Baby Corn is really trying. #kitten #cutekitten #bottlebabykitten #blackkitten #kittensoftiktok

What was that face at the end? #babycorncat #blackkitten #kitten

We weren't able to test his thyroid, but I also don't think we had any success trying to figure out if he can see. Baby Corn looks so bewildered all the time and I've had questions on what he can see. It is hard to assess vision in a kitten who seems developmentally behind in so many ways. He is at least 4 weeks old, but his ear canals only just started to open up and very recently, he went from not responding to yelling back at me when I talk to him. Although we can tell that the eyes function as they should, whether they have connected to the brain cell or whether we need to find the brain cell first is still up in the air. #babycorncat #kitten #blackkitten #microkitten

It's (Baby) Corn! He's 5 weeks old and still only 200 grams. #babycorncat #kitten #blackcat

Replying to @miss_memuchOops! I didn't even know music was added to the last video so everyone missed out on Baby Corn's screams! #babycorncat #kitten #blackkitten #voidcat

Hope this makes your day better. #babycorncat #kitten #blackcat #void

This healed his inner child. #catdadha #dad #innerchildhealing #parent

Replying to @she.is.kate Baby Corn wants to know if you will accept this as payment. #babycorncat #kitten #blackkitten

Another day, another condiment. #babycorncat #kitten #blackkitten

Baby Corn would make a good Queen. Do you want to see a video of him meeting corn? #babycorncat #kitten #blackkitten

15 years old and perfect. #oldmannuji #fospice #seniorcat

He wanted to keep going, but my arm got tired. #blinkingcontest #babycorncat #kitten #blackkitten

We named him Baby Corn for being underdeveloped. #kitten #blackkitten #orphankitten #bottlebaby #braincell

He earned his name by getting more plumpy every week. #greykitten #graykitten #cutekittens #kittenlove #catsoftiktok #fyp #plumpelstiltskin #creatorsearchinsights

I deserved to be bitten. Sound up for Baby Corn purrs and squeaks. #babycorncat #kitten #blackkitten #voidcat

Baby Corn was very scared of corn. #babycorncat #kitten #voidcat #blackkitten

Nuji has now been with me for over 6 months and I only just discovered that he likes being held on his back and having his belly brushed. #oldmannuji #seniorcat

Moo Deng is gone. I knew this day was coming, but I didn't expect it to happen so soon. Heart disease is complicated in cats and I learned from Jack that it could go from seemingly fine to an emergency in seconds so we often don't have a lot of control in when we say goodbye. My great fear around losing Moo Deng was that it would happen when I wasn't home and that I would always be left with the uncertainty of whether he suffered. But I was home. When we came home Friday night, he was having a hard time breathing so I put him in the oxygen cage. Simon and I ate dinner on the floor next to him. His breathing normalized after half an hour and after 2 hours, he was able to breathe in normal air. I slept on the floor next to him and woke up at 3 am because my back hurt. I reached out to pet him and he was the Moo Deng I knew. He ate a churu. He crawled on my face to nudge me, his deep purrs were so loud in the quiet of the night and it made me giggle. We cuddled. He did two of my favorite things - he stood with his feet in the litter box and peed on the floor and made his little wail asking to be let out of the bedroom so he could be on the couch with his friends. Yesterday morning, his breathing was heavier than I liked so I put him on oxygen while I brushed my teeth. I went out to grab him a snack and was getting ready to give it to him when he had something that looked like a seizure and passed. I had recorded his breathing a minute earlier, something I do so I can objectively compare his breathing in different circumstances, and I had managed to catch the last moments of his life. So I can tell you this. I was with him. He did not know it was happening (nor did I). And it was fast. If there was any part of him that knew this was coming, at 3 am, he felt well enough to tell me he loved me. I had recorded and prepared a few videos of Moo Deng that I didn't get a chance to share and if you don't mind, I will do so over the next few days. I thought we would have more time so I had been in no rush to post, but now I want to make sure he is remembered because my little man with a broken heart deserves it. You allowed us to take in Moo Deng's entire litter and give them the care they needed. I am grateful that your support allowed us to give him the support he needed. Thank you @Simon Tung for letting me adopt the best kitten ever. #moodeng #petloss #grief #congenitalheartdefect

Good job, Moo Deng. I miss you. #kitten #familybusiness #catdadha #SmallBusiness #cattoys #cat
