Four adult humans in our house - two male and two female. Cats in our house somehow chose me (I'm one of the guys) to be their focus person. So yes every night at least three, if not all four, end up sleeping on or next to me. Want outside? - go meow at Daddy or claw his knee. In the home office...
Going to store today for Fancy Feast pates and hopefully Kitten pates as well.
Also, after reading TCS list of preferred foods, placed a bag of this on next week's monthly CHEWY order.
Both recently adopted alley kittens have tufted ears. One more pronounced than the other.
There's no reason to think there's any special genetics like Maine Coon. Wild bobcat maybe lol.
Anything notable about tufted (and furnished) ears? I like the exotic appearance.

Roger the Fancy Feast Classic pates. Will pick some up this morning.
May have briefly tried the Kitten pate. IIRC Walmart carries this on the shelf. Will try again.

I am happy to report Purina Naturals Original says that on the front of the food sack.
"100% Complete and Balanced For All Life Stages"
So starting tonight we are pivoting from mainly Gerber to Purina Naturals and feed Gerber as a treat only.
Thank you!
I should ease back on Gerber. Kittens eat some of all the food offered. Instead of keeping fresh Gerber out all the time, think it smart to put Gerber out a few (4 or so) times a day and see how the kittens do.
My original concern was the nutritional value of Gerber (chicken and beef) but I...

Yes it could be tonsillitis of similar. I live with three MDs and we will take a peek down Wanda's throat.

I too had difficulty understanding how that noise came of out that little cat.
Yesterday was the first time I heard the weeks old long-hair black Wanda Belle kitten "meow" and it sounds different any of our other cats. Wanda Belle's meow is softer and much lower pitch, almost hoarse. The house was quiet when I first heard the sound and it took me a minute to realize it was...

Yes Gerber is more expensive and that's a valid concern but we were in a hurry when Doorbell's mother brought her to us so we went with what we had experience feeding.
Both kittens are voracious eaters. The Tuxie is more, shall we say, pleasingly plump than the black long-hair but the...
The two rescued alley kittens are enjoying a varied diet of dry Purina Naturals Original, wet Meow Mix Chicken, dry Temptations sniped from older cats' treat bowl and... Gerber Baby Food in the little jars.
The kittens go through 5-7 jars a day so they do enjoy Gerber Baby Food. I started...
I Love Lucy sneaking time on my Mac. Looks like Mystery Science Theater 3000 (MST3K)
