Kitteh update

Well, momcat is doing well, I let her free on Saturday and she took off like a gunshot, she couldn't have been happier to be free.  I saw her Sunday, and I've been feeding her in the same old location, hoping she brings the black kitten back to that spot, so I can trap the black kitten and work on taming it.  Momcat is staying well-fed, at least, so that'll help her heal from her surgery.  I hope she is keeping a low-profile, but who knows.  I am probably foolish to think that she would bring her kitten to be trapped.  She eats next to that trap but won't fall for MY tricksy human ways again!

The kittehs are doing pretty well.  They still hiss a little bit at me, but they have stopped spitting at me and trying to swat my hands.  They realize that the hands bring the delicious spoonfuls of all-meat pureed baby food, which they LOOOOOVE, so they tolerate my presence.  They are even venturing out into the other parts of the cage when I am not looking---they even ate a whole bowl of kitten kibble last night.  They are very skinny so I am encouraging them to eat as much as possible.   Today I picked them both up for a few minutes and held them in my lap and tried to get them to eat some baby food.  Gray tabby went for it, but orange wasn't having my bullshit.  They both were glad to get back into the cage, huddled in their corner.  Baby steps with the feral kittens, baby steps.  It is hard, because I want to cuddle them and kiss their (de-wormed) bellies, but obviously that will be a while.

Anyway, I set the trap again today for the last kitteh, I hope I catch him/her, but if not, I'll keep moving the trap around that area and hope that I just luck out.  Persistence (and wet food) is the key.

Thank you all for the generous donations!
