All you need is love...

That is all Billy needs to lead a happy life. He is the loviest, sweetest kitten in the world, well aside from my Joey.
I have a theory about Billy loving Korey more. It is easier for Billy to lay on Korey's flat chest...and not my chest. He apparently does NOT like laying on a womans chest...I am thinking the boobs get in the way?? haha! TMI sorry.
Right now, Billy is laying on Korey's chest, licking his face....his cheeks, nose etc. If Korey talks, Billy is right there, trying to sniff at his mouth. Billy is just rolling around on his chest, sniffing his face and nuzzling up to him. I must admit, I am a little jealous. I am home all day caring for him and loving him. At least Joey loves me more I guess :) As long as Billy knows he is loved, I am fine with him loving Korey more.
Last night Billy slept in our bed with us. We haven't let him yet, as we don't have a litterbox in our room, and Billy can't quite get the stairs yet. We have tried a little but he doesn't like it. He lOVED sleeping in bed. He curled up with us for a goof 5 hours before he woke us up with his little cries to get taken to the litter box. He is SO good about that....he has not yet had an accident.

I feel like I say a million times a day, that we love Billy so much. Truthfully, we were nervous when we got him. We were not sure that we were ready for a blind kitten, but we knew we had to try for his sake. In the 3 weeks that we have had him, he has proved a million times over, that blind cats are amazing. I feel bad when people say that we are good people/doing a great thing by having a blind kitten....bc all we did is give him a home. And love/attention. The rest is all him. He is the one who can find his litterbox, his food, who plays with his toys, and cuddles up with us on the couch. He is the one who cries when we wants held/picked up, and the one who hears us first thing in the morning and runs to find us so we can pick him up and nuzzle him against us. There is nothing like walking downstairs to have your blind kitten run up to you each morning and cry because he missed you all night and wants attention. The little thing cant even see, but he knows just where we are and just what to do to get attention. He can't see our faces but knows by our smells and voices who we are. We were worried he would have trouble adjusting after spending 11 weeks in one home and getting suddenly moved...but you would think we had had him since he was born with how much he loves us, our other cats, and being here...and how well he knows us and the house and can get around!
