Trapped two more kitties from the colony. Lady Marmalade and Pumpkin, our kitten. We also call Lady “Mama” Marmalade because she’s had several litters since we started feeding her. She is FIERCE. All the other kitties stay away from her because she will CUT YOU. Went right into the trap, though. Pumpkin, too. Whew.
They get fixed tomorrow morning and then it’s just two more kitties to go: Baby Marmalade (Mama’s kitten, obvs, who looks just like her), and Sweet Boy, who’s the head tomcat of the group. Both of those two are verrryyyy shy, and they don’t come around every night for food, so I’m crossing my fingers they show up next week. To that same point, though, I hadn’t seen Mama in a few days either, so they could just be coming for food when I’m not around. They didn’t come tonight, but then again I actually forgot I wasn’t supposed to feed them last night so as to make SURE everyone showed up for grub tonight. Oops. Still pretty successful, though.
On the Joy front: she is so much better today! By evening time especially. And now, she’s all pressed up against Bear, snoozing like a little snoozer. We’re trying a “recovery suit” for her, which is kinda like a pair of pajamas that covers her whole body in lieu of a cone so she can’t lick anything. Working so far! She’s so goddamn cute, you guys. It actually hurts.
Anywho…solid writing day today, too. Solid writing WEEK. I am locked in. Determined. Nothing gonna stop me.
Night night.
