We're Two Sick BoyCats

Cobalt: Okay so we're not really that sick, but I figured it was a good idea for a title. To begin, I tried to make a post last night with those videos but they were taking forever to load and the bean said we had to go to bed. So, I'm going to post some tonight.

First of all, our sickness. The vet called mommy yesterday and said Wrigley's fecal came back positive for Coccidia. Mommy said it's a one celled organism that lives in the intestines. Wrigley had to go back to the vet today to get some pills that mommy shoves down his throat. Even though they didn't take in my poop, I have to take the medicine too. It's not too much fun, but I don't want to be sick forever, so I guess I'll put up with it. Mommy and daddy already had so much sadness with Zeus, we don't want to make it worse for them.

And now I'll show you guys some videos. The bean hasn't gotten many good ones, so these will have to do for now.

This is Wrigley and I watching daddy point the laser behind the couch. When the flashy box is watching, we don't fall off, but when it isn't watching we do! This is the beans' favorite video.


Here is me and Wrigley wrestling. We sure do that a lot. Mom is still trying to get a good video of us chasing each other. We run ALL over the apartment and it is SO much fun.


Finally, this is me playing with our feather toy. I love jumping to catch it. I'm getting pretty good at doing flips.


We hope you enjoyed us!!

Scardey Cat

I'm worried about the boys. They seemed fine when I went to work this morning but Chris texted me during the day that Cobalt wouldn't even come near him. Now Cobalt has always been shy, but he's started warming up to us. We can't approach him, but he'll approach us. Tonight, he won't come anywhere near us. It's so weird. It's like we're back at square one. He is so skiddish. Just a minute ago we gave them their night time feeding and Cobalt is always the HUGE eater, but I was sitting by the dish petting Wrigley, and Cobalt wouldn't even come close to us. It's so strange.

Then this morning before I left, I picked up Wrigley and his bottom was wet. I picked up his tail and could immediately tell that it was urine. In the process he got some on my arm and I noticed there was some poop as well. I got a kleenex and wiped his butt, and saw that there was some blood. Not much, but it still worried me. I checked the boxes and didn't see anything worrisome, but I'm still a little nervous.

I know both of these things are probably nothing, but after what happened with Zeus, it's hard to let anything go unnoticed. Thankfully, they have their first kitten checkup with our vet tomorrow so I'll mention something then and see what they say. We'll see how they act as the night goes on.

Thanks again for all of your warm welcomes, after Chris and I eat dinner, I'll continue to check out all of your blogs and reply back! We have had SO many visitors!! And I'll even try to make a picture post too, because that first picture, doesn't do their cuteness any justice!! Of course, I may be a little biased. :-P
