She just ran across my lap top keyboard (mainly the function keys) and now everything on my screen has increased in size, not just the internet, icons, the wallpaper, everything.

How do i get it back? It looks stupid.

A little bit of fish or some cat biscuits is usually a good way...... and most cats do look stupid. :D

It's common for them to jump on the computer. My two cats love chasing the mouse pointer on the screen.

I imagine this is your first Kitten? I'm pretty good with cats, if you have any issues / questions PM me and I'll help you out. Just some general stuff about Kittens though which people may not have told you.

1. Don't give them milk, all cats are lactose intollerant. Water is fine.
2. try to keep the Kitten confined to one or two rooms for the first week or so.
3. You may wish to block off any small confined spaces that it could squeeze into, for the first few weeks. One of mine was stuck between a wall and a television cabinet for about 20 minutes at one point. It had crawled in and couldn't get out. We could hear it but couldn't find it!

If I think of anything else I'll post it for you, but give me a yell if you have any questions.

Yep, forst cat.

She's been pretty good.

She's only pooed on the carpet once, every other time she's used her litter box.

She does like to crawl behind the couch, but she's mostly slept in her bed.

She's just very hyperactive. She'll run around for an hour, sleep for 10 minutes and run around crazy for another hour and so on.

I'm litterally covered in scratches but my two male housemates interact with her fine.

Sounds like she is normal. They are a little hyper for a while when they are younger. As they get older they settle down a lot. Mine now sleep about 14 hours a day. They have little spurts where they are hyper for about an hour a day and the rest of the time they are just slinking around.

Once they find the litterbox (and it sound's like yours has) they will use it all the time - unless - the litterbox is excessively smelly or you have some pot plants or something in the house that they take a liking to. Keep the litterbox clean and ditch the plants and all should be fine.

As for the nails, I clip my cats nails once a week. Get into the habit of doing that and you will find your furniture will last a lot longer and your cat should be more fun (and less painful) to play with.
