Kitten, anybody?

That was quick - 6 weeks old, eating solids, drinking cow's milk and house-trained.

Now they need homes - except for Geoffrey. Geoffrey stays. A most ungainly, misshapen but clever cat. A go-getter which will unfortunately probably include go-getting things we wish he hadn't gone and gotten.



Palangi (behind Geoff) is a boy. He has been the least interested in trivial matters like food but is the most interested in the outdoors. Sits at the window watching more than the others. He's a big picture boy.



Eddie likes being handled. He is the most like his mum. Small and fine featured. Not that you can tell from this shot. He's the sensitive type.



And last but not least is Tabs - another boy I think. Possibly the prettiest and knows it. He likes to watch his reflection in our highly polished piano. A self-aware sort. Sam's favourite so parting will be tricky.




David would keep the lot. I am a tad more practical. If we can find good and caring homes they will go. Kitten anybody?

This is a message to my wife:

NO!

(Sure, we only have three right now, but...)

Oh boy! If we weren't in the middle of a $1,000+ drama with my favourite right now I'd be sorely tempted...
And I suspect your 'ugly and misshapen' Geoff may turn out to be a fine cat, too.

too many cats (3) share our bed already so no thanks. 2am fights are already reasonably common.

Tabs has a boy face IMO (much more scientific than checking under the tail LOL)

Wino, Humans are pretty adept at telling sex from faces so can't see why it shouldn't apply to felines.

my two kids cant wait to adopt a kitten we would be very keen to have one if not two. Still around or all given away?! specsnz at pagmail dot com

I really, really, really wish I could. But it wouldnt be fair to the Kitty as hopefully I will have to go away for 3 months and there will not be anybody to look after it.

Ohh I wish one could come live with me. Sadly I live in an apartment, with no outdoors, on a busy Wellington street :(
