The other four kittens are alive and well. The mom has them in our old barn. I found them all hanging out today. They're surprisingly okay with people. One walked right up to me.

What in the fug am I gonna do with these things? I don't want them producing dozens of wild stray cats. I'm not gonna kill them. So what do I do?

I think the other kittens likely perished. I've seen the mother several times over recent weeks but no signs of the kittens. We have a LOT of coyotes around. We have a LOT of hawks around. We have a LOT of owls around. It's a pretty rough go of it around here as a small kitten. I think my little bugger won the lottery getting abandoned as a newborn.

So sad about the other kittens.  Many props to you for rescuing the lucky little kitty.

Luxury high-rise kitty condo.  That's awesome.  She will have sooo much fun with that.

And....kitty is growing so fast.

How are the dogs doing with her? That last pic is so cute.

Honestly, the dogs are great. Zero aggression and they've really calmed down and are careful around it. Koa (the Rottie) is really good and honestly he was the one I was worried about. He has a helluva prey drive and he's just plain mean as hell to anything not family. Strangers, strange dogs, any living creature unfamiliar... they all need to die. We found out my wife was pregnant literally days after getting him at 8 weeks old. We were clueless what we were getting ourselves into with pregnancy and a baby, especially with all family across the country. Long story short, Koa missed out on a lot of socialization during the most critical period of his development. But he's great with babies. Be it baby humans, puppies, kittens (didn't know until this), whatever. Maybe it's from basically being raised with a baby. I don't know. He was great with Luna (the pittie) when we got her at 8 weeks old and he's been great with the kitty. But he is NOT good with strangers or strange adult dogs. Those need to die in his mind. Luna is really good with it but she gets excited wanting to play and I get nervous and separate them. I'm confident she won't hurt it out of aggression, it's the possibility of accidentally stepping on it that concerns me

Sounds like Koa is very protective but knows who her family is....now including the kitty.  Is is great they are good with her.  So cute when big dogs and kittens are friends.

      Off Season Thread

      By MillionDollarCam · Posted

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
