Peering over the edge, this kitten looked too scared to clamber out of the loft.

Gingerly Bella takes a step forward as she carefully tries to make her way down the steps with Kimba lurking behind her.

As the six month old kitten climbs carefully over the edge, she glances up at the white cat who is watching her closely preparing to pounce.

hen, just as she prepares to take her fifth step, Kimba reaches out playfully with a left paw and prods Bella's rear legs sharply.

The terrified kitten - who was not injured - is sent tumbling down to the floor below by the mischievous cat. ...

The trouble with a kitten is that
They eventually become a cat.

I love the expression on that cat’s face. Are you owned by that cat?

I have a pair of similar ages - 14 months and 16 weeks. This is exactly what would happen if the youngest were ever to display any hesitation.

Is that your kitty, Swampsniper? If so, he certainly doesn’t seem amused with you at the moment! He’s even sticking his tongue out at you!!

She’s beautiful, Swampsniper. It must be the name... every Missy I have ever known has had an attitude problem.

>>The trouble with a kitten is that
They eventually become a cat.<<

My daughter picked out the sweetest kitten at Petco. He was from a no-kill shelter called “Cat Tail Kitties”. He was white and grey with blue eyes and a big M on his forehead. With the size of his paws, we knew this would be one big cat. And she adored him. He spent a lot of time in her “starter bra” purring the whole time.

He was a little skinny thing so we got formula to feed him. Mostly he cuddled and purred. He went to the vet and got a clean bill of health. He loved our dog, the other cat and our bunny.

He got skinnier and skinner. Six weeks after getting him, he just sat looking at us. I took him back to the vet. Feline Leukemia. That stupid no kill shelter sold us a kitten who’s mother was positive for FL. After one transfusion, his blood counts went down again.

I wouldn’t let my daughter go to see him put down. When I went, the tech brought him in to me. He cried while she passed him to me then he realized who I was. He rubbed his face against mine and settled down to purr in my arms. The vet came in to give him the shot, he simply relaxed and stopped purring.

Not all of them become cats.

So sorry to hear about that.

It’s funny how even in such a short time a kitty (or a puppy, or any other pet for that matter) can find its way into your heart...

Is that a tortoiseshell tabby you have there?

We have a feral (well, I guess now she’s semi-feral) queen living in our backyard with three kittens (all of whom are still very much feral). One of them is a torbie with white belly and paws. She’s adorable.
