Thread: Great balls o' fire!

Nice picture and great looking coonies!!

Great pic

Two great looking babies & what hours of fun & entertainment you must be having with them,my big MC's still love to have the occasional play with this type of toy but hate it if you catch them doing it,think it reverts to "baby toy" implications & now they are all big babes......That is one toy they can't play quietly with though isn't it !
So sorry about Pyrate,a tounge ulcer is very painful for them,pleased he is on the mend,did he react to his vaccine ?

Pyrate is healing fast. He never had any respiratory signs at all. Was just a little quieter than Barbossa.

I don't know much about cats and would never have looked way back into their mouths but our contract said they had to see a vet within 72 hours of bringing them home so we did that and I'm really glad!

The vet said Calici is very common, acts up at stress like adoption time, and to be very alert for any discharge and if so bring back for antibiotics for secondary bacterial infection. She also said to watch because it's painful and the kitty may have trouble eating. Lo and behold it looked like Pyrate was scarfing down his food but he actually dropped it. So I cut his food into tiny slivers and got Wellness canned food and mixed with l-lysine and that ulcer has shrunk and is barely there now.

Both kittens are eating like horses and growing very fast! Their muscles are growing because they are racing and climbing and leaping like banshees. We groom them every day and they love it! They get into everything.

The flashing track ball in the picture -- the kittens have taught Orka our Newf pup how to play with them! The 3 of them take turns batting the ball to each other. Orka has to use the tip of his nose; his paws are far too huge. We took a lot of videos of this but they are dark and hard to see clearly. Will get still pictures. Put the toy under the coffee table but bring it out so Orka can not be so cramped. Kittens are glued to this toy!

Family board game!

Poor Pyrate! Hope he gets well soon.
At least he appears to enjoy himself playing with the ball track. We have one too and Monty and Minnie often play together. But I'd never seen one with a ball that lights up.

Eating up a storm, thundering around the house, craving more and more contact with Orka our Newfie pup, getting 1 new toy per day.

Eating raw meats, canned Wellness, and Orijen 6 Fish kibble in the transition to the raw meaty bones diet. Pyrate has calicivirus (cat flu), the tongue ulcer, but is recovering quickly, added l-lysine to diet, really helped. Barbossa is one personality plus devil! Immensely entertaining!

Just now, the flashing track ball, wheeeeeee! Mesmerized.

Beautiful Babies... x
