update on Levi, the kitten who ate the latex teat
Levi finally stuck. The name, that is. I thought I would give y'all
an update on him since you really helped me through a very stressful time waiting for him to pass that thing. Levi, who was hand raised (until he ate the nipple) also had an eye infection and a URI when we first got him. They cleared up on antibiotics, but came right back so he is now on a longer course to really wipe it out. He still has some minor symptoms, but he is growing and his energy levels are through the roof so I finally feel confident that he will not succumb to what takes so many of these hand raised babies. He's AMAZING in every way. I'm completely in love, but he really is! He's huge now for a kitten his age (~ 8 weeks old). My mother just got a 3 month old kitten and Levi is significantly bigger than her. He's long and lean. His paws are HUGE, too. He's not afraid of anything, loves the dog, the other cat, the kids, me, company, everything. He even went after the vacuum cleaner! There is nowhere my other cat can go at this point to get away from the little devil, but Rudy is very tolerant of his new brother who constantly attacks him. Rudy tries to pin him down to wash him and Levi fights like crazy. It's a riot to watch them together. I even caught Levi licking Rudy this morning. They already have a great bond. My dog loves him, too, and they play kind of rough, but Levi can't seem to get enough. We're about to adopt another dog so it should be constant chaos around here soon (as if it isn't already). Levi still sucks our lips when he is sleepy, but is learning that when I detach him that's enough. He LOVES to snuggle and purrs constantly when he's sitting still (which isn't often the past few days!). He's still not grasping the concept that attacking my face at 3 in the morning isn't a good thing, hehe, but we're working on "no." He's a gem, he really is. Here's the only photo I have uploaded, more soon. This one just cracks me up http://fototime.com/008498DB75FC3C8/orig.jpg |

This one just cracks me up http://fototime.com/008498DB75FC3C8/orig.jpg FWIW, my young cat, Snickers, was playing with one of those plastic rings that lock the cap on a milk jug. He was slapping it all over the place, having a great time. Before I knew it, he chewed it to pieces and swallowed all of it. Next day I didn't notice anything in his stools, but after scooping out the litter, I put it in the toilet and let it sit for a while to become soft. I then dumped water in to stir up the matter and up came the plastic pieces. Point here is, it could have come out and you never saw it because it is encased in poop : ) As I read in one cat care book once, they exaggerated, "kittens can eat enough foreign matter to stock a small store".
