Thor Sundays


Imrlgoddess

1,138 views

In two days my mini-muffin will be 30 days old by my best guess.  I found he and his litter mates on the 26th of June, four Sundays ago.  While Honey and I are still somewhat on the fence about whether or not he's actually a he or a she, the name Thor will remain no matter what.  

I expanded the kitty condo in the spare room so he's got some room to stretch and play.  I snitched two jingly balls the older kitty's had tried to hide and Little Hooman gave a piece of a project she'd made a couple years ago in middle school (basically some craft cotton balls on the end of a small dowel).  There are little cute gentle pounces and he loves to play the belly tickle-finger nibble game.  Awake more than asleep, we have to make sure he's  either with one of us or near us.  I still haven't let the big cats have more than a long distance sniff...still haven't had vaccinations yet and honestly...my big cats are huge, gorgeous, and kinda bitchy.  They might cuddle him or they might eat him...it could go either way.  Hell they might cuddle till the tummy growls....**love love lick lick...chomp**

An amazing 9.8 ounces!  He's over half a pound!  Tried a smidge of milk in a bowl lid today...not so much yet.  We'll work on it.  I did add an organic kitty vitamin to his food to help out the skin and coat issue.  The fur is growing in on his little paws but his tail is slowly sloughing off the old fur and new skin and fur is growing in.  It looks rough but it's fine.  The potty issue is much better, I do one day of sugar and one day of Pedialite.  Now he's pottying on a more even schedule and feels much better.  I took some candids today, he's moving so much now...it's like a little fluffy black blur!  Before he lays down to sleep, he cleans his little feets and snuggles under Mr. Bun Bun.  

He feels allll the love you guys send, we have a happy jelly bean.

That last photo was the clearest shot I could get earlier today.  He just would not hold still in Honey's hand :my_smile:

He looks so sweet cuddled up to his bunny. Sending lots of love his (and your) way.

Favorite for the brat to hang out?  Chilling in my hands making biscuits.  He's still teeny enough to sit in the palm of my hand.  :my_biggrin:

I've missed y'all. Baby kitty is really thriving and becoming a cat. I could eat him up all day.

      You weren’t ready for college….. that’s why you dropped out.

      You weren’t ready for that new job…. So you were fired.

      You weren’t ready to potty train… so you gave up after a week.

      You weren’t ready to homeschool….. so your kids fell behind.

      You weren’t ready to buy that house…. So you were denied a loan. 
       

      Does she not realize that when you aren’t ready, things can fail spectacularly? I try very hard not to place expectations on my kids that they can’t handle. They aren’t ready for algebra. So I’m not going to force them to learn it. Her thinking is completely flawed. 

      Exactly! There are way more instances where "no, you're not actually ready" is the appropriate response.

      Here's the thing. "You're never going to be ready so you might as well do it now" can actually be good advice - in very specific situations! But overall as a general post for your broader audience? That's horrible advice! It's also profoundly tone deaf and painfully unaware of her own immense privilege. It's easy to have kids & to start your own business from scratch when "from scratch" is having access to hundreds of thousands of dollars!

      And an endorsement from America's favorite fake historian:

      This is horrible advice. There are absolutely times in your life when you are more ready to have a baby than others. I had my first at 30 and I can tell you I was about a million times more ready than when I was 18. Would she say the same for a 12 year old who was pregnant from rape? Probably. She’s that ridiculous.
