Merry Nipmas

 We got some nippy toys for the holidays.

The traffic kittens were given their freedom this weekend. They've been acting like thry want out of the room but mom worries what happens if they freak out. Well only one way to find out. 

They were uncertain at first and even after 2 days haven't left their space or the living room. But mom has been able to approach them both and make them sit with her. Traffic Cone predictably didn't last much past a few minutes, but he didn't struggle and was purring. Roundabout will snuggle in and stays for a while - about an hour on Sunday. 

Just need to work on them coming to mom for attention and not being so jumpy when she's up and walking around.

We wish you all a safe and happy holiday season. We know it isn't joyful for everyone and know we are sending you love and peace. 

Love progress

 Amchoor went back to the partner store. Cross your paws that he gets adopted soon.

Roundabout is making really good progress. She's been out a few times now. She generally sits by mom. She's gotten down a couple of times and seems a little overwhelmed but let's mom catch her. She's probably 90% ready to go.

Traffic Cone still needs more work but is still making progress. He will now eat right next to mom, doesn't run when she reaches for him and leans into pets. He's not sure about bring picked up but doesn't struggle when he's being held.

We also picked up another teenage kitten, this one from the shelter. He's on meds but sure doesn't seem sick. He's also wound up and whiny so mom released him from the crate. Meet Wolf - he's about 4 months old and currently driving the girls a little nuts. 

Progess

 Amchoor is still here but likely will go yo a partner store this week.

Traffic Cone is cautious but doing better. No more hissing and able to be approached about half the time. Mom can hold him though he doesn't relax quite yet.

Roundabout is doing even better. She will walk up asking for attention. She's even been out in the living room sitting with mom. She's not sure about the different space and being loose, but she did get down at one point.

They still need work but at least there is some progress with them. With a little more time and work they should be ready to go.
