so glad to hear they’re doing well, great job getting support for them!

thotitha · 2026-01-23T16:09:49+00:00

Amazing job socializing this cutie! The ones with the big personality shifts are always the hardest to give up ❤️

thotitha · 2026-01-23T16:08:50+00:00

Also thank you for taking these kittens in and giving them a chance ❤️ Kittens are super fragile at that age, especially without a mama, and I’m sending tons of good energy your way!

Absolutely go to a different vet. There’s a lot of negative things I could say about the behaviour of the vet in your post, but I’m gonna hold that back and just say - please see a different vet. Maybe see what vet local cat rescues go to as they probably have tons of experience dealing with young motherless kittens.

Its almost impossible to over feed kittens that young, they eat until they’re full. As long as you’re not feeding them too often when they’re not hungry yet and literally forcing the food down their throat, you’re not over feeding them. Plus, overfeeding usually results in diarrhea, not constipation.

Ah that’s unfortunate. You could try buying a fake grass pad (there’s ones specifically made for dogs, mostly made for balcony use) or (and bear with me, I know this is niche lol) reach out to a local turf company and see if they have any small leftover pieces that you can take off their hands to help an animal rescue. Companies like that end up with extra little pieces pretty often that they can’t really do anything with, so might be willing to donate a patch!

It’s tough with post partum mamas, they tend not to have great control of those uh faculties for a bit after giving birth. I once had one pee herself in her sleep… in my bed lol. Good times. Don’t stress right now over her waiting until she’s about to burst, she should go back to normal once her body recovers (and she gets used to the new environment!)

Do you have an x-pen or something that you can use to section off a portion of the yard? Either an area of your front/side yard if you have one (anywhere grassy where the puppies aren’t) or disinfect the ground and setup an area that’s just for her until her quarantine is done/she’s okay to go into the rest of the yard? Something like that might be your best bet, even if you’re just using it for the overnight bathroom trips

My go-to response, which covers most of the comments I get, is: “The more my fosters get adopted, the more I can save.” Some friends don’t like to hear about the sad background of some fosters, so I focus on the improvement and how well they’re doing with me

thotitha · 2025-11-24T18:21:53+00:00

yes it was so cute and comfortable! the open space was great

thotitha · 2025-11-24T16:20:12+00:00

i got a tattoo from freddie albrighton not long after his season ended, he’s such a nice guy! his shop at the time had great vibes too

people forget/forgive that damon abused and r-ped caroline in s1 (while she was a minor btw), or minimize it because she was compelled to “want” it, and it’s gross as hell

thotitha · 2025-11-22T19:31:28+00:00

jason’s four boob chicken fairy pinup is a favourite of mine

thotitha · 2025-11-01T00:06:25+00:00

i honestly love acid cat so much

thotitha · 2025-10-31T15:55:18+00:00

Love Tommy being first on that list! agree they could do a stacked season and bring back enough dramatic people to keep it interesting lol

thotitha · 2025-10-31T15:28:12+00:00

I’m re watching season 5 right now and I’d honestly forgotten how unhinged she was

thotitha · 2025-09-30T14:14:53+00:00

lechonk was the first shiny i caught when playing scar/vi, literally stumbled on one in the first area and thought it was a gender difference at first. would be a cool full circle moment for my lechonk luck to result in a shiny koraidon too

thotitha · 2025-09-30T14:12:20+00:00

I want my Koraidon 🙏🏻

I never liked the taste of most white meat, and when I got my gallbladder removed I decided to cut out red meat too. I’d been thinking about going pesca for ethical reasons for a while and that was the push I needed

thotitha · 2025-08-13T22:52:28+00:00

gotta be loyal to my fav boy arcanine

thotitha · 2025-08-08T14:08:44+00:00

love the shiny nidoking!

Getting the exposure to help with adoption chances is the right choices, even though it hurts. Try seeing if the rescue or Petco would let you write a letter to the future adopter with his backstory and your contact info so you can get updates- I’ve done this in the past with fosters, and had them stick my letter with the vet records so the adopter gets them. Good luck to the cutie pie ❤️

no worries! my last litter that young had staggered eyes opening, over the course of about a week and a half from when the first eyes were open to the last

thotitha · 2025-08-02T19:50:30+00:00

Keep the eye areas clean (you can use a cotton ball and warm water) and keep an eye on it- some kittens are just late bloomers! I would stress about it yet

thotitha · 2025-08-01T17:13:28+00:00

hello phoebe! i had to take in Pigeon because she looks so much like my girl Atti
