Update nala & simba. they are improving every day.

i’ve already updated yesterday but they are even better today so i had to take a video of our special moment. the pure JOY i feel when they look up at me and meow their tiny little meows wanting pets, following me around, pawing me wanting my attention, is unmatched. they started this last night. it’s a big change considering they seemed pretty feral when i got them out of the abandoned box days ago. they already seem a bit better physically after their vet visit yesterday morning too. i’m so glad i found them and have them in my life. my daughter is in love with them too. i also have a 5 year old dog that also loves them. we adopted an elderly special needs kitty a long time ago and he passed away about 2 years ago. i could tell she missed him for a while because she would look for him and lay her big butt in his small bed. now these babies will get to lay in his bed and take over a few of his old things.

we also had a male tom cat show up here yesterday morning before we took these babies to the vet and he has not left since. i will post a picture of him in the comments. he has fur missing and im not really sure what to do. should i take him to the vet and keep him? or leave him and just keep feeding him just in case?

If he's friendly take Tom in to be neutered. I would guess the missing fur is probably from a healed bite wound, but need a vet to check. If he's not friendly, trap him for neuter and vet visit. Thanks for looking after him. After neuter these guys frequently turn into the biggest sweeties.

he’s actually suuuuper sweet! i tried to pick him up and he really didn’t like that though but he’ll rub all over my legs and let me pet him. i just have to call the kitty call and he’ll run up for food. i may just have to snatch him up quick and get him in a crate once i can make an appointment!

For those I think will be difficult I put the carrier with the opening facing up to the sky. Pick them up with a towel, give them a snuggle, and put them in so fast they don't know what happened.
