Yes! And it's my first time to adopt a #kitten.
A friend already had an adult cat and it didn't like the presence of the kitten, so my friend gave me the kitten.
I worried so much deciding if I was going to accept it. At first I was excited because I really wanted to take care of an #animal. I do love them.
My first pet was a #hamster and too bad I had to leave the #Philippines to come back here to the #UAE.
Now, I have adopted a kitten - an Arabian Mau - and my fiance named him 'Boogie'.
He is so clingy, too sweet and very playful. Many owners from #Youtube say that's very normal for kittens.
Boogie is just 3 months old and has been with me for just about a month. Believe me, I feel like giving up. I didn't know it was going to be this hard. Plus, after watching a lot of videos online, blogs, tips and advice; I was surprised that behavior of dogs and cats were very different.
Like this for example. I'm sure puppies wouldn't do this...
I don't allow him to be on my laptop. But whenever he's with my mom, he gets that chance to sit on her laptop.
It's too hard to train these young hunters. And that routine?!!! I'm so not a routine person at home. Then all of a sudden I have to keep up with Boogie's demands. Breakfast, play/hunt, Lunch, play/hunt, nap time, play/hunt, nap time, play/hunt, Dinner, Grooming, Cuddle time, Sleep.
That is so crazy!!! All my extra time is now Boogie time. Don't get me wrong. I do enjoy it when I'm with him. It's more purposeful (hmmm...not sure if that was the right term to describe how I felt). But yeah, I do find those times with Boogie, precious times. Maybe because I learn from it.
Having Boogie, makes me feel more confident to be a mother when I get married and then have children.
Also, I'm getting a preview of how my mother is going to be when I have kids.
So, this is truly beneficial. I need to get prepared, otherwise, she's going to call the shots. Like what she's doing now.
Ever since Boogie came into our lives, we've been taking turns in watching out for him. But my mother is being unfair. She tells me not to allow Boogie to go onto my bed, yet she allows him to go on to hers. She screams when she sees Boogie kissing me, and tells me not to allow him. But she tries to get kisses from Boogie. Sound familiar? #Narcissist
That's not all she does. But enough about her.
Anyway, even though all that is happening, I still believe that Boogie is able to take away the stress in me and he entertains my 72 years old mother in these #covid19 times.
Though it is truly difficult, we have fallen in love with this kitten and I hope I will make it with him - through good times and the bad, since he is really my responsibility now.
For all you #cat #lovers out there, please please share me some insights, tips and advices on how to be a better cat owner.
Right now, my challenge really is his claws, and biting. I'm so terrified of them. When he's playing, all of that comes out to play too.
I love it when he's sleeping. Hehheehehe!!!
Wish he'd just sleep all the time.
Until here my friends. Hope to hear from you Cat Lovers.
See you around!
