Lunie gets blue highlights

I am a bit of mischieveous and extremely curious kitty, and recently my humans decided to buy some dodgey toilet cleaner – the ones that you hang on the edge of the toilet. This one was all blue and the more you flush, the more bits of toilet cleaner comes out and starts pouring out of the container. I enjoy playing in the toilet (yes in) especially when my humans flush the toilet, so the other day, I touched my head on the cleaner and kind of got some blue high lights in my hair now. I like them, what about you?

Litter Kwitter toilet training update

For all those wondering why there has been no update about my toilet training progress with the Litter Kwitter system, it is probably because I’m stuck at the moment. How so? I am currently already on the green ring, but am refusing to poo in the toilet but rather, next to it. I am having no problems peeing into the toilet, but unless my human forces me to poo on the toilet, I prefer the corner behind the toilet, or else the shower.

Hopefully I will get over this with some help from my humans and move on to doing ALL my business in the toilet and eventually pass the LK training. Wish me luck!

Vester’s new house

So a few weeks ago, my human decided to buy something they call a “pet cage” (huh?). It is actually my new house! It is nice and big and has a lot of room for me to even stand up in if I wanted to. There are some vents along the top, but my humans covered those up with some newspaper so that I won’t get cold during the cold winter that is going on right now. They have put my favourite cushion in it and now I am enjoying naps all the time inside my awesome new home. Check it out!

Vester caught a bird – again

I caught a birdie today, a pigeon from the front yard as usual – not my first time, in fact one of many, but this time it was a little different. I managed to bring the birdie I caught into the back yard and into the pool area inside, but somehow the birdie managed to get away from me and jumped into the pool! Damn birdie escaped me… so when my humans came back, I couldn’t wait till they fished it out of the pool and gave it to me.

My humans picked it out of the pool when they got home and I got really excited as they brought it over to me, but then they took it away from me and put it into a box that I couldn’t reach. Now they have kept the birdie inside and I’m locked outside :(

Lunie hurts her leg

Today I hurt my leg somehow and now I am limping (and running) around on 3 legs. My front left paw is hurt – I must have sprained it somehow, either got it caught somewhere or didn’t land properly :( My human will have to get me checked up in the next 2 days if I don’t get any better, I hope it isn’t anything serious.

On a happier note though, I finally did a poopie in the toilet today after a week of pooping in the shower instead. Finally my humans realised that I just didn’t like pooping on the human’s toilet seat, but they finally realised and lifted that up so I am able to stand straight on the white LitterKwitter ring which is so much better! Hopefully after this realisation I will be able to advance to the green soon!!!

Lunie’s first vet visit – desexing

On Sunday, my human took Lunie and I to the vet. Somewhere I have been before, but it would be Lunie’s first time. Our human lured us with yummy milky treats then put us in tiny boxes and put us in the car. Lunie was in her box the entire trip there, but I was let out of my box (cause I’m a 5kg cat with lots of muscle!!! … and cause my box had no secured lid) so I sat at the foot of my human’s foot in the back seat.

I was there to get checked up and vaccinated and was allowed to go home immediately, but Lunie had to stay there over night as she was in for desexing the next day. She’s home today, but I must say, she looks incredibly funny!!!

Lunie's bald spot

Having the operation on the side is beneficial in the sense that the stitches are self dissolving and will not need to be removed 10 days later (which involves another trip to the vet), but I think our human should’ve done it on her belly – worth the extra visit since poor Lunie will probably now have a funny/bald spot for a few months!

Lunie and Vester visited the Croydon Park Veterinary http://www.croydonparkvet.com.au/
Call the Cat protection society http://www.catprotection.org.au/ today to find the cheapest vet for desexing in your area.

Lunie’s toilet training – LitterKwitter Amber

So the next step from the Red stage of the LitterKwitter toilet training system, is the amber stage. This is where the bowl starts to have a small hole in it where -essentially- the kitty business should be going into. Of course aim is always a problem in this case…

Photos to be uploaded soon…

Video – Amber stage (doing #1)

Supposed to get me used to having a hole in my toilet tray and make me go potty in there.. but I much prefer putting my head through it…

The downside of the Amber stage? If I miss the hole and pee in the tray instead, the less amount of crystals means the tray smells really bad and I refuse to go toilet again until it gets cleaned …. what does that mean? It means I go pee/poopie in the shower instead :D

Lunie’s toilet training – LitterKwitter Red

So my human thought that I was making a big mess doing my business in my litter box. Ok, I admit, I like to kick and scratch half the contents of my litter box out, but it’s instinct!

So they decided to buy something called a LitterKwitter training system in attempt to train me to use the human toilet. The box comes with a ring to go on top of the toilet bowl, and then 3 different pieces to put inside the ring. I am currently up to the “amber” stage, but let’s start with “red”.

The first stage – Red:

This stage is meant to get me used to jumping up onto the toilet to use the toilet. It has a full bowl of litter crystals with no hole yet.

Video warning: I’m doing a #2 :D
