Well, to say this little calico girl is keeping me on my toes is an understatement! Every day I'm amazed at how much energy a kitten has in there little body.At night she loves to snuggle herself against your neck and then will lick you like crazy. :D


I've been trying to get a good picture of her eye colour, but she moves a mile a minute. It's a beautiful amber colour but the lighting upstairs is creating shadows:

Since I always take close up pics, here's a size comparison with a waist high scratching post:

Here's Phoenix playing. Some days I wish I was a kitten!

Look mom, I'm this tall! Not a great picture, but it made me laugh!

I love my calico girl but hope that Nakita will also break down and become friends with her soon as well. ;) This weekend I'll let them go face to face and see what happens.

I fall in love with your adorable Phoenix more with each new picture you post. She must be some kind of sweetheart being so affectionate. I'm sure that with time and patience, Nakita will happily accept this strange little newcomer. Maybe Nakita needs to be reassured that her position in your family is secure and she's not being replaced by Phoenix. There's no question that before long Nakita and Phoenix will be the very best of friends. Scritchies and tummy rubs to both of your sweeties!

She is one gorgeous baby girl! Her eyes are stunning, and that chinny spot just melts me like butter!!! :D

What a little cutie Phoenix is!! :) Isn't kitten energy amazing? I so wish I had that kind of energy these days...even if just once in awhile! *snicker*

I hope the face-to-face intros go well. Kiss Phoenix on the chin for me! ;)

You take absolutely the best photos. I especially love the last one of Phoenix...you know the one that you say is not so good....well I LOVE IT.

Phoenix is adorable and in time I'm sure Nakita will come around. :)

What great pictures of your little Phoenix! She is so cute! Her eyes are very beautiful! And well, her markings are quite unique! (Duh, that's what makes her a calico!) :rolleyes:

That first picture of her playing is so cute.... "I'm gonna getcha! My butt is starting to move".... and she's gone!

I really love the pictures of Phoenix, keep them coming, I love you pictures of Nakita also. You're camera must be an expensive one to get such wonderful clear shots!

:eek: :eek: I just love that last picture! How did you catch her like that? Our camera is so slow I can't get action shots like that :(

Kittens are adorable and fun!! Oh how I wish I had a baby again!!

Just love the black spot right under that cute little chin! :D

Kakita may be put off at first by Phoenixs energy.
But I think that eventually they can learn to be friends, and Nakita may revert to her Kitten Days.
The Kitten Trio has certainly livened up the Found Cat Hotel.

Thanks everyone! :)

Yes, she is FULL of energy. I use a Canon camera for all my pictures and really recommend that brand. I haven't been able to get many action shots yet because I'm usually trying to play with her with one hand and then take the picture with the other. I'll have to get Rob to play with her and then I can focus on taking the pictures.

For the last shot I was playing with a feather toy on a stick and shot it up into the air and then took the picture. It's not very clear since I was moving the toy in my hand at the time. ;)

Wow - how adorable she is!!! Phoenix, you are such a special little girl - I'm sure Nakita will warm up to you in no time. I can hardly wait to see them together - what an amazing pair of beauties. :D

No chance of your life being boring any time soon :D :D

Hugs to both your babies,

Betty

Another "soul patch" kitty! She is so adorable! Does Nakita agree with me?

Thanks everyone! :)


Does Nakita agree with me?


Ha! Nakita's having a little hissy fit over Phoenix. Through a screen, Nakita will let out one long hiss and Phoenix will want to play. You know, all that hierarchy, top cat status stuff. :rolleyes: They're separated currently but we'll be introducing them, barrier free, this weekend. :eek:

Too bad Nakita wasn't male since I'm sure Phoenix would wrap around his heart in a minute. ;)

I hate to be the one to start the begging, but we need more photos.

I am sure, with time, they will become the best of buddies.

Don't forget - more photos! ;)

Whata a charmer - of course Nakita will break down and learn to love this little girl!

Phoenix is an adorable kitten! My mom was once gonna allow me to buy a calico kitten of my own but I already had CC so I chose not to. I regret it now because I love to have all the animals I can get. I just love this kitten and the photography skills, too. Not too mention your camera takes a very clear picture.
