I've been hinting with a few friends this evening, and she has arrived. We are calling her Jool (Jewel) after another Farscape character. Jool had a scream that could melt metal, and this little one had one that comes close... At least I think she's a she... she's not too sure about not being with mommy, but she'll soon think we're her mommies...

Awwww...I want her! She is so cute! To think my thirteen year old was that size when we got him! I love the name. Is she a tortishell? Tortishells are usually females; I have one of those also. Enjoy her, they get big pretty quick!

the first bottle baby - and his bottle, he's almost 4 now
Nope, she's a brown tabby, cute as a snuggle bug too, but doesn't like being picked up. tell about growing big quick - I've done 2 rounds of bottle babies in the last 4 years

She looks like my long gone Mona Cat when she was a kitten, who wasn't just a tabby, but a Majestic tabby... that is, tabby but fluffy. Harmony is the same.

Jool - this is the best shot so far
Yeah, she reminds me of Solo when he was a baby - except he was remarkably quiet - of course, he had mom too - not that she was all that great a mom....

I hope Jool settles in with your 'pride' quickly, nothing like a new kitten to 'set the cat amongst the pigeons'! LOL.

Well, so far, she's not getting around much and they have to come look at her - she's too little to run around yet - the blind roomie might step on her. Most have sniffed then hissed, but Rygel came in and gave her head a bath right off the bat - he likes kittens.

I notice there is no concern for the fact the roomie called fall over! LOL. Cats adapt given time, and they will all be running madly around joining the crazy kitten in all games.

Congratulations my friend! She is just as cute as can be. I have 2 kittens who are about 11 weeks old. They are so much fun. Watch out for the cables, wires and cords around your house. You know you have to baby proof everything. I just found out the cord to my earphones (for work) were severed by sharp little teeth. I have to go out and get that stuff that protects the electrical wires. Otherwise have fun and enjoy. As you know the "baby" period tends to pass quickly as they grow so fast.

yeah, at least in my case, the big cats will probably help out more as she gets older, right now only Rygel and the dog want to mess with her

Jool - wiggling
I hear ya, when I wasn't holding her, she was looking around and kept moving - in fact, we were lucky to get a good shot of her, the others looked more like this:

After rereading this discussion a few times, is it safe to say you are talking about a kitten? At first I thought you were talking about a friend you finally convinced to come here to mylot. lol

I was right!! lol Jool sure is a cutie. I wish they would stay like that forever. Are you bottle-feeding her as well or is she lapping up her formula?
