Tutu Tues....uh, Wednesday

Would you believe Mommy forgot to put up my Tutu Tuesday post? Well then, we'll have a Tutu Wednesday post! I can't let all of you miss me for a whole week, right?

Tutu : Yes yes, this is me when I was 3 days young. I love my milk!
Tutu : This is the same milk I drank as a newborn and I still LOVE it! Hurry up and pour it in my bowl, Mommy!
As soon as Tutu hears me ask her "you want milk milk?" and hears her special "milk bowl", she makes the cutest baby mews and starts purring very loudly. It's so adorable!
* lap lap lap lap lap *
DELICIOUS!
Tutu : Oh, there's a tiny bit left!
* BUUUurrrrrrppppppp *
Tutu : See? I can burp on my own now. I don't need Mommy to pat my back like when I was a baby
Tutu : That milk is lip smacking good!
One week after I started her on coconut oil. Her skin is no longer itchy and the scabs have cleared up. Her fur is also growing back. Click HERE to see how it was before she started the coconut oil
* B I T E *
Tutu : Don't mess with my bum!

Mommy : I just wanted to get a picture of your itchy spot
Tutu : NO!
Tutu : This is a bonus shot of cutey me since you had to miss me all of yesterday (my mouth is open because I had just nommed Mommy. Mommy doesn't taste yummy like my milk)

Tutu Tuesday

* grumble grumble grumble *
Tutu : Look at how wet my furs are!
Tutu : The water has messed up all my furs!
Tutu : Finally! I think I'm almost done putting all my furs on my legs back in place...
Tutu : Good COD! Look at the mess back here!
Tutu : Mommy, I really can't believe you did that to me. I thought you loved me
Tutu : Dang. Between my toes too?  When will this end!
Tutu : I'm not giving you any love biteys this week, Mommy
Tutu has been chewing and barbering two spots for weeks now. I wasn't sure if she had fleas (highly unlikely but it's tough trying to find a flea in her dark furs) that caused an allergy. So, after taking weeks to prepare myself to be mauled by her in the bath (I try to avoid using flea treatments where possible), I finally gave her a bath last Friday and was relieved when she didn't seem to mind the bath (no crying, no fighting, no nothing).  Surprised?  :)
Tutu : Ohhhh. This smells delicious! Tastes really good too!
Tutu : What is it, Mommy?
Mommy : It's Coconut Oil
Tutu : Oh. What is it for?
Mommy : To help with the itchy spots
Tutu : So why did i need the bath!
Mommy : Er...well, I only saw Star's post the day after your bath. Sorry! 
I read about how Coconut Oil helped Star's skin condition, so I decided to give it a try on Tutu. Despite the oil smelling coconuty, Tutu LOVED it. She gets 1 teaspoon a day
These are the two spots at the start of the Coconut Oil treatment (Saturday, April 13)
PS/ I applied some oil on the spots and Cosmo licked it off!
The Coconut Oil I'm using on Tutu. Day 4 and her furs seem to be softer and more silky. She's also not bothering her bald spots very much now. Does it mean it's working? I sure hope so as coconut oil has many other benefits!
Our prayers go out to the people of Boston affected by the senseless bombing at the site of the 2013 Boston Marathon.
