Lea is using her new scratching post.Is less scared of me I can tell because I just saw her looking at me from the corner  of my desk.I'm just going to leave her food out during the day and when I get back home give her some more and frequently check on the bowl to see if empty then I can just put some more in.Also I know you guys want pics but it won't let me send them from my gallery if anyone can explain how to I can post the 2-3 pictures if lea PS (I'm really bad technology sorry also my profil pic is a picture of Lea)

That I do not know, because I don't take pictures with a phone, I use a camera.  How did you get the picture in your avatar onto the computer?  Wouldn't it be the same method?

I thought all kids these days were high tech savvy. Another myth busted!  funny2 funny2 funny2

What a precious baby girl!  I hope she made some progress with you over the weekend but don't worry if not.  She will.  Just go at her own pace.

She is probably saying... "The dude speaks cat.  Cool!"

I gave her a full can this morning she's eaten it by halfway is Lea eating too little for a kitten?Usually  by the morning she will be done with the can.so she's still eating 1 can a day.

You give her a whole can in the morning and she has it gone by the time you get home from school?

Give her another for the evening/overnight. :)

Or are you saying you give her one whole can and it takes her 24 hours to eat it?

Are these the 5.5 ounce cans?

A kitten should be eating 10 to 12 oz of food a day.  I know it seems like a LOT, but it is what they need. 

If I remember correctly, Friskies comes in 5 oz cans.  If so, she needs TWO of those cans daily.
