See how big Abby's gotten!

[AlleyCat]

Okay folks, I'd like to show you how much Abby's grown! She came to live with us at 6 months old last November, she's now 13 months old. She was a tiny, cute 5 pounder at 6 months - check out how big she is now! Without further ado ...

6 months old - 5 pounds

7 months old - 5.2 pounds

8 months old - 5.4 pounds

9 months old - 5.6 pounds

10 months old - 5.8 pounds

11 months old - a WHOPPING 6 pounds!


... yup, you guessed it! She's a cute six pounder, only ONE pound of progress in six months! She is one not-so-big ball of energy, it's no wonder she burns off all her calories. Honest, we don't starve her, we let her eat all she wants !! If only our 14-month old, 20-pounder Millie could pass off some of her extra pounds onto Abby. Is morphing possible?

Oh, I love seeing before pictures and after. It's so fun to watch them grow, how they change in appearance. 6 lbs is pretty normal isn't it?

The pictures are fantastic - love the one where she is cuddling with your other cat.

But this one - she has that Tabitha look down pat. Those eyes . . . . .

She does resemble my Tabitha... and she is petite like her too!

Oh gosh, Abby is so darn adorable. I just love her markings.

The name Abby must apply to small kitties! My Abby is just as tiny (and has the torbie markings too!) Gotta love that last picture with her tongue sticking out!

Some cats are just petite. Abby is obviously one of them. My former foster Topaz tipped the scales at just under 6 lbs.

What a cutie!!! I know what you mean about them not adding much weight due to serious workouts! If I only we could be as active as the youngsters then there would never be a need for Jenny Craig or Weight Watchers!!!

I love all the pictures but I think this has to be my favorite...look at that little tongue!!!

AND SHE IS SUCH,A FRIENDLY CAT,SHE WAS A DELIGHT,AT THE MALL INVASION,WHERE I THINK,THAT SHE MUST HAVE PUT,ON A HALF A POUND,AT THE FOOD COURT,AND THE BANQUET ROOM,AT THE LONDON INN.

Thanks, all! That little tongue picture is quite cute, isn't it?

Abby is NOT the brightest bulb at the lightbulb factory, but we love her dearly nonetheless. We wish she'd learn her name, but after 6 months we're not sure she ever will. When we're talking to her, she often looks at us with a blank stare like "huh" ? And, she's very uncoordinated. Not so that we would think she has CH, (vet agrees too) but she falls over a lot when playing - maybe due to being such a lightweight! We got her as a companion for her one-month-older kitsister, and those two just love each other (see photo at top.) She's truly a sweet kitty and we love her!

Aww!! Its so neat to see her grow up like that!

She's precious, Andrea!
