A petite update

Just wanted to let anyone know who happened to be checking here periodically...

Celia is about 6 pounds now, so she's well on her way to being a real cat. We don't know how big she's going to get, but I think she's just about done growing since she's almost six months old (September 16th). Her meows, though no less frequent, are at least a bit lower-pitched now. I have almost completely stopped calling her Squeaker, which was one of her many nicknames.

Her ringworm on her face seems to be just about cleared up, but we go to the vet Tuesday to see officially. She was there last month and had to endure having her ringworm-infected whiskers being plucked out one by one, but the stuff didn't seem to be anywhere but in her hair follicles, so hopefully it hasn't sprung up anywhere else in the mean time. It would be nice to stop giving her medicine every day!

She and Patti are beginning to get along a little better, and they've been seen napping together for literally minutes at a time, which is quite exciting. Patti is still skeptical whenever Celia comes around, but I don't blame her. If I got jumped and/or swatted at by the kitten every time she came near me, I'd be skeptical too. =) Anyway, I think we will soon have two harmonious cats and will be a real family... hehehe.
