Update on Billy White Shoes

For the most part, no news is good news.  Billy is still running around the house chasing everything he can get to move, and rasseling with Grace O'Malley.  He isn't quite as weaned as I thought he was, though.  Once or twice a day, he starts following me into the kitchen yelling his head off until I give him some Kitten Glop.  I'm not sure he really needs the glop all that bad, but he likes it, and I still have some.  This way at least he is staying topped up on nutrition.

I keep forgetting he still isn't even two months old yet.

I suspect Grace lost track of Billy last night.  Billy had crawled into bed with me, and was asleep against my neck.  About dawn I woke up to Grace crying and running through the house. I called her, and she came running up on the bed.  She found Billy, and they started rasseling and ran off together.


A couple photos of Billy:

Billy, sleeping a bit after inhaling some Kitten Glop.


Billy, exploring the top level of the cat tree.
That is usually Anne Bonny's spot, but she wasn't there at the moment.


Finally, Billy in a life and death struggle with a stuffed penguin.  For size, that is the same penguin that was in the box with Billy when he was just a week or so old.



Just for a little variety, this is Grace O'Malley trying to grab the camera strap off my wrist.  About 80% of my photos of her show some variation on this.

wow, billy looks great!! love the video.

kittens do a slew of growing, of playing and of regenerative sleeping, and thus need a slew of calories. Often they end up eating two or three times the amount an adult cat will. nothing wrong with giving him a few extra meals :)
