More pics! The baby of the house this time

[Uniqueviking]

My Baby: Boomer.

He is 10 mths. old (and HUGE, lol...12 pounds already).

I hope you can see him properly! I've found out it's hard to photograph black cats :\

(Oh, and if you wonder what the why the inside of his ears are green, well, it's from his ear tattoo)

What a boy...I can't believe he's only ten months old?! Are you sure he's not a panther?!
Very handsome!!!:) :) :)

[catcrazylady]

What a BEAUTY! He's just so very regal looking. He certainly looks older than ten months! I think you're gonna have a BIG boy there!! You should show him off more often!!http://petoftheday.com/talk/images/our_smilies/biggrin.gif

What a handsome fellow! Of course I'm partial...he looks just like my Ali girl. More pictures, please!

[jenluckenbach]

Black cats are impossible to photograph!!! But those are great pictures!:D

Didn't know babyboomers were so cute:)

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

I love all black kitties, and he is a beauty! I agree that he's one big cat if he's 12 lbs and only 10 months old! Tubby would be proud. ;) :D

Are the tattoos for identification purposes?

[ramanth]

What a beauty he is! :D

[catlover4ever]

Boomer is a very handsome boy. His fur looks so sleek and soft.

Your absolutely right...I too find it very difficult to photograph black cats.

[sirrahbed]

ah YES!! Boomer is absolutely stunning! He looks like black velvet and so shiny.

[jazzcat]

He is beautiful. I'm another one partial to black kitties!

I wished I could get some good pics of Jazz. On top of being solid black she turns her head every time she sees the camera.

Thank you all :)

Yup, he is only 10 mths old. The first time I saw him was ½ hour after he was born, and he moved in with me and the 3 "girls" at only 4 weeks of age, because his mommy didn't have any milk for the litter and all the kittens were spoken for, so they all went to their homes for hand rearing.

His other name is Baby Satan, lol...he was absolutely terrible up until a month ago (Luna's and Lily's Meowmie can tell you alllll about that, lol, coz she had to listen to me complain, haha.) but according to the vet that was my OWN fault, because he is so terribly spoiled, and I'm sure Beans, Bownie and the Beddy Bear was ready to give him up for adoption a million times :o He was always very vocal and still is - especially if he wants attention or wants to play.

Actually he is not really regal...he is more of a umm, lazy lump!

Yes, the tattoo is for identification should something ever happen. Not all vets check for chips, and not all people take cats they find to the vet - With the tattoo (which was made by the vet at the same time he got neutered) anybody can tell the cat has a owner and he is registered in a national database with his own ID # and my name so I'll always be able to locate him :)

Here the brat is with just 4 weeks (webcam pic so the quality is not too good) - I also have videos of him and the 3 girls from the day he came here til now.

Some of them are hilarious - When he was smaller Beans used to literally SIT on him when she'd had enough, and I have it all on little videos :D



4 weeks old:

He was ADORABLE from the beginning!!!http://petoftheday.com/talk/images/our_smilies/biggrin.gif
You say he used to be really bad but now he is a lazy lump. He must have gotten it all out of his system early!!! I can't imagine that face being bad!!!!:D :D http://petoftheday.com/talk/images/our_smilies/biggrin.gif

"Baby" Boomer is very handsome! WOW, hard to believe he isn't full grown yet! Nice pictures, and yes it is very hard to photograph black kitties!!!:)

[Uniqueviking]

Oh, but he was...and still is to a certain extent. He STEALS everything he can possibly drag off/carry in his mouth (I know, I can always find it under the bed, though).

Anything from printer paper and money to underwear and whatever he finds on the computer desk, kitchen counter and bathroom shelf, lol - I've never seen a cat do anything like that before.

He even tried stealing what Anne, the vet, had in her bag and the tools from the cable guy, lol :D

But dispite it all, he IS the baby of the house and it's so sweet when they (all 4) sleep in the bed with me at night :)

[Kirsten]

Ahhhh, the little Boomer baby... :) Hard to believe he's sooo big now! He definitely looks older than 10 months now!

[Tonya]

Oh, my! He is soooo cute!

First, black cats are suppose to bring the owner (slaves) good luck. I had 2 of them and I had good luck, so it much be true. (Was so lucky to have them) You got some really pretty pictures of Boomer, I love his name. Sounds like it fits him too...

Chester, my Big Boy I call him now, weighed 14 pounds at 1 year but you could tell when he was a baby that he would grown into a BIG BOY! Bommer may be heavy by normal standards but is he big according to his body size/ bone structure. Chester never did look fat, just BIG, he is long and tall.

[CatDad]

I loved the Boomer Pics.:D

I am also partial to black kitties. I also agree they are some of the hardest to get good pictures of. You did a pretty good job though.:)

[Craftlady]

What a handsome guy :)

[IttyBittyKitty]

Love them blackies! What a big boy he is, but our Randi at six months is even bigger and eats more than I do ;)

[stacwase]

He's soooo black and sleek and shiny! The perfect little cat burglar.
