Bath time


The girls are not thrilled

Play time, fun time!


Beebee has changed a lot over the last few days. She has gained a good bit of weight and seems to be the average size for a 6.5 week old kitten. After reading online that kittens love brown paper bags, I got her one and she loves it. It is so funny to watch her in the bag and Penny and Holly outside of the bag looking on like "what is that?" Beebee will try to pounce them coming out of the bag and gets the girls every time.

Beebee is to the point now where I just have to give her food and water every day and clean out her box. Before I was having to monitor her feedings because she would try to eat so fast and sounded like she was choking for a few minutes after she was finished, but would play and pounce around like a normal little kitty. She eats and drinks just fine now - I'm so glad! I can't wait until our yard is fenced and she can roam around out there. She rarely leaves the patio right now. She will wonder into the grass and seems pretty scared after leaving her "safe zone" but that is fine with me until we get the fence installed. Hopefully this week!!

Welcome, Beebee



Things over the past almost three months have totally changed for me. Michael and I have our own house now with Penny and Holly...and Beebee, the newest addition to our clan. I found Beebee about two weeks ago while Michael, his family and I were picking black berries behind our house. Little did I expect to find a black berry with a heartbeat, but now we have our own little Black Berry, aka Beebee.

Beebee could barely walk when I found her. She was about four weeks old at the time and the only kitten. Her mother is still around, and boy do I feel bad about "stealing" her away from her, but I didn't want Beebee to grow up not knowing what it feels like to have a real home, love, food and clean water every day. BOY was I surprised when it was official that Beebee could be apart of our family...living on the patio, that is. Michael is allergic to cats, but I am MORE than thankful he welcomed Beebee into our lives. Those who know me know that I am a cat lover at heart and have had them since the day I was born. Beebee, Penny and Holly are a team now and all love playing together!

This week we will begin the construction of our privacy fence! You know you have reached adulthood and home ownership when something like a privacy fence makes you so excited! I can't wait to spend more time in our backyard!
