What are you feeding Thomas at the mo ?

TallGirl

The same as what he had at the breeders. James Wellbeloved kitten dry food and normal whiskas pouches (not kitten). Do you think I should change they are both eating well but do drink quite a bit.

He did not do it on purpose I think he could not stop himself so at least that is something. Booked them in for microchip plus Leukemia jabs on the 5th March.

Personally I would stop the Whiskas pouches. Maybe try a little cooked chicken or fish only for a few days. Then try another brand maybe felix or shops own. I always found whiskas did not agree with my babies. You could always soak some of their dried food in water, if he was missing "wet" food.

Sorry this is totally mortgage unrelated but thanks Vandanfc for your suggestion feed them chicken this morning and last night plus dry food. However this morning Thomas was on the bed and he scrathed a bit on the duvet and sat down to have a poo. Totally deliberate. So annoyed dont really know how to stop it apart from ban him from the bed. He never does it anywhere else apart from in his litter tray. Kittens......

Did not get to the gym for to collect the harness a the road was totally blocked and loads of people were trying to leave the school at the top of my road so could not get out at all. Collecting it tomorrow in stead. Gym tonight and today off to Oxford. Actually on the outskirts so not that exciting. Take care all

Water pistol time then. A tiny squirt to the face if poss, (as he probably won't feel it elsewhere due to his fur coat). Hopefully he won't associate it with you, and your relationship will be okay.

Thanks will try that so fed up with it though. They both insist on climbing onto my desk when I sit here. They cannot jump up so they claw on my legs and haul themselves up which hurts. Put there bed on my desk to stop them playing around quite cute isn't it.



Got the letter from Barclays stating that we had redeemed our mortgage on the 25th Jan 2010.

Still waiting for statement from DH pension but he said he called them so should be here soon. Once I get that I can send it to the IFA and get that rolling again.

Really tired this afternoon not in the mood to do any work. Laptop needs a new cable so has an excuse to go to PC world tomorrow. Still going to pump this evening and has cooked leek and potato soup for dinner (had some for late lunch too).

Yes very cute - but do not get sucked in - you will need to be really firm with them now as they are growing up, otherwise you will never be able to control 16 lb plus maine coons !!!!!!

Hi Tallgirl - after your kind pm checking out my MFi3 situation, I hopped back onto your thread for a bit - and you have a couple of kittens! Lovely - they look gorgeous. Just a thought, are they being territorial when they poo? Especially if its deliberate. Or like children, maybe - have you trained them to the litter tray each time they poo? You can deffo train cats for basics like that, at least, I trained my two never to jump up on kitchen surfaces, tho they could jump up on whatever they liked anywhere else in the house.

I envy you having little kittens like that. Enjoy!

Hi Karmacat nice to hear from you I am glad you did not mind my PM. Sounds like you have had a tough time of it but at least you are getting on with life.

Kittens will use their litter tray and at least we did not have any accidents this morning. He even snug in there while the cleaner was here and still nothing. He still has a runny tum but Jack seems to be fine and fingers crossed. Right now Thomas is on my lap and Jack is in a small kitten bed beside me. Finally got the two freecycle harnesses so can take them out now. Just tried it with Jack he was fine about it but so cold I quickly came back in. Must try to train them to only go where we want them and I think they are getting the hang of it.

Must do some work so Thomas shall have to go down on the floor.
