NEED NEW PICS :)

LindaR 10-19-2010 08:49 AM

sit her in the box, take her front paws and do a digging motion...she'll get it faster...

Murphy 10-19-2010 11:08 AM

Beautiful baby. Glad she found a safe and loving home; my DH would be doing just what your's is :-).

Ok this morning when I found an "accident", I put it and her in the litter box and we both dug a hole and buried it. She is not getting it though. Here she is on the back of my couch. She fits in my hand and can sleep cuddled up. She is a cutie. Now she is following us around right under my feet so I have to look down everywhere I go. And she is purring for the first time. I think she has adopted us. LOL.

OMGOSH~~~THAT FACE IS PRICELESS

Oh Debbie, she is so cute! Looks like about 7 weeks old. My little Bella Boo absolutely hated the feel of the litter in the box. She would use the papers that the box was laying on but would jump out of the box when I put her in. She'd jump out, I'd put her back in. She'd jump out, I'd put her back in. Took her 3 days to figure out I was going to win, lol. Good hint about teaching her to 'dig' also. It's amazing how they adapt. My 4 little fosters are just waking up after getting spayed today and go up for adoption on Friday. I'll miss them so much. Maybe some will come up on my deck?

This is like potty training my kids again. I was in the living room and she woke up adn was headed towards the back of the room and I grabbed her and took her to the litter box and made her sit there. Then she must of got hte hint, she did her duty. Yeah......Now we will see what happens. Patience is not one of my better virtues but I am trying LOL

redkimba 10-19-2010 01:26 PM

Sometimes litter training takes a while. At least you caught her right before the act so you can show her & make her go where she's supposed to go.

dreamer2009 10-19-2010 02:45 PM

YEAH !! for you DEBBIE :)
way to go

Quilter7x 10-21-2010 10:25 AM

She is so precious! Sounds like she's on the right track of learning what her litter box is for. I hope you are able to keep her. :)

craftybear 10-21-2010 10:37 AM

how cute, have you named the kitty yet?

NCquilter 10-21-2010 10:50 AM

Aww, she is adorable

lainb1962 10-21-2010 11:26 AM

She is precious!!!

lauriejo 10-21-2010 11:28 AM

Debbie we need an update on the kitty!!!

sunkistmi 10-21-2010 11:48 AM

Yes, we are waiting here with baited kitty breath. Licorce and Jillybean want to know if they have a namesake or if you thought one of the other wonderful names fit her better. Sometimes it takes a few days to get to know their personality and what will 'fit' them perfectly. Maybe Debbie is having so much playing with the new baby that she hasn't had time to get on the computer....

debbieumphress 10-21-2010 12:18 PM

Kitty is Lucy Bella Sweetness. I call her that too. Se already seems to know her name. Well, the true test. Yesterday Dh and I went to Denton to Cabella's to buy him a new rifle and after that we decided since we were already half way to Oklahoma to go to Winstar. So we did and hours later we walked out and it was dark, he can't see at night and I had a headache from the lights on the slot machines so we drove next door and they comped us a free room so we stayed overnight. Forgot about kitty since not used to house pets. Well, we got home and she was in her recliner and looking to see who came in and ran over to us and cuddled at our feet. So I checked her food, still had plenty and water, then noticed the litter box was full. Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. It worked. So cleaned it really quick and she still goes there. Now she is laying by my feet in the office with me. So cute. No new pictures as she hasn't changed a bit. LOL. When she gets up here she trys to walk ove the keyboard and all, maybe trying to type you a message. LOL
I love the names Licorce and Jelly bean, Sunkistme. So cute. I used to name my animals like candy, I had a hershey, twixie, musketeer, etc.

lauriejo 10-21-2010 01:05 PM

Naughty mommy forgetting about poor baby at home LOL. That's the great thing about kitties, they have an indoor potty. So glad she learned to use it.

Shemjo 10-21-2010 01:15 PM

So glad you enjoyed your time out and kitty welcomed you home in such a nce way!

sunkistmi 10-21-2010 02:37 PM

You go new mommy! Good job. I knew she would learn. Love her new name. I'm sure she will complete your family perfectly and you won't remember what it was like without her. They worm their way into the heart in a big way. Take care.

dreamer2009 10-21-2010 03:02 PM

well "miss lu-bells" sure learned who's the boss...lol

BRenea 10-21-2010 07:26 PM

She looks so sweet! Two years ago we found three abandoned kittens in our barn. Only two had their eyes open, all were very thin and hungry...so naturally the big softie (me) took them in! Now my three girls are healthy and beautiful! They were a blessing since we had lost our beloved tuxedo cat just four months before.

I am loving having her here and now the playing has started. So she has toys now. Getting a scratching post soon. She is so funny now. She took a shower with DH today and I dried her with a towel. She was so wet. LOL. She liked it though. Now she is so soft and fluffy. Here is a picture of her playing tonight. Not sure she likes the camera. LOL.
We had friends over to play cards tonight and she climbed on the empty chair and slept . Seems like she likes to stay close.

Bright light!!!!!!!

Update. Here is a picture of Lucy Bella Sweetness and Annabelle. Both are good friends and are always together. They were napping on DH's lap. Doubled in size already and so healthy. I thought only humans spooned to sleep. LOL Aren't they getting so precious. Both are well behaved and are already so spoiled.

dutchie 12-10-2010 09:38 PM

Ummm, Debbie?? The picture??

bjnicholson 12-10-2010 09:40 PM

Oooh, looking for the picture. Now I can't go to bed till I see it! Deb, was just thinking about you and wondering how your baby was doing. So happy to get the update.

Until they all have homes,
Wendy

dutchie 12-10-2010 09:54 PM

What SWEET faces! No wonder you're proud.

sunkistmi 12-10-2010 09:54 PM

Very, very, (one more) very cute. All of them, including your lovely GD.

debbieumphress 12-10-2010 09:54 PM

These two babies are definitely staying here. Already have their own personalities. And they know what a spray bottle is. LOL. If they get on table or somewhere they shouldn't be all I have to do is pick it up and they run for the hills. LOL.

sunkistmi 12-10-2010 10:03 PM

What a good mommy you are. Off to bed now. Christmas shopping starting early AM, or so DH has decreed. He's been sleeping on the couch while I've been on the laptop. So much for spending 'time together', lol. Have a great weekend everyone.

dyer804 12-10-2010 10:46 PM

Again, cute kitties! I think your GD looks a lot like you. Cute girl!

deltadawn 12-11-2010 12:09 AM
