huffle got tagged to do a shopping meme and made her mommy do it. even though her mommy did not tag my mommy, i still asked her to do it while she was sitting at the hospital today with the daniel kitten. so mommy, what have you never bought?
well sweetheart...
1.) i have never bought dog food.
2.) i have never bought cigarettes.
3.) i have never bought brussel sprouts. (my family calls them "gag bags".)
4.) i have never bought birkenstocks (though i want a pair).
5.) i have never bought baby formula though that will change shortly.
6.) i have never bought a food processor.
7.) i have never bought chard.
8.) i have never bought one of those carpeted cat towers. don't look at me like that! you and your siblings have lots of ledges and windows.
thank you mommy!

update on life other than the daniel kitten
mommy has been gone a lot so i have not been able to use her laptop to update this blog. she is back to work again so she can save some of her mommy leave for when the daniel kitten comes home. she is also in great falls on the days when she is not working.
last night, my brother cullen and i had to snuggle mommy because she got home from two days in great falls and was not feeling well. her ickiness turned into a migraine and so she stayed home from work today to sleep and try to get some rest.
daddy is gone to great falls right now and is also having a hard day because a teenager in the community was shot and killed last night. the phone started ringing at 2 a.m. (waking us all up) with calls from other pastors in the community trying to set up grief counseling for the teenagers at the high school in town. mommy is very sad because the mother of the teenager was one of the nurses taking care of her the night the daniel kitten was born.
on a good note, mommy and i received a package on tuesday. it was a kitten present of bathtime stuff for the daniel kitten from huffle and her mommy. i will have to have mommy help me write a thank-you note and i promise to use my best paw-manship.
other than that, i have been watching the birds and bunnies playing outside. it is spring here and it seems like all of our wild neighbors are out playing.

spring is here!
mommy has been taking the laptop with her to great falls so i have not been able to get on to blog.
the daniel kitten is doing well and gaining weight. he is one month old now and growing big. the only problem is that he tends to cough up his food when mommy and daddy are cuddling him. he managed to cough some up and make it go down mommy's shirt last sunday. he got away with it because he is cute. i don't think mommy would tolerate it from me or from my siblings.
when mommy comes home, my brother cullen and i have snuggle time with her. she loves it though she gets a little cross when i jump onto her tummy scar or when i put my claws into her chest.
spring is here and the snow is (hopefully) gone. there are lots of birds and bunnies outside for me to watch. i like being a window cat when it is sunny. mommy likes it because she says it warms me up nicely.

snow is icky
mommy and daddy are finally back. daddy was in alaska and mommy was in great falls with the daniel kitten. they were supposed to come home yesterday but they got too much snow and the road got closed. i was not a happy panther!
mommy told me that the daniel kitten is breathing on his own now and she got to hold him for the first time this weekend. he is smaller than me still but she said that won't be for long. he is having problems eating and pooping so they are having to give him medicine for his tummy.
mommy got to help give him a bath and she said that he did not like it. i can understand that. i did not like baths when i was a kitten.

time with mommy
mommy and daddy have been down in great falls every day with the daniel kitten. mommy calls about him when she gets up in the morning and before she goes to bed. she says that he is doing well and that he will be able to come home in 8 weeks.
mommy still has a sore tummy from where they had to take daniel out. i have to be careful on her lap because she winces if my back paws end up on her incision site. she does not have fur so she does not have to worry about it growing back. the fur has never grown back over the spot on me where they made sure i was not going to have any kittens.
i am happy to have her home again. i missed her when she was at the hospital with daniel.

new little tomkitten
mommy got home on saturday night. daddy had tried to explain to me why i was suddenly left with my babysitters but i'm not sure i understand. mommy had her tomkitten but they are making her keep it at the hospital until it is much bigger. are they afraid that my sister freya will eat it?
mommy has been spending her home time sleeping on the couch. i have helped her as much as i can. my brother cullen is also helping her. she and daddy are having to spend part of their day down in the big city so they can see the daniel tomkitten so she is tired when she comes home.
mommy also wanted me to share the link to his caringbridge site:

tomkitten comes early
This is Jen, Edda's mommy. Edda hasn't been able to blog since Sunday because I got really sick and they had to take me down to the special hospital and take the tomkitten out. The tomkitten's name is Daniel James and he was born on Tuesday morning (April 7th) at 3:46 a.m. MDT. He's in the NICU for the forseeable future and I'm in the hospital for at least another few days. I miss Edda and her siblings terribly and wish I could have them down here with me. Thankfully, Edda has her favorite babysitter and her daddy will be home tonight.
Thank you for all the purring done on my behalf. Please continue to keep Daniel and I in your purrs and prayers and thoughts.
