That's cool - It'd be fun to have a kitten.... It's been years since I actually had a kitten. All my cats just sortof show up at the door somewhere between their 4th and 7th life.

Halvah was my last kitten - she's the one Mom showed up with unexpectedly - came to where I worked and said she had been bad. I went out to the car and she had this absolutely adorable pudgy little fuzzball. She was one of the cutest kittens ever.

Tam, on the other hand, looked like a white rat with a Jimmy Durante nose. He was oooogly.

Tam is still a kitten in a lot of ways. Halvah still swats him on occasion for being a nuisance and not knowing when to quit.

It'll be another decade or so before I take on another Siamese kitten. I barely survived Tam's kittenhood. He was seriously a monster. I can remember calling Mom practically in tears to complain that I hadn't slept in nights and that he wouldn't SHUT UP, no matter what I gave him.

She wasn't very sympathetic. Heh....

But he at least would burn off energy playing with Halvah once she showed up.
