New kitten, chez-Marco
Some images of our new kitten, a ginger tom, called Emrys. He's 9 weeks old, and a right wee scamp!
I'm ferocious, I am, all 6 inches of me.......
He loves his furry hot water bottle...
And our beautiful big girl now, Abella, the 'leggy princess' (she’s only 1 and a half, and the size of a small lion!)

Lovely photos Marco, looks like your hands and soft furnishings will be getting 'shredded'...

Oh wonderful! I bet he's a naughty little puss and a real character
I can't go on and I can't go back, I don't feel so matter of fact,
I tried and tried to make good sense, What's the good to try it all again?

Lol - defo, Dom! Torties are gorgeousCould be twins!
And yes, Chris (and Dave), he is a handful, but huge fun. He's a right little rascal (so cute) and chases the girl cats around the house - well he is a boy, and he's not been 'done' yet!
Little does he know, though, that they have!!

Just wait until he's six months old or so and starting to "swagger" before considering him for "the op." Our Titchpuss never lost his "Catitude" and was a very dear friend and companion, as well as boss to Ollie, who remained the "baby" of the pair.. My Gawd I miss 'em so

I know, but we can't for various reasons at the moment. Anyway, Mungo fron next door would get the hump - we're "The Annexe" and he comes by to keep us in check at least once a day. I'd go mad if he didn't...
