No Longer the Road Kitty

The interesting thing about Sable's growing up is its impact on me. For the first 3 weeks, Sable was my Road Kitty...everywhere I went, he was right with me. Since he couldn't walk very well or for very long, I carried him a lot. Now, he's Mr. Independent. No carrying him around...at least not for long. His transition from a totally dependent little rug rat to Mr. Independent really saddened me.

Reality hit when I took him to NJ with me to attend a funeral. At that time, Sable had not been in his carrier for a week, except to sleep. The ride up was fine but during the return trip, he was quite vocal. I guess it didn't help that he did a doodle in his carrier that I couldn't completely remove LOL It was at that time that I realized that he would not be a Road Kitty anymore.

We're adjusting to the changes, although I think he's handling it waaayyyy better than I am LOL

It's Been a While

It's been a minute since I've last posted about Sable. Boy, has he grown into such an active and funny kitten. Over the past 3 weeks, he has been running and jumping, stalking, and using my ankles and hands as a scratching and biting post. LOL

I'm bummed because I lost my media card that contained so many pics of him, including his first wet food meal. I've got some recent flicks of him, showing just how much he has grown.

He's quite the character! Everyday brings about something different. The other day, he discovered his tail. Imagine waking up to a kitten running in circles on the bed. Yesterday I purchased stuffed toys meant for dogs so that he can scratch, bite and tumble with it. Well he has taken to those toys like crazy! One toy is about his size...he picks it up with his mouth and carries it around. Such a sight to see!
