Peaches the Wonder Kitten

10/12/2026

Hi friends, I wanted to give you an update on our feral cat, Tabitha. She was the mommy cat mom caught last year. She had 3 baby kittens and we ended up keeping 2 of the kittens (unfortunately because they are awful) and the other kitten was adopted by my human brother.

Tabitha was very feral, and mom was going to release her back outside after she was spayed but she got loose in the house and everyone was too scared of her to actually catch her to put her out. Mom has been trying to make friends with her but Tabitha kept attacking mom

Well a miracle has happened. Tabitha is no longer h*micidal. Mom has been giving her Churu treats for a year, which she would eat while mom was holding it but would hiss the whole time, but last month mom started brushing her while she was eating her treat. At first she attacked but then she realized she loved being brushed. Then the day came when she rolled over and showed Mom her belly. Of course when mom touched her belly she attacked, but her attacks were less violent. Mostly just hissing and a light swat. Yesterday was the big breakthrough. Mom was able to pet her head. Tabitha loves head scratches and she even started to purr.

She can only handle 2-3 minutes at a time of brushing and head scratches but she finally understands that she’s safe and loved.

Mom and her friend had a big adventure this week. It started when mom’s friend went to dinner at a restaurant by our house and saw a pregnant cat standing out in the rain. She called Mom and said “we have to save her” They called all the shelters and rescues but everybody was full, but my auntie Diana, the one who saved me from the kill shelter, found a very kind lady that agreed to take her

Mom and her friend were able to trap the mommy cat and had to drive two hours through the storm to get to the kind lady’s house. The lady examined the mommy cat and immediately realized that the kittens had already been born.

Mom and her friend had to rush back in the storm to the parking lot and search for the kittens They looked through all the shrubs and grass and all the surrounding businesses, but could not find the kittens. It was really dark and rainy. They finally decided to go home and come back in the morning. There was a nearby car dealership, so the manager let them go in the back and search. No luck finding the kitties. They were ready to go back and get the mommy cat. Return her to the parking lot to see if she could find her kittens.

But then some guy that had been watching them, came up and said that the last time the mommy cat had kittens, she hid them in the bushes by the front door of the car dealership. And sure enough there were 7 beautiful little kitties in the bushes.

Mom and her friend then drove the kittens all the way back to the kind lady’s house. Mommy got spayed, then was reunited with her kittens. The kitties appear to be about five weeks old. They are very healthy and sweet and they already started eating wet food. The kind lady is going to get the kitties spayed/neutered and vaccinated when they are old enough and will find them all homes. Mommy cat is very sweet so ahe will find her a home instead of releasing her back where we found her

Mom said it was a very good day.

Hi friends. I’m sorry we haven’t posted in a while, but Mom has been really busy and keeps forgetting to take pictures of me. This morning while she was feeding me breakfast she finally remembered. And she decided now is a good time for me to tell you about my shameful secret.

I love to eat, especially when she gives me Fancy Feast. She usually feeds me Smalls which is healthier. Smalls is really good, but fancy feast is my favorite. So this is my secret: Ever since I was a baby kitty, I’ve loved my food. I get so happy when she puts my plate down that I like to eat it as fast as I can. Then I puke it back up. So every day of my life, mom has to sit with me when I eat my wet food. I get wet food three times a day. Mom has to sit there and tell me to slow down and then periodically lift my plate so that I’m forced to take a break.

As you can imagine, mom sometimes gets distracted, and as soon as I realize she’s not paying attention, I eat as fast as I can. Then I puke up my food. Mom spreads my food out on my plate really thin so that it’s harder for me to eat fast. And she pays pretty good attention. But at least once a week I still manage to eat fast enough that I puked it up.

And of course, when I puke I make sure it’s on mom’s bed or on her shoes.

Update on my sister Tabitha. She's still terrible. She's no longer afraid of humans, she just doesn't like humans to touch her.

We finally have our new hurricane Impact Windows. It was a very horrible experience. They started in my bedroom first. Before the stranger danger men got here, Mom locked me in the guest bedroom. She made the mistake of opening the door to give me some water and I bolted. I ran back into my bedroom under the bed and climbed up inside the boxspring, and Mom couldn’t get me out. I was stuck there for hours while the men took out my windows and made all kinds of noise.

The next day, they did the windows in the front of the house then the sliders in the back. About 1000 flies got in when they had the windows taken out. But the flies were the best part. I had the time of my life trying to catch them. So happy that my house is quiet and peaceful again.

Enjoying a last few seconds of joy before the stranger danger men get here to destroy our house. Mom said I’m going to be happier with the new windows because it will be easier for me to watch the birdies. But I like my house the way it is. Mom says the new windows will protect us from hurricanes. I think Mom lies.

Last week my stranger danger brother painted my bedroom. I’m not afraid of my stranger danger brother I just don’t like him very much. He moved all the furniture in my room and it made me very unhappy.

Update on the Scott. The homeless guy with the two dogs. So many kind people have donated. We have him in a hotel temporarily to get out of the heat. We are working with several homeless organizations to try and get him a permit home. But for now, the dogs are cool and comfortable and able to relax.

A couple days ago my mom met Scott. He is homeless and is trying to care for his 2 dogs, Wolfie and Sophia, while living outside in this heat. He’s been hanging out by the Publix on sunrise Boulevard and flamingo Road in Plantation FL. He stands by the entrance doors because every time they open he gets a blast of air-conditioning. The dogs seem well cared for. He’s doing the best he can but he needs help. He’s not able to work because that would mean leaving his dogs on the street while he was working.

We are trying to find a way to help him. Any advice would be helpful. We are in South Florida. Are there any organizations that help homeless people with pets? Do any of our South Florida friends know of anyone who could rent him a room? He is autistic so gets a small disability check. Surrendering his dogs to a shelter is not an option for him Wolfie is older and Sophia is scared and shy. They would not make it out alive.

He’s giving the dogs lots of water but we are going though a horrible heatwave. We were able to get him a hotel room for a few days thanks to some donations, but we are hoping to get him a more permanent solution.

There are so many homeless people on the streets with pets. We wish we could help them all. When Mom first talked to Scott, his dog Wolfie, walked up to her and leaned against her leg and stared up at her with his sad eyes. She knew she had to do what she could to help. We started a Gofundme for him Please donate or share if you are able. Link in comments. Thank you to all of you

Hi friends. We have a dilemma and need your advice. We are getting new windows for our house next week and Mom wants to get all new blinds for our windows. Right now every window has vertical blinds. They were original from the builder when our house was built in 1999 and very beige and ugly. The verticals are pretty much Cat proof but we are looking for something nicer and more modern We need to get cat friendly blinds. I’m perfect and never break things but the kittens are always on the windowsills and causing havoc.

We are curious as to what kind of blinds all of you have. And have you found any that are cat proof? Please give us some ideas. Mom is very bad with decorating and has no sense of style. I’m too precious to live in an ugly house. Please help my mom with ideas so I can live in a pretty house
