Finally got this pretty blue color...

Finally got this pretty blue color from Model City Polish. It's called T-Virus. Hence the germy stamping. 😃

(P. S. My germs are purposefully askew, in case it isn't obvious.)


Yuck.

Yuck.  Woke up with a weird headache and slightly nauseated today.  No fun.  I'm gonna go eat something and chill on the couch.

I did have Harley out playing and I hate to put him up again, but I'm not sure I'm ready to leave him unsupervised in my room.  Sorry, little buddy.  He's really sad right now.  🙁  He's starting to really enjoy his free time even though he's still not too sure about people.  Maybe he'll come around soon.

Not too shabby for a fraidy cat with burned tootsies. 🙂

Not too shabby for a fraidy cat with burned tootsies. 🙂

This is Harley playing. A few days ago he could barely walk. Now he's getting around pretty good. 😃

His feet are starting to scab over. It looks uncomfortable, but he's taking it in stride. He's still getting ointment several times a day, plus pain meds twice a day. I'm sure that helps.

He's still a little scaredy and won't come to us at first. He still hisses initially, but once you pet him, he decides that you're ok. Noises still make him run, but maybe he'll get over that.

Isn't he so cute and funny? Gah. He just makes me feel all melty. ❤

Aww. I just got some little kitty kisses from Harley...

Aww.  I just got some little kitty kisses from Harley. AND he kneaded my hand a little bit. 😃 This is the first time I've seen him move his paws so much.

He's also starting to sharpen his claws. I guess it's time to buy him a scratchy!

I am SO tired... but then again it IS 4 am.

I am SO tired... but then again it IS 4 am.

We're on vacation this week and my schedule is so beyond screwed up.  I've been going bed around 4 and waking up around noon and LOVING IT.  LOL

I'm seriously broke so that's a little stressful, but I'll manage.  Despite that I feel pretty relaxed.  And today I was productive, so that makes me happy.  I'd planned to spend a bunch of time working on jewelry, but my house comes first and that's where my focus has been.  I cleaned / organized the kitchen, dining room, and game room.  I re-arranged in the game room a little bit with Shaun's help.  I am not 100% done with any of those rooms, but after the work I put in today all they need is a little finishing tomorrow.

My plan is to go over each room and change what I don't like.  Clean out and get rid of things we don't need.  Re-organize things in ways that make sense.  It probably makes me a huge dork to say this, but it's fun and makes me incredibly happy to do this.  There is nothing I hate in my living space more than messiness and clutter.  It affects my brain and I find it hard to function when things are out of order.  So I'm looking forward to enjoying the mental goodness that comes after all this work.  😃

Other than that there's not a lot to say besides a little kitten update.  Harley is doing well.  He acts almost like a normal kitten now.  He likes to explore and play; he's definitely coming out of his shell.  But he still hisses at us initially, and sounds (any sound - doesn't even have to be loud) freaks him out.  He seems to feel the need to run and hide when he hears anything.  Maybe he'll grow out of that.  Or maybe he'll just be fraidy.  Who knows.  But it's good to see him acting as though he's feeling better.  I'll take any improvement I can get.

And with that I am going to bed.  Goodnight, Internet.  Or good morning.  Whatever.  😛

We got Harley out to medicate him again...

We got Harley out to medicate him again and he REALLY wanted to hang out and play, so we let him for a little while. He seems to be feeling much better. I will have to post some video of him playing. 🙂

We ended up giving him back his litter box tonight, but not with regular litter. The vet suggested the recycled paper stuff, so we went and bought a bag of that for him. He got in there scratching like crazy and even rooted around a little bit like a pig (I can honestly say I've never seen a cat do THAT before), and then he made a huge poop. That wasn't the first time he's pottied, but it was the most epic. 

He seemed to have a little trouble doing his business, so I'm gonna keep an eye on that. He probably needs a good de-worming, but I think we'll save that for next week.

Anyway, I'm pleased with how well he's doing. The first few days were rough, but he's definitely on the mend. Yay! 😃

We had just ointment-ed the kitty feet...

We had just ointment-ed the kitty feet and baby boy wasn't ready to be left alone just yet. This is the most outgoing he's been. He's even got a pretty good purr going on. 😃

This makes me so happy. ❤

Of course, he seems to really like Shaun the Cat Whisperer. 😃
