Just got a kitten.

they can be addictive... be careful!

Every life should have nine cats.

I'm on numbers 8 & 9 at the moment.

Alright now you are just pis-sing me off!!!!

This is sooo Bitter... LOOOOOOL I'm sure he's cuddly under his... eh, furry self.

This isn't my first cat, but it is my first baby cat.

I can't get a pic of it with it's tail, which seems half as long as it should be. Is that how it goes?

awwws!!

kitty needs a wipe around the eyes though - and if I recall right kitten tails are somewhat shorter I think

 

[bentcountershaft]

I really like cats but I'm allergic to them. Wasn't so bad in my youth but as I get older the more they get to me. If it wasn't for that I'd have a couple in a heartbeat. That's a cute kitty.

Nice!

Aw, Bitter, you ole softie! Props to you for saving the poor little thing. Although, haha, given how that the little guy/girl climbed up your leg - you really had no choice at all, did you?

Have you figured out if it's male or female yet? I assume female based on her colouring. Poor little thing looks either very young or very starved. Or both. Definitely needs some TLC.

Yep, a short tail is normal when they are very young.

Oh ETA a warning - if she has been starved, be prepared for some really stinky poo when her system kicks back into gear......we've been there, done that. It's not fun, but does pass (ha pun intended) after a while.

Good on you for taking in a stray. My wife and I foster for a friend's kitten rescue charity, we have 9 presently that will be up for adoption soon.

Have you taken the little critter in for a check-up yet?

 

[Bitter Jeweler]

Not sure of the sex.
Just "adopted" it today, but will take it to the vet soon.

Black Sheep, thanks for the heads up on stinky poo!


Like I said, never had a kitten, but definitely sense some abandonment issues. But it is so cute!

It plays with my beard. LOL

Now you need to teach it to pose.

 

[Derrel]

Yer' gonna need another flash and a smallish umbrella to use as a hairlight/separation light...I'm just sayin....

 

[dxqcanada2]

You mean like those little umbrellas that come with those alcoholic beverages ?

 

[Bitter Jeweler]

Now you need to teach it to pose.

Oh, don't worry. I'll be making a thread asking for pose ideas, prop suggestions, and what settings I should use.

And per Derrel's suggestion, where to buy a cheap umbrella.
