Hi all, thought I'd post up some photos of my new addition. Always had cats when I was younger but after the last was put to sleep (at the ripe old age of 20!) we couldn't bare to have another... Until now. We've had Indy about 6 weeks now, he was 10 weeks old when we brought him home and took these photos on his first day home

I couldn't be happier with him, he's so so affectionate and he ate 5 spiders in his first week! He just loves to be around people and will follow us around to play in the same room.

He hasn't climbed many curtains yet, just the net curtains in my mum's room once or twice - not a regular occurance lol.





His first snooze


Hmmm how can I get under here????




Finally asleep after a hard day chasing imaginary beasties

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww bless his little paws Hope your net curtains survive ours have lost many battles

Awww, he is precious!!

I have to say, not one of my cats have ever climbed the curtains. I've had cats my entire life, the previous 5 I have had their entire lives (two are still with us at 16 and 17!) and I have 3 kittens now of 5 months and 9 months and they are all too lazy to bother with chasing things up the curtains. Maybe my curtains just arent that appealing

He is SO cute!

Mine love climbing the curtains. One of them has mastered taking off the curtain hooks to play with so I often get up in the morning to find half he bay window curtains hanging off!

Very cute! My mrs wanted one that colour originally.

He can jump so high already! I really can't wait to see what he makes of a real christmas tree hahaha. I will need to make sure the holder is strong enough.

I wasn't sure if that's what a 10 week old was meant to look like, I thought he was a bit small, he was in a house with 3 adult cats and the other kittens and he seemed to only be able to get a little but of adult cat food. He would do anything for food when he came home, he never over ate though.

He's 3 months 3 weeks old and currently weighs 2.3kg. I'm wondering if he's going to be a big cat?

He's also starting to get the hang of sitting on command! Only for cheese though lol!

Can anyone suggest any good kitten toys? We've got a mouse on a string, a bigger mouse with catnip, a couple of balls with different textures and one that has noisy things inside (he looks like a miniature messi). He also loves his homemade toys, a ball of tin foil keeps him occupied for while, but he generally loves the top of the pouch of food that gets ripped off, he carries it around proudly as if he caught it

You also should have seen his face at the vets when somebody walked in with a bird in a cage. I see where the saying "eyes bigger than your belly" comes from now!

Hahha omg I just realised you posted a photo buffie that's hilarious!

The only time I saw him up the curtains was in my mum's room, I looked at the window because I heard a noise, and saw a cat shaped shadow half way up the curtains, then it dropped to the floor and he sprinted off with his tail all bushy lol
