Olive has come to stay at Kitty Camp whilst her parents are away on holiday. It is lovely to see her again and to see what a beautiful cat she is becoming. This picture shows the amazing silver flecks that Russians have at the end of their "hairs". This is what gives the Russian's that ghost like sheen.
Olive settled back in with the gang very quickly but she isn't used to sharing and is making it known to the other cats that she requires special Princess treatment and is only here short term.
The kittens have been for another routine vet check this week and I mentioned to my local vet that two previous kittens had gone to their forever homes only to be diagnosed later with an undescended testicle. The vet explained to me that kittens testicles are mobile and it is very possible that the testicles where "down" when examined and that they can move back into the abdomen and out again several times. The vet said that a testicle could have moved up, grown and been unable to descend back down again. I felt so foolish and a little guilty for missing an undescended testicle. I must admit feel a little relived now that I know that it may not have been obvious....more learning.
Annuska's parents have bought her the trendiest litter box in the market, a Modkat. I had never heard of this before but after a swift googling I am very impressed with what I have read and seen. Apparently it is the Bee's Knee's of fashion and has a unique way of preventing litter being scattered out of the box.
I blow up my Bionare air filtering litter box last week as I had attached the wrong plug after cleaning the box. There was a loud bang and a blue flash...needless to say another litter box bites the dust.
This however has left a litter box vacancy.....Modkat has been ordered. Well I have to get Annushka familiar to her trendy litter box ready for her new home.
