Kitten PICS ARE HERE!

[GeeP]

Aww.  He'll be a good friend.  Take care of him and he'll take care of you.   

Nice dog-proof cat house.   

[spc]

Here he is trying to rip the camera out of my hand


And two of him waking up



He's living in the guest bedroom until he's big enough to get away from the dog

I couldn't resist the helmet shot.  He was trying to climb in it  and gave me the idea

[CndnMax]

not much of a cat person, but cute cat 

[spc]

Yeah, I'm not a huge cat fan, but he's too much fun and way too cute.

I am a cat person- grew up with both cats and dogs, but have had only cats as an adult. I think you're in for a very interesting journey, at the end of which you may be a confirmed cat person yourself.

Authoritarians can't stand cats for many of the same reasons I like them. You can't dominate them, you can't give them orders. They're not "pack" or "herd" animals, they don't need or want a "leader".  You can be their friend, or not.

That is one very intelligent looking kitten. He's going to surprise you.

[spc]

He is absolutely fearless    I have the feeling he's going to be a handful

[natedawg120]

yeah kittens tend to be that way

[Caffeine]

Two words:   LASER POINTER.

My cat totally spazzes out with the laser pointer!   

DO NOT point it in kitty's eyes!

Cute kitten Terry. Very nice of you to rescue an animal. Both of ours are rescue cats.
We have 2 cats A chocolate oriental short hair who thinks she owns everything. And a hurricane Katrina rescue kitten he is a snow shoe seal point that is as neurotic as they come. Of course I don't blame him for being freaked out by weather after surviving outside in a hurricane as a kitten. He has the funniest little nervous twitch's.

I love animals, I couldn't have left him.

[pandy]

That kitten is freakin' ADORABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

[Alphamazing]

Dude. That thing is cute as can be. Good for you for saving him!

[pandy]

OMFG....Alpha said something *NICE* to someone....please...someone.....get me my smelling salts....   

[spc]

He likes to attack my feet.  The little bugger has some seriously sharp claws and teeth
I've got a slightly smaller, more cat friendly female Lab that I don't have a picture of.  The cat will actually attack it.   I almost pissed my self laughing the first time I saw it.

TMI....what you and Alpha do in private should stay in private!

You can clip their nails just like you do your own. Get a pair of small fingernail trimmer and hold the kitten. You can push each individual claw out and snip off the tip. Be VERY careful not to snip too much off because you can cut into their nerve endings and it will hurt them and bleed. Do that with each claw and you'll only have to worry about the teeth.

[spc]

OK, so basically just like a dog's nails but way smaller
Hmmmm, I've got a small file that might work on those teeth

[pandy]

Poor kitty! 

I keep "Quik Stop" around for when we clip doggie, kitty, and ferret nails. Don't usually need it, but I like to have it just in case. 

[spc]

I'll let the vet handle it, he goes next week for all the usual shaZam!

[pandy]

It's easier than cleaning your carbs, especially if the claws are white or clear!
