Default my new little girl

I'm feeding her KMR that I get at PetSmart. Today I'm getting her KMR Stage
2. She actually licked a little softend Nutro Kitty Kibble off my finger
yesterday. Progress...that's the name of the game. And, I'm not so much
impatient as I am concerned about whether I'm doing the right things for her
or not. I kid my friends about being too old for this, I'm 61. I have a
very active 4 month old male and sometimes I feel like I did as a young
mother with a two year old and a newborn. But I love them both dearly and
what ever it takes to get , her and him, through this I'll do. And you're
right about forgetting the frustrating part. My two sons are grown adults
and all I remember of their babyhoods are the good parts. Same with my two
kitties. Especially next summer when I take them camping with me. I've
purchased a screened dining tent with a floor so they can't get loose during
the day. It's 9x9 so there's plenty of room for litter boxes, food, water,
climbing things and a couple chairs and a small table so I can be in there
with them.

That's great news! I'm happy for both of you.

Patience is not for sale, you have it, or you don't have it. ;-)

Hold on to the rewarding part, when Xena grows and grows, you'll forget
the frustrations. I hope ;-)

Instead of castor oil you could add some drups coffee-milk to her
bottle. I don't know if that is available where you live. It is fatter
then common pasteurized milk.

I don't know what kind of replacement for catmilk you feed Xena, but
I'm told most replacements don't produce much stool.

Just to let you know.....I had some success on Saturday evening... This is
so much like bringing up my boys. Rewarding, fun, and frustrating all at the

Good luck ;-)
