I have had a set back when my friend's mom fell ill and she was never able to come get Princess & her kittens because she had to go back out of state.
My male has found a forever home with my mother who decided she really liked him & wanted to keep him which was highly unexpected. It was just suppose to be a short stay until the queens were fixed. We can visit & it works out well. My mom doesnt like cats (like me) but she loves Freddy & Freddy doesnt care about the dogs. He is my best bud so im glad to have him where i can see him frequently.
Ive decided to let both queens nest in my closet instead of seperating them by cages. Neither queen would tollerate being locked up well. I watched & monitored them. Princess became more relaxed with being allowed in the closet & Lisa hasnt objected. Neither queens nursed the other queens kittens which works out well.
Lisa's kittens were crawling around my closet at 2 weeks old to the day. One kitten is even attempting to drink water, im not 100% sure if it got water from the dish or not but it goes there frequently. I cant believe they are almost 3 weeks old now!
Princess will not allow her kittens out of the closet & her 2 black kittens are very obediant, they never go further then my room under Mom's supervision. Gibby on the other hand occationally comes into the family room where Princess will drag him back in the room if he wont come to her calls & follow. Sometimes he bails somewhere else when shes not paying attention. He's onery. After the advice on here i do not stop her even tho he's almost 7 weeks old now.
Princess will remove Gibby from the litter box in our family room and bring him back to the closet which has been highly irritating when i started finding piles knowing her kittens would use the box if they had access so I added a litter box in my closet, i figured if she wont let them go to it then i will bring another to them. She's letting them venture into my room but not further before she'll start calling them back but she prefers them to stay in the closet.
We are finally truely able to get hands on with the kittens. Princess allows us to handle them & play with them in the closet without acting paranoid. Gibby, with his onery streak, has always disobeyed staying where he's put & you can tell hes the most socialized. We come home & he comes to the door. He hears my voice in the mornings & hes at my feet even tho his Mama doesnt always appriciate it. The 2 black kittens keep to each other it seems. I am trying to find a home that'll take them together.
All of Lisa's kittens respond to my voice like i was their mother calling them so when i go into my room i cant talk or i'll end up with 6 little almost 3 week old kittens coming to me which i dont mind, i love it! I just cant talk when its dark in the room or i draw them out of the closet & tho we use flashlights to make sure, i rather be safe then sorry.
I am happy to have Princess back to her normal self. She's allowing us to love on her again & she goes to bed with me everynight for extra lovins.
Our house is finally peaceful!
Here are some recent pictures! I appologise i do not have names for any but Gibby. I love them all but i have a hard time naming animals. LOL! I am not creative. Freddy & Gibby's names came from the iCarley TV show but my kids picked those. it fit them too!
