I think Merlin did this on purpose

I realized he hadn't peed on me in a while so I brought him to the bathroom so I could use a warm water/cotton ball to see if I could 'stimulate' something out. As I'm waiting a few seconds for the water to run warm I felt warm water running down my arm.

Kittens are fun.

2. He has such an appetite!

I've pretty much given up on a scheduled feeding routine. He screams, non stop, when he's hungry so that's when I feed him. Then he drops right off to sleep.

Fortunately this new bottle/nipple makes the feedings SO much easier.

4. He's curled up over my heart, right now, sleeping soundly

This little boy made a very quick transition from a four legged mom to a two legged mom.

8. He's pooping and peeing on his own and those chompers are definitely breaking through.

I think he's a smaller than average 3 week old. That is going to make introducing the litter box a little difficult so I'm going to cut down a card board box or maybe find something like the lid to a shoe box and progressively move to something taller.

Last night he slept in the soft sided carrier instead of on my shoulder, so that was good. After his 6am feeding, Gryff came in, , gave him a sniff and then stretched out next to us, for a while. That's progress.

9. Maybe an old shallow baking pan would work.

Glass or metal. It would stand up to the liquid waste.
