My little orange kitty / More Blogger Problems

I tried to compose a new post last night only to be afflicted with the same problem as on my main blog Terlingua Dreams.  This time the fix was different and I had to change to "compose view" something I have never had to change on either blog and do not understand how it happened.

I think this little orange kitty is a little girl. She has a bunny tail like her momma and though this is not scientific by any means all the no-tail cats have turned out to be girls.

She is so small she looks like a preemie in comparison to her two other siblings.

Every day I have to clean her eyes because she wakes up with so much crust on them.  I have to do the same for Paquito but that's because he only has one eye and suffers from eye infections.  He too needs to go to see the vet so I am hoping they open the border with Mexico soon.

I am so disappointed in the girls

I can not begin to express how disappointed I am in the girls. They not only turned out to be worthless mothers but now murderers and accessories to murder.

Molly from the picture I took of the cucha had at least four kittens. Bonnie Mae, I am not sure how many she had because when I realized she had birthed her litter she had already hidden some under the kitchen and the only one I got a picture of was the little orange one.

Last week I kept on hearing a kitten crying and I was afraid it had come into the kitchen when I bring in the clothes from the clothesline or when Paquito opens the door to let himself out by throwing his fat body on it...as the door opens outwards like in Florida.

I looked everywhere including the back of the stove but then determined it was coming from under the kitchen floor. This kitten was loud so I thought it was the cute one that Molly took such good care of forgetting about the others.

This cute little kitty is no longer with us :-(

A couple of days later I heard several kittens crying and both girls pretended they did not hear anything. I even grabbed Bonnie Mae and tried to shove her under the kitchen crawl space (good thing I was wearing heavy-duty gloves) but she refused to go in.

Not feeding those kitties I would like to believe led to their death...the other possibility...I do not want to consider.  I remember many years ago when my best friend's cat had given birth in the closet and a couple of days later she killed them all. I recall her youngest daughter being a little girl and crying her eyes out.

Molly no longer has her kittens and Bonnie Mae has three for now and let's hope it stays that way.  I have been calling my veterinarian in Ciudad Acuña, Coahuila - México for days and the phone is always busy and they have deactivated their American telephone line. It was finally answered by the receptionist and she has no available appointments to sterilize cats until late May 2021.

The cat formerly known as "Mauricio" is now..."Molly"

Now that Mauricio has proven to be female I could no longer call him by that name.  So the cat formerly known as Mauricio is now and will forevermore be called...Molly!

My little girls turned out to be "lousy" mothers...

When Blanca had Nico, Paquito, and Rudy she was a good mom, in particular, the first few weeks after they were born she would only come to eat in the morning and in the afternoon then would hurry back to take care of her litter.

Katie was an equally responsible momma that took good care of Bonnie Mae and Mauricio (I have to change that name). Is it perhaps because it is the first litter for both girls?

This is how irresponsible they are...Mauricio allowed her sister to take her kittens along with the ones she had just had...except for one of them whom she kept for herself. Even only having one kitten she doesn't pay much attention to him or her. 

I had washed the linens and placed them back in the cucha and the kitten was smelling it.

He/she is so cute but why is this the only kitten Mauricio is taking care of?  She had four or at least I photographed four (see prior post).

I was able to move him/her to a temporary cucha while I put on the clean bedding.  I also played with him/her and petted it.💖

That was the last time he/she was in the cucha as Mauricio moved him/her to the water heater closet...to keep me away?

Both girls spend their time sunning themselves, going up and down the trees, and running on the roof and very little time with their brood.  Babies having babies. 😢
