to the bathroom, poor guy.  You can tell he's in pain when it's happening.  Let's hope that some more time with the medication will help improve this.  His poop today already seemed better than before (less accidents), so that's hopefully a good sign. Approaching a Milestone I'm always excited when Phoenix hits some kind of milestone.  It's a way to make me feel more comfortable about his state.  I always worry that maybe something is wrong (especially internally), so seeing this normal progress really helps. I've referenced the kitten lady before - here's a nice page from her site about determining age (but also kind of demonstrates some milestones).  Check it out; http://www.kittenlady.org/age, but I've also included a picture from her site belo...

Upgrades - Day 20

Day 20 and Phoenix is still going strong.  He's been gaining weight like a monster (hit 250g today), and I think the poop storm is starting to slow down.  Eyes are wide open, energy levels are high, and fluffy factor is continually increasing. Upgrades Phoenix got a home upgrade today.  I had purchased a collapsible pen that arrived a few days ago.  This morning, the little guy was complaining even after eating a bunch of food.  So I decided to go ahead and upgrade from a container to this new pen. I regret not getting one size bigger.  I'll need to think about a litter box soon, and it would have fit a lot bigger if I upped the size.  We'll see what happens.  I also haven't figured out what I'll do at night.  He usually sleeps next to me, but maybe it's time to leave him in one spot and keep him out of the bedroom?  I just worry I won't be able to hear him crying if something goes wrong. All in all, I'm generally happy with this new pen...

Kitten Concerns - Days 45 and 46

Phoenix is as energetic as ever.  He runs and jumps and falls.  He eventually sleeps.  Then wakes up to go through it all again.  Overall he's doing alright, but our poop problems have returned. Kitten Concerns Phoenix has been able to poop on his own for a while now.  The poops have largely been formed, so things have been on the upside.  Unfortunately yesterday afternoon, he had a pretty loose stool.  And then shortly after, it was pretty much only liquid coming out for the poor guy. I gave him his dewormer yesterday.  There was a lot more to feed him, but I got most of it in him.  I got some of it on my pants... but the majority of it successfully went into his mouth.  He did fight it for the most part, but we got it down!  It was the next poop after that that came out as liquid. We've also recently introduced some moistened dry food for him.  So this new food could explain the change in his poop.  I'll continue to moni...
