Meet our newest baby….. Archie. We have had Archie since the end of May and he has settled in with Gizmo so well. At first they weren’t quite sure about each other but now they are inseparable!

Thought I would share a few up to date pictures of Gizmo as he seems to have really grown recently. Can’t believe we have had him since May now!
So we have had our kitten since the end of May. When he first arrived he was tiny and scared and just liked to hide in his bed. He has really come out of his shell now and he runs like a crazy cat all around the house like he owns the place!
He likes to loiter by the bath, even though he has fallen in a couple of times!
He likes to help me put the duvet in the cover.
Then he sits on the bed and rolls around *thank you mummy for making the bed for me*
He also likes to pretend he is a human waiting for food at our breakfast bar!
I really don’t remember what it was like to not have him now. He is the most adorable little kitty ever and I love nothing more than when he comes over and sits on my lap for a cuddle!
When getting a kitten is SO important to
make sure you train it well from a young age so it gets into a routine of where
to go to toilet, where its food is, if it is allowed in certain rooms
etc.
Litter training especially can be hard as
you don’t want poop all over the house!
Whiskas have released a series of videos
called “Kitten Kollege” which are designed to give you a bit more
help! They are so funny to watch and the kittens are so cute!
I love this series and have been watching
all of the episodes to help me with my kitten and I have learnt a few new tips!
It is so important you play with your new
kitten as at this age they need to be interacted with you and any other pets
you may have! My kitten loves my two guinea pigs, as he has grown up with them
and I introduced them after a few days of him living with us he sees them as
brothers and not food 🙂
Gizmo has been settling in well, we have had him for two months now and he loves nothing more than falling asleep in the evening on the sofa! How is this even comfortable?!
I love treating my pets to different products. www.petshop.co.uk is a great website for all of your pets needs! It is great that they have such a wide selection as often when you go to a pet store, things are limited. I much rather prefer to order online now!
My guinea pigs have been enjoying the hay with chamomile herbage. If I am honest, I have only ever fed them regular timothy hay before and never realised you could get different types! This particular hay is for dental health which is very important for small animals as you don’t brush their teeth or anything they rely on tooth friendly toys and food!
For my kitty, he tried the scottish salmon dry food. Until now he had only ever had chicken based food as I found the fish food often smelt really bad but this one was fine 🙂 He really enjoyed this and it made a nice change. The fact that Canagan food is natural is a bonus!
Every kitty loves a treat once in a while and Gizmo loved the dreamies chicken treats. hey are crunchy with a soft centre and the crunchy treats are important for cats as they are slightly abrasive on their teeth so they help with dental care. You get 30 servings in the bag too which is great value. I always give my kitty a treat when he has been good or as a small snack between meals 🙂
Going to be placing an order online soon to stock up!
I came across a brand called Rosewood pet products and decided to try some of their things for my kitty and my guinea pigs.
As you can see above, whilst trying to take pictures my kitten wouldn’t the toys alone!
The twitchy teaser is a mouse like toy on the end of a stick which is perfect to dangle in front of Gizmo and make him jump for. It also has a bell attached and he just loves playing with it. I could spent hours playing with his toys with him 🙂
There is also the head and tail duo that looks like a small animal. He loves playing with this on the floor and won’t stop chewing it!
The rattan balls are so fun to play with, I kick them across the room and Gizmo loves playing football with them haha.
My guinea pigs loved this food! They ate their dinner a lot quicker than usual and this is a lot healthier than the usual guinea pig pellets they eat!
I also am trying the cornflower and daisy sticks, carrot and conefower roller and the hay n treat swing over the next few weeks (don’t want to try them all at once or I will end up with 2 obese piggies!)
Starting off with the carrot and conefower roller, as you can see Sandy is loving it!
Nothing makes me happier than having 3 happy pets 🙂
