HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

Super happy to see you guys show up to check in on all the girls in my castle. Yup, that’s right, this is Savannah’s Castle! So, Sage aka The Kid Sage aka TKS and Katie aka Kit Katie aka KK are both doing just great. 

Only little blip on the future for KK is that she must have another dental in February 2021 to remove most of the toofies on the right side of her mouth. That demon “gingivitis/stomatitis” continues to haunt my little tiny sisfur. Otherwise, she is running around at night aka 3 AM chasing who knows what demons all around the wood floors—yes Mom L wakes up! Last night KK figured out how to turn on our television in our shared master bedroom. Of course she did this at about 2 AM!! YUP!! Humans not happy!!

As for TKS, she is her usual hang out, follow the humans wherever they go and always, always be present and aware when they are anywhere near anything that looks like FOOD! TKS is about eight years old now and thankfully has shown zero signs of any health issues. Well—if we don’t count her obsession with food! *wink, wink*.

Now for me. Yes I do have early onset, stage one of CKD. BUT—I am now eating several kinds of awesome low phosphorus with a balance of protein wet foods. And they are pate foods but with lots of fluids! I think I may have to start watching my waistline! I still play when I want to and always try to get my snuggles with Mom L at night on the couch and if the mood strikes me.

Hope you enjoyed our little progress report.

Katie is having a blast!

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

I just have to share some sweet photos Mom L captured of KK aka Katie, finally playing like a crazy cat after Pipsqueak’s adoption and absence. Interestingly, KK stopped playing in the evening play time on the living room floor with Mom L or Dad P. She only played if Pip was involved. She pined for him for a week or so and then miracle of miracles—she BLASTED through the cat tunnel one night with Mom L and hasn’t stopped since!!

KK loves the chase! She dashes and jumps just like she did before Foster Pip arrived. Making Mom L and Dad P so happy and relieved to have playful KK back!!

Can you see her diving in with her bum in the air? And then, she dives partially through showing off her  head in one color (yellow) and her bum in the other (green)!!

Sweet KK just loves playing in her tunnels.

Do you have tunnels you get your kittenhood on with??? Give me some examples in comments and photos!

Monday Meowsie News: Kit Katie’s Progress

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

It has been a while since I updated you all about KK’s progress toward revealing her REAL SELF. And in the last six weeks she has been making leaps toward sharing with all of us just who Miss KK really is!

It all started with Dad P spending time at night with KK, after playing, just brushing her and petting her. She usually retreated to her favorite “posing bench” you can see in the background. But now she let’s Dad P brush and pet her at night very close to it. This was a huge step! And boy does she ever have a purr motor!!!!

Then KK  discovered who much she luvluvluvs one of our new soft blankies hand knitted by Miss Peggy Martin. Mom L put the pink one on the bottom of the coffee table one night and BANG!!! KK was the first one to discover just how yummy soft that blankie is.

The next “oh my gosh” moment with KK is how much she lets Dad P and now even Mom L pet her, brush her in the morning when we are all enjoying our special “morning rituals” together. KK is bonding very fast now to Dad P. Mom L at first felt a bit left out, but then they talked about KK’s past and both realized that the hoarding situation she came from was a woman’s apartment. Who knows, maybe KK has to create a new trust in human females? She sure is doing that now with Mom L!!

Notice how KK cleans her paw, then her face while Dad P is brushing her with her new slicker brush!! Too cute!!

The really WOW!!! moment in KK’s progress came just last week when, for the very first time ever, she hoped up on Dad P’s recliner and joined him for his nightly ice cream treat. TKS is always there for her little licks from Dad P’s finger, but that night, KK followed after TKS and made herself at home.

First she hopped up, then she marked Dad P’s reading light and finally she inquired as to just what was he eating and could she have some!!!

KK’s latest is that she has followed that Miss Peggy blankie to the back of the couch where Mom L placed it. KK has never walked nor slept on the back of the couch like TKS does.

I hope you are as thrilled with KK’s progress as we are. She is so close to revealing her REAL SELF!!! Stick around and enjoy her progress!
