Olympia should reach her full adult size between 1 to 1.5 years old. According to a chart I have her weight will be around 5.5 lbs. She has grown fast since her birth but will slow down soon.

I meant to take a picture of her belly...she has spots now where before it was solid pink. Like her mommy, she also has spots on her skin under the fur, but it is barely discernible right now. Her left ear stood standing for a good 3.5 weeks, but now it seems to flop over often. Like her auntie Essy, the cartilage in her ears are not thick enough to support her big ears. I'm all ears! Hilarious!

Kadie, does she have any spots on her tongue?

I never had a dog with anything but a pink tongue until Pearl and she has a black spot on her tongue. I understand many dogs do; I just never had one with a spot before so had no idea.

Ann, I never thought to look at Olympia's tongue. She's sleeping now. I'll wait to look after she wakes and has her breakfast. The last time I put my fingers in her mouth (to take away a beef bone), she had clamped her jaws together to keep her bone. My fingers came away whole, but with 2 puncture wounds on one finger...her teefies are sharp!

Only Natural Pet has Free Shipping today and this week. Usually you have to order over $79.00 for free shipping so I wait until they have these free shipping times to order a small ticket item.

I ordered the Salmon Oil I use for Lily, just squirt it on her food. She loves it, will lick it out of a spoon if I offer it to her.

We have a new shelter back up and running , by appointment 12 to 5 tomorrow ,, 5 kittens and mom and snowball will be gone
???
Any others that come my way , are definitely going to get spay or neutered
That still leaves my 14 or 15 year old , and the two,, year old cats now , Mingles and Kilo
Truthfully , that is plenty , Sad
Something like ,, I like Elephants also Lovey dubby , but I would not like standing in a herd of them Blinking or cleaning up after 15 of them , Glare

I agree, and you have done a really kind thing in taking in and looking after the kittens. Without your care, they would certainly not have survived. Angel Angel Thumbs up

Thank you all for the kind thoughts and words Angel , however those that work the shelters and donate the food to donation centers still deserve the kind words even more Angel Angel Angel
I think I am like many here , one or two pets , (maybe 3 to 5) is all One place or self can handle, at least comfortably with good care being given ,
There is really 30 to 40 cats within this town block ,, way over the top ...

Jim, I know you're going to miss the kitties terribly. Group hug You did a marvelous thing for them with the care and affection you had given them. Angel

A couple of weeks ago I mentioned about two kittens and their feral momma living behind my son's cottage. I was going to adopt them but without my knowledge hubs gave them to our neighbor. Crying I'm kind of glad though as we have Lillie cat and her 4 young-uns. Hilarious!

Ann, I took a peek into Olympia's mouth...no Spot in there. Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing

LOL, Jim -- cleaning up after a herd of elephants certainly makes cleaning out the kitty litter sound easy. I'm so glad you have found an alternative to taking care of them all yourself, and hope they will all find good homes soon!

I heard some rather disturbing things about our local shelter today and am wondering what to believe right now. If what I heard was true, and it came from more than one source, then I really do not want to donate any more $$ to the local shelter. Which makes me sad.

I AM very thankful to have a vet who doesn't charge so much as to put us into bankruptcy with 4 pets! Blinking
