Alpha Smudgy

Smudgy is getting so big! We just had her 2nd vet appointment and she weighed 4 pounds.  She did pretty well, for the most part, at the vet.  They really need to invent much smaller thermometers.  These poor little kittens are just traumatized by those huge thermometers.  Their poor little bums.
She has also become the Alpha in the house.  The dogs give way to her just about everywhere.  Murphy won't even eat his food if Smudgy is walking around it (which she loves to do).

"Thank you fer dis bed mum. I r soooo cumfy!"

"Um, scuze me.  I, um, thinks you are in de wrong bed."

"DAD!! Da tiny claws and teeths is in mah bed!"

"But, she ams so cute!"

"That's ok, I wanted to sleep on the floor anyways."

So yeah, Smudgy runs the house at this point.  She really thinks she's a tiny St. Bernard and has no fear whatsoever.  She is now escaping the house a few times a week and she does not hesitate at all when she runs out.  She's ready to explore the world...but still has a little time before we can let her. 
Smudgy is still nursing!!!  It's not as bad as it used to be and she's actually able to sleep with us now.  But, it still happens and we have no idea why.  The vet said they usually grow out of it and their slightly surprised she hasn't yet.  We'll take any ideas to get her to stop.
She is also in full kitten mode.  Full kitten mode with no fear.  She'll be sleeping sometimes and suddenly jump up and go batshit crazy attaching anyone and everything in sight.  We call this vicious kitteh mode. We really think she is part ferret. 
On a rare occasion, she'll become snuggle kitten and it's the best!  (Poor Max has allergies, so please excuse his puffy eyes.)

"I still fit on your shoulder! See?"

She LOVES laundry and likes to "help" whenever we're doing it....

"I help!"

That's it for today! We'll get some more up soon.  Enjoy!
