Considering that we have to feed the kitty, it's like we're "spreading the wealth".

When she was up there, she knocked over FO's box of cereal, which I guess scared her, because she then ran off.

Anyway, we don't have to worry that the kitty is completely unaware of the litter box upstairs. The last thing that happened before I left for work was that it went upstairs and took a dump (I cleaned it up on my way out). I just hope she's not doing that so she can wipe her ass on the carpet upstairs after a dump without us knowing. She still has trouble centering the shit in the box.

I gave her a treat before I left, too. But she only ate it after I put it in her food dish. She wouldn't eat out of my hand (she just licked my fingers), or off the top of the cat castle. So, I don't know if we'd be able to entice her into the kitty carrier with a treat.

We've had a little bit of trouble getting her to play. I know cats tend to be lazy, but she seems young and agile, but she just likes loafing around.

My mother's Itty Bitty cat, if you throw one of her toys, will chase and "hunt" it. Our cat seems uninterested in that. FO noticed that she seems to like being lazy while playing. Like, she might play with a toy, but she'll do it by batting at it while otherwise not moving. So, I had the idea of laying down on my stomach, facing her, and just kind of moving one of her toys around in front of her. It seemed like it might have gotten her a little more interested. When I did that with the sock toy, she "captured" it and held it down with her paw. Later, I saw her rolling around and wrestling with her toys. She was bitting at the little bell on the sock. I hope she doesn't bite it off and swallow it.

I wondered if she had a deformity there (like a cat version of a club foot), but I'm not familiar with cats or what's normal for them, so I don't really know.

There is one "lobe" that is really big -- I think it's just one single thing, not two toes.

I wonder if Caramel would be a good name for her.

Man, how can a cat how NO idea how to eat out of a person's hand? I put some treats in my palm, and she licked my fingers, then kind of bit them. Then I moved the treats to the edge of my fingers, where she was licking anyway, and she licked the other fingers and bit them again.

I think the only way to feed her a treat is to put it in her food bowl.

At least when she "bit" me, it was kind of gentle and not hard enough to hurt, let alone puncture the skin, but sheesh.
