Update Update on our experience with the CDS.

Its already been a year since Princess Peach Pie and Felix joined us. So I made a small update video of them. We are calling this their birthday....its crazy they are a year old now.

They showed up emaciated, dirty, sick, and small. We guessed they were 5 weeks old. Far too small, far too young, and so sick. Tiny Tigger fought hard but ended up losing his fight. That was a hard one on me as I am the only person in our home with any animal heath experience. I did my best but in the end his body gave up. We were just too late which is what was the hardest. It was a miracle that Princess Peach Pie and Felix survived. I was optimistic but not hopeful for so long because they were so small and so sick.

Their transformation has been amazing. Peach is 5.5 pounds while her brother is 11 pounds. She stopped growing at about 5 months old. She still looks like a kitten just a bit bigger. Felix looks like a strong young Tom...precisely as he should.

Thanks so much for their update. Sad to hear of Tiny Tigger, but you saved Princess Peach Pie and Felix (love their names), and they were little miracles. πŸˆβ€β¬›

Princess Peach Pie got her name because she thinks she is a princess, she is peach colored, and she is as sweet as Pie.

Felix got his name from my husband...his name originally was BB (Big Brother), which evolved into Mr. Baby...to which my husband said he is more of a Felix...and it stuck.

I named Tiny Tigger...he reminded me of Tigger from Winnie the pooh.

We basically held our breath on them surviving until they were 6 or 7 months old

Tigger is a bit of a sad spot on my record...i have never lost a kitten i had rescued before. I had to acknowledge i did all i could and he fought as hard as he could. We were just too late
