Ahhhhh, what a cutie. Those fuzzy guys attract every bit of "stuff" that sticks to their fur, but are so wonderful to rub. I had my baby fixed when he was 2 months old. Bestfriends.org did it for me, they are local and are a huge no-kill rescue animal sancutary. We thought "he" was a girl, and so did their vet until they both opened her up for a spaying, then had to change it to a neuter. Got both done the same day and it didn't slow her down a bit. We can't tell "her" she was really a boy until she is older to understand such complex matters. In the meantime, she is pretty fuzzy and I love it. Naming those new babies is the hardest part!

What a cutie! When mine found me, she still wasn't weaned and her ears not fully raised. I had a challenge with litterbox training and socializing her because I was working all day. She is still not one to be picked up and cuddled, so the more used to cuddles yours gets now, the better!.

Oh how special! I love the feel of a kitten! They are so soft, but watch out for those sharp little hooks! They have to learn how and when to use them! I have 5 adults with at least 10 purrsonalities! Wouldn't trade a one, but won't replace ALL of them whtn that time comes. :? Way too many littler boxes! :?

What a cute little ball of fluff!! :thumbup:
Being a veterinarian's daughter, I'm glad to hear about spay/neuter, but will you get it's shots too? Some of the things they get vaccinated for are real killers... :twisted:
