Mulder Preening an orphan kitten

My friend Pam and I rescued this little kitten from the road when were on the way to the Jack Johnson concert. It's about five weeks old and covered with fleas. Too young to tell if it's a male or a female. Too young to use flea control. But who needs it? When I sat Mulder on the couch next to this little kitten he immediately started preening him, picking off fleas, snapping them in half and going back for more. He even gently removes the boogers in the corners of the little kitty's eyes sometimes. It's just as sweet as it can be.

OMG did you name your bird after Fox Mulder from the X Files???!!!!!!!!! =D

[Caroleeena]

@gottalovemulder1 Yes. I miss that show so much! I wish they'd come out with another movie. One based on one of the myths or legends instead of aliens. Those plotlines were always my favorite.

The parrot is missing a lot of belly feathers. Their leaving him alone too much. Pulling feathers is a stress/anxiety behavior.

@golthimere I am with him all the time. When I adopted him, he didn't have any feathers from the head down. He actually has a lot more feathers now than he has had since I adopted. him.

what did ur friends end up naming the kitty? :)

[Caroleeena]

@aliXsin She named her Jaq, since we found her on the way to the Jack Johnson concert. She was so little we weren't even sure if she was a boy or a girl at first so Jaq seemed like a nice fit since it could be short for Jacqueline if need be. She is a beautiful full grown cat now. And so sweet.

@Caroleeena our Cockatoo pulls his feathers when he is bored and that is when he is sitting on our lap. It happens!
