Roadie or Kirby?

I have an obsessive personality...sometimes it is scary and my daughter has it even worse than I do. My mind turns on about one thing like this kitten. That might sound ok but then my mind will not turn off and that is all I can think of until it plays itself out. This past week I have worried about which vet, which food, which name , which and many what ifs? I had cats before- really! OMG What will happen when I become a grandmother.This is not a bad obsession really.The kitten brings great joy and even all the shopping .( new carrier, new litter box, new toys ,etc.) When I was working it would be negative things from the classroom which would cause major stress .I could not fall asleep or take a shower without it all racing in my mind.Now- I can take a nap whenever..



Knitting - I have been sort of in a funk. I made 2 baby bibs form Mason Dixon this week but did do some spinning now the Lendrum is back out by the TV.



big weekend coming up here....

Kitty Needs a name

Help-

I need a name for this little kitty. Nothing seems to fit for a small timid little, black kitty.

kitty trapped

We trapped the kitten and he is now in my bathroom downstairs in a big dog crate. He is very timid but I did manage to hold him twice today and he purred as I rubbed his ears and belly. He will stay in the crate for a few days and then I will let him stay in the bathroom for a few more days. After he is calmer I will let him into the downstairs basement. The Boy wants him to be a garage cat. I am going for a downstairs /basement cat until he proves he is a good kitty/ then whole house kitty. Oh yeah - I plan to keep him only if the vet says he is healthy.So far I see no fleas or mites. I worry the other stuff cats can have so I am wearing gloves and keeping him away from other pets until he sees a vet this week or next.

Weekend news/ trapping critters

Not much knitting done this week.I am almost done with my circular needles sock and have been searching patterns to knit something for a baby boy. I was debating on doing the Baby Kimono in the Mason Dixon book or maybe the one made for the twins last month from Minnie Knits.......big decisions..

I finally unpacked the Lendrum today. I really want to get a wheel that is easier to travel with like this maybe?

chipmunk caught total count now 14!

My husband is on a mission to capture all the chipmunks in our yard.Although they are fun to watch; they have been tearing up our sidewalks and yard . 14 of the cuties have been relocated !





Next we are going to try to catch this little kitten. It is right on the road next to our driveway. I noticed it yesterday and have been feeding it but scoots in the hole of the pipe when we go near. It looks very young. Someone else has been feeding it as dishes were there. Now I know why people were in front of our house this last week.The Animal Shelter let us borrow a bigger trap to catch it.My husband is going to wait till tomorrow am because I have fed it twice already today..Little kitty loves tuna! If we catch it - I am thinking about keeping it if a vet says it is healthy. What a worry about the cars and rain tonight!
