In regards to this thread..

The sad news is that the white kitten didn't make it I guess. :( I'm not sure what happened to it.. it just stopped comming to eat..

The good news.. is that I caught the orange kitten, and we have successfully tamed the wild beast! ;)

It took about 3 days. She was NOT happy when I trapped her(using a live animal trap).. stuck her in the bathroom with food, water & litter. She quickly found a suitable "hiding" spot in an empty cupboard cubby.

Everytime you would peek in there, she would hiss.. lol.. so I was always afraid to stick my hand close to her, and she was still too afraid to eat out of your hand.

The other day, I finally spent about an hour with my hand held out.. she finally came and ate.. after she ate the first handful, I got her a second.. and while she was eating that I reached up and finally pet her.

She was soooo happy when I started to pet her, lol.. frantically, she would turn around in circles, eat some food, push into your hand, eat some more food, turn in circles... lol... it was cute. ;)

Today, I spent 40$ on a real litter pan, a brush, kitty bath wipes, a kitty bed, kitty vitamins and some toys.. hehe

These pics are from the last few days, before I cleaned her up with the wipes.. she was pretty dirty, it made a big difference. She had no mommy to teacher her how to clean.. lol

Unhappy kitten the first day I caught her, hiding in her little cubby... making friends with the plunger.

Curious kitten, after taming.. sitting on my desk.

Uhhh... WTF is that?

Relaxed kitten

Playful kitten

Yeah, there was this cat that looked like a lynx in my driveway. Ran like one, too. It was cool.

*scratches head*

That's great. ;)

Bah to the picture being gone :(

P.S. Take her to a vet sometime soon, so she can have shots and stuff. And ask when she can be 'helped'.
Yep, I plan on it.

There's a Petsmart right down the street from me, and they have a vetrinary clinic. Dunno though, might be expensive.

Finding out later she's pregnant of a litter of 12 might not be a nice surprise though ;)

Sorry the white one didn't make it :( But you've got a new friend for many years to come. Keep the camera around.

In a few months you're gonna be having a lot of fun when you realise just how much fur a long-haired cat has. :p

I rescued a kitten that looked a lot like that one about a year and a half ago and it seems as though he's 10% cat and 90% fur. Adorable little scamp though, he's most entertaining. :D
