happymole I think our Ginger is going to rule the neighbourhood whereas little Meow seems so much quieter and shyer - I suspect she'll be purring on my lap to keep me warm in t'evenings

FAB I'm so chuffed at FabCat. She's a very clever kittie!

Oh no, when they come to me they will not be allowed out after dark or alone until they are 30 at least!

FabCat just licked the bowl completely clean when I gave her the juice from the tin of tuna.

Hope you won't be letting them stay out all night catting about Pinot

We had to give her normal food but with the powder and she has also eaten some biscuits. I am a happy mummy Grin.

FAB I xposted - so pleased FabCat is doing well. What has she eaten today?

bruffin Rosie is gorgeous! Sadly, Meow and Gingers sister died at 5 days old - she was called Rosie too so I had a bit of a shiver when I saw your pic. She was just like Meow but without the beauty spot :(

kreecher These little kitties are a part of my family now so not even a million pounds strapped to a naked Ryan Reynolds would make me part with them. But if you could arrange for a naked RR to at least try then I'd be eternally grateful Grin

kreecher - Pinot is keeping the kittens and there are only 2 now as Rosie died Sad.

I actually Oh-ed out loud when I saw the top picture of Meow. Adorable.

My cat was waiting for me this morning and looks really well today. I am sat on the floor as she has the sofa HmmGrin.

They are so cute! We adopted a cat in feb, who had just had kittens, your little black and white one looks just like her (picture on profile)

Coming to this very late. Your cats are gorgeous. Me and DD are moving to the UK in August and will be looking for two kittens then. If you don't have plans for them, maybe I'll be applying for ownership. We only want two though.

NotShortImFunSized · 05/05/2011 12:56

Pinot - I did think of that but I'd cave before him Wink

To be fair it's not the best idea where we live, there is a pretty fast road just outside, we said we would never get a cat whilst we are here. Our deranged puddy had different ideas, just walked through the door one day at about 8m old and never left!

She is smart enough not to go near the road and must have already been used to it.

I am still very Envy when I look at the pics of your newest babies though. LOVE the new ones! Absolutely adorable. Well done on the weight gain and good luck with the KLW

Grin at Meow getting an inferiority complex!

SummerRain · 05/05/2011 12:54

Oh lord those pics are to die for [swoons]

Meow is a cutey, she looks so like a kitten we had a few years ago. (i may be biased as all our cats are black or b&w!)

HazeltheMcWitch · 05/05/2011 12:53

Yes, Pinot, maybe it is MEOW that you'll have to paint, so he feel like he belongs?
Perhaps you could dye his white bits ginger, so he is ginger and black.

OMG those new pics are so lovely.

It's amazing if you scroll through all the photos you've posted, to see just how much they've changed in less than 3 weeks. You're doing an amazing job, Pinot.

Yay for gingers! I am a human one and have 3 ginger sons so Ginger the kittie fits right in - seriously, we may have to paint him when he's older so we can actually find him, such is the orangey glare in this house Grin

Oh my sweet lord. I have never gone for a ginge in my life, but am so feeling the love for one now.

They are a-maz-ing.

Went to look at a (bigger) house the other day.....and I did think of kitten space when dp was harumping about storage space and cupboards to put his spanners in.

ClaireDeLoon · 05/05/2011 12:32

Adorable!

Oh I so want a little kitten. My two hulking boy cats would make it's life a misery though as they are so rough with their play fighting.
