Kitten watch thread

[Peregrine Falcon]

Why has he got a cone on? Mine didn't and none of my others ever have.
.

Husband picked him up with it on and it's in the post op-literature. He hates it and I feel mean. I took it off so he could eat and had an absolute battle (score went Shadow 4 Me 0) to get it back on. My hands were shredded. I can't remember our previous boys having to wear one either.

Revenge is mine says Shadow!?

I've had males and females neutered and never had one in a cone in 35 years including Pickle last week. I suspect your vet is being over cautious! I'm on Shadow's side!

He's going overboard with cute tonight,

I see a trap! You go to tickle that deliciously inviting tummy and get grabbed by sharp claws and teeth!

Ludo in his lesson today, he was lovely and we had fun with some friends. They hadn't seen him for 2 years, they were astonished by the size of him. Two of them thought he was a different horse ?

That's a very large and well trained kitten.

I expect they were astonished to find a kitten had turned into a horse ??

Could swear I was on the photo thread ?

Kitten right now.

I know this one so well and the one where you really need a pee, and the one where you can smell the dinner burning, and the one where your legs have gone numb, and, and , and...
Kittens are awesome xx

How did I miss this?!
Another gorgeous black kitten
That is looking very good . I am a massive fan of getting new and old cats to play under supervision and the fishing lines and feather tipped sticks are perfect for this. I always get one from Zooplus with any spare bonus points

He's been meowing at the leaves outside. I went and got a couple for him, his little face watching me through the window was so cute.

There are at least 3 of us with new kittens, shall we combine on a thread so everyone needing a kitten fix can have one thread to go to?

I'll start. Current name is Pickle. Current activity is savaging my feet!

Lovely kitten, beautiful markings.

I am more impressed that you have a matching pair of socks, my dog always steals one of mine to bring me a present when i arrive home in the evening, so I have odds socks everywhere. At least a kitten won't do that!!

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Oh, kittens steal socks to play with! We have 7 odd ones to match up!!!

Isn't he just the most stunningly marked ginger tom moggy ever? I've never seen stripes like it except on a bengal. I'm wondering what daddy was.

Beautiful and if you look at Crazy Cat Lady's British silver tabby you'll see the same vivid coat pattern. British shorthair Red classic tabbies look exactly like yours in colour and markings. All BSH's originate from a mix of tabby farm cat and persan

He's completely gorgeous.

I have heard of that pattern with a sort of round shape on the cat's sides being called 'classic' before. With the narrow striped version of tabby being called 'mackerel'. I have no idea if they are the correct official terms though.

I know he's just a mongrel and I'm biased but I do think he's spectacular!

Yes totally correct
Classic, mackeral and spotted. There's ticked as well ....but we won't get into that

< Kasper is a spotted. You can see the way that the 'spots' line up to make stripes. It's all very interesting.

Here you go MC. You'll love this. Everything about coat markings and some of the cats are incredible. xx

Kitten training has commenced. In readiness for being let out, I have got a shaker filled with a few biscuits. I shake it, call him and he tears across to me for a bit of meaty stick as reward. He would kill for stick!! If you try and get one out of the cupboard, he hears you and tries to get it out of your hands and run off with it.

The fur family integration is going well so far.

Merlin like Chance but Chance is still hoping that it’s a temporary thing and Merlin will be going back soon.
