Got another kitten
Posted: 2006-07-23 01:33pm
It's actually not my cat but my girlfriends. She has wanted a cat for a long time and this thursday we got one from the local cat rescue house in Vasa.
She's 12 weeks old and named Lucky. She is by far the most social cat I have seen and I got two males at home who previously held that record. She wasn't raised at the cat house but at home by some volunteer, she happened to be at the cat house the same day we where there because they had open house day and there's usually lots of people there then. They just brought her in when we saw her and we immediatly knew we wanted her.
Her face makes her look like a clone of our 14 year old cat "Pyret"(it's swedish and doesn't translate at all, just say "pirate" instead) and I guess thats why she felt so immediatly familiar. Personality wise she's completely opposite, Pyret is the most anti social cat I know.
Here's a picture of Pyret for comparison:
We've had her since Thursday and every day she has woken me up in the early mornings because she's walking on my face and thrusting her nose into my nose and then settling down on my chest or in the middle of the bed and going back to sleep. So far it's cute but I don't know if it's such a good move to have a fully grown cat sleeping on your chest
Another thing is that her ears are dirty, there are brown things in her ear, looks like regular ear dirt but she scratches it alot and she also sneezes alot so we're taking her to the vet next week when we get a cage to take her in. She was vaccinated and dewormed by the people at the cat house.
One last image of Lucky. The necklace thing didn't work out, she didn't mind it but it was too big she bites at it now and then, and today she got caught with her jaw in it, that was just awful, she was so scared and panicked and my arm is scratched all the way to hell and back(didn't even notice it until later), I had to just clip the necklace so she'd get out of it. Luckily I always have one of those multitool things in my belt. We got a real cat necklace but she's going to have to grow into that:

Man, you're making me miss my kitty. If there's one thing that will get me every time (apart from a girl I like crying), it's a cat doing something cute, which to me is most things they do. And that is an especially cute kitten.
