New Kitten




Here's Mr NTB and the new (and yet unnamed) member of the household.

You can see how she stole my heart in a single glance.

What a darling!

Karen R said...

How cute!!! And - what does Ms. Trubs think? Have she ever shared you with another feline?

kay jones said...

Is it just the angle of the pic or is she a midget? Lovely tho.

Anita B said...

What a cute little powderpuff!!! I'm curious about how Trubs is reacting, too????

Very, very cute! How old is she, and boy is she tiny! What kind of cat is she? Is she comfortable enough with you yet to cuddle? Since I've never had a cat before, I've always been curious how you manage to train one to use the litter box.

She is adorable but way to young to be away from Mum. I'm really hoping Trubs decides to mother her. She looks like a little panda!

Melissa Hicks said...

She is quite young and we will be taking her to the vets soon to make certain of her age and get her appropriate shots etc. She is already litter trained and is preferring Trubs elderly cat kibble to her own kitten food!

She loves Trubs and wants to play with her. Trubs is not sure why we brought this *thing* into the house. She's so far been avoiding the kitten but not acting aggressively - which is a very good thing!

The kitten slept out on the lounge in a puddle of crocheted blanket last night while Trubs was in the bed with us. I think this helped let Trubs know that she was still top cat.

Presently Trubs is out the front extending her territory and the kitten is in the bed with Mr S. I can hear his occasional yelps of "ow".

Melissa Hicks said...

She is a midget with a very short tail!

Melissa Hicks said...

She's just a moggie. She's apparently 7 weeks old, but we think it might be more like 5 weeks!

That video was taken in her first few minutes in the house. She now runs and jumps on all the furniture in the lounge room. And as soon as she sees us she runs up to us. She loves sitting on shoulders and surveying the world. During dfinner last night she ran from one of us to another in turn, around and around.

She didn't cry last night, but she started purring as soon as she saw me this morning and came running up to me. The lounge room is not locked, she can leave it at any time, but she cuddled up on the blanket last night and appeared to have slept all night - which is more than Trubs did. I think Trubs is having a front lawn border dispute with another cat at the moment which is not helping matters.

Who needs a cat toy when there are fingers to be destroyed?
Good to see Mr NTB teaching the hunting instinct to the most adorable little kitten EVAH!

Jodie Hill said...

She's an adorable kitten!! Hope Trubs doesn't get too jealous of her new little companion... Enjoy!!!

Very cute kitty! It sounds like Trubs will adapt too. She may just ignore the newcomer.

Julie Dollery said...

She's a stocky little thing isn't she (but then, aren't we all). Not sure about those white ears & nose in that hot WA sun, watch for sun-burn.
Make sure Trubs gets lots of cuddles and I'm sure they'll be inseparable soon.
Lastly, I must say, NTB has a very Heston Blumenthal look going on.

Stephen Silk said...

Heston Blumenthal? I know he's a chef, but that's all...

Mariann Mäder said...

Yep, adorable little thing! I love the coloured tail and ears. Usually I'm not too thrilled with white cats, but the colours on both ends of this little one really make her one of the cutest kittens I've ever seen!

Kudos to Madam Trubs for not being aggressive towards that little thing :-)

Lyne-Elizabeth Blodgett said...

She is certainly adorable - to bad I'm just so allergic as kittens are so lovely

Julie Dollery said...

Google him. Ian & I have a great respect for his cooking talent & intelligence, so you're in fine company...as is he. In fact.....NTB & Heston...never seen in the same place at the same time....hmmmmmmm
