Update on Lili

Lili has now been in Oka's department, with Zuko, for a week. I'm excited to announce that they're doing great! They started playing from the first minute they met, and they're now happily together. Zuko loves to groomer her and Lili loves the attention, so they make a perfect match. With all the playing they do, we're hoping Zuko will loose some weight (the vet scolded us last time about how fat Zuko is).

The other day we found them like this:

Yes, it's shedding season! Things can't stay clean for 5 minutes...

I don't know how they managed to fit together, but they were pretty happy. I couldn't take a photo of them sleeping, because when I approached with the camera they woke up and started wondering what was I doing. Shame, maybe next time.

Now that Lili is healthier and more comfortable at Oka's, she revealed her mischievous personality. Granted, all cats are mischievous and will play with anything you leave at hand unless you teach them, but Lili is specially creative. Her current hobby is taking off the foam core of cushioned chairs.

I'm just helping you redecorate.

Please notice that her eyes are getting bluer. When she arrived her eyes were a light cold blue, almost white from some views. The vet said that it's a good sign, but he failed to tell me why. I assume that it means that she's healthier?

Zuko is Oka's little boy, much like Kira is my little girl. Zuko absolutely ADORES Oka, they're very cute together! But sometimes I have to scold them when they play rough (no Oka, you shouldn't let Zuko bite you!).

Zuko is loosing weight soon! He's now on a diet.

One of the things that we love about Zuko are his ears. He has some tiny hairs at the tips that make his ears look extra pointy and cute! Because of it, Oka named him "Gato Picoreja" (loosely, "Pointear Cat").

Yep those hairs!

Well that's it for now, I'm sorry if I talk about my cats too much... I'm a proud mommy.

Thank you Kuja, for sending us Lili.

Meet Lili

Remember the kitty we found? I wrote about her here. Well no one called us, so we figured that it was time to give up and made her an official part of our family! She's going to live with Oka, we think that Zuko (Oka's cat) is really going to love her, besides, Zuko has been alone since Kuja died a month ago.

The first thing we did was remove her collar. She seemed a bit uncomfortable, and our cats are 100% in-doors cats... so she doesn't need a collar.

She's now nekkid!

After that, we officially named her Lili. I liked the name so much that I cried when my boyfriend suggested it. It's perfect for her! We strongly believe that a cat's name is very important and shouldn't be taken lightly. We also believe that a cat reveals it's name in due time, so we should pay attention and we will "just know it".

Lili chose the cutest way to reveal her name. One day I went to play with her outside, I couldn't see her so I called. She answered me and walked out from my mom's pots where she had been sleeping, and she had a tiny flower perfectly placed in one side of her ear. She looked so cute and girly! After I told Oka, he said "I think we should call her Lili, she had a flower after all" he made a pause "you remember in Harry Potter how Lily's love defeated death? Kuja sent us Lili". I cried. Of course it was the perfect name!

Lili still sleeps and plays in those pots. She's slowly killing my mom's flowers.

We then took her to the vet, he said that she was in a slightly worst condition than we initially thought, but she's going to be perfectly fine! She was malnutritioned, full of worms, and had a soft flu.  He gave her some meds and a dewormer, and we have to go back for her first vaccines. The next day, she was feeling so much better and healthier that she spent the whole morning breaking plants.

I love her so much =3 I'm glad Kuja sent her, she's perfect for all of us and she can now grow healthy and happy. We're all very happy!

We found another kitty!

I don't know why, but our house is like a cat magnet. Even us seem to attract cats! We've had cats come and look for us. We have many inside jokes about it:
  • There's a cat mafia and the rumor has spread that cats can have a fancy, hedonist life in our house.
  • The house smells of cat food.
  • We smell of cat food.
  • The house smells of fat cat!
Whatever the reason, there's always a new kitty in our life. I carry some cat food wherever I go in case I find a cat (I started it AFTER finding so many cats, so it's not the reason we find so many cats!). Well this morning my mom found a new kitty, this little thing was lost and scared, looking for her home.

Nice to meet you human. Now feed me.

Unlike the other cats we find, this one definitely has a home! She's very well cared, has a collar, and she's even a bit chubby. One of my "Life Goals" is finding a lost pet and find his/her family. Another one is sleeping a night in an Igloo and hug a penguin. I wonder which one I'll achieve first...

She's a Siamese, she's around 10 or 12 weeks old and her eyes are a beautiful light blue! I've never seen such beautiful cold blue eyes... her eyes are so light and she's so little that she can't open them properly when there's too much light, so she looks kinda drowsy. Oka says it makes her look very serious.

I'm a very important business lady. I have no interest in photos.

My Kira had blue eyes too when she was little, but instead of closing them to block some of the light, she kept crashing into things AT FULL SPEED. She was a crazy kitty, and she never changed! She still makes me worry so much... I posted a baby photo of Kira in a past blog.

I demand you give me my pipe cleaner back, or I'll sue you. 

So we printed lots of posters and Oka and I pasted them in transited areas. We gave her some toys, we petted her, and discovered that she's super sweet and playful!! She doesn't scratch or bite the slightest bit, Oka playfully provoked her a little but instead of biting, she kissed him. My heart melted.

We're keeping our fingers crossed. I'm sure her family must be somewhere worrying about her, she's obviously very loved and well cared. I hope we can find her home, meanwhile, I'll hug her some more.

I want that shiny thing you're holding.

She was VERY hard to photograph, as all cats are. But I'm getting better at it.

Until next time dear reader!
