Nymeria at 4 months old

Here she is at 4 months old. She's eating alot! She is recovering from ringworm fantastically! To see her no longer scratching every second is wonderful. Recovering from ringworm is such a long process and just tedious. I have found out that patience is key when dealing with sick pets. The fur has started to grow. Now she looks more like a British Shorthair - dense fur and stocky body. 

I took her to see the vet this morning coz I saw a few ringworm spots on her body. New spots! Noooooooo! I believe that is because I did not give her any meds for past 2 weeks. And really, I am not happy recalling getting ringworm from her last time. I have scars along my right hand now (stupid things people do for love huh).

Dr. Sharon gave her a jab for that and prescribed some meds for her endless flu. Hopefully she'll recover soonish. I'm tired of her sneezing on my face.... 

She likes to be near me when I'm working on
my laptop
Priceless facial expression. Hahaha!

Nymeria

Imakatz Emerald Nymeria of Montel at 2 months
old exploring her new home
I have Nymeria with me for almost a month now. I've always wanted a (male!) British Shorthair as a pet but my place is not so suitable for a male cat for the time being so I just got Nymeria instead. She's such a joy and playful kitten.  She is 3 month old kitten now. I would tell you the color but we're actually not sure of the her color yet. She's got brown (OR cinnamon), red and white. She's a tortie, yes, but what kind of tortie we have yet to find out. We're going to wait a little bit longer until she's bigger when color pops out.

Originally I wanted a blue bi-color after seeing one back in 2010. I almost got a lilac bi-color last year (twice!) but fate has its own way of doing things. I got Nymeria right after I submitted my master's thesis. Adopting a kitten can take a toll on you if you're not ready. So the timing was perfect for me. And she's a beautiful kitten, going to be a healthy graceful beautiful cat.
