    New kitten--what is she??

    Hello all! I just got a kitten (we think she is about 10 weeks old, not 100%sure)... she was found with her mom and two siblings living behind a dumpster at ~5-6 weeks.

    After battling a URI and finally getting well, I brought her home last week. She now weighs 1 lb, 1 oz...is running ALL over the place, and has her teeth. She definitely has siamese-ish blue eyes and tabby like markings. Any ideas....and any guesses what she will look like as an adult? Any help will be greatly appreciated....even thought she'll be loved regardless! Thanks!

    If she is part Siamese, her markings will likely darken as she gets older, they start out pale, and then the "points" come in. She's adorable in any case! Maybe a tabby/Siamese mix, but it will be fun watching her grow up!

    Welcome to PT!!! Congrats!!! She's adorable. Well since she has blue eyes and tabby markings, I'd say that she's probably a Lynx Point Siamese mix just like my Pearl which you can see in my signature picture and avatar. She'll get darker as she matures. She'll also be a big talker and she may also be a very needy kitty. Good luck.

    She's precious! She's tiny! Does she have a name? Where are her momcat and siblings? I hope she grows up to look like beautiful Pearl!

    My guess would be a Seal Linx Point, perhaps.

    doesn't really look "pointed" right now, might just be a light silver tabby. Either way it's a beautiful kitten

    The first thought that came to me was waht occurred to My Pet Talk Friends a Lynx Point Siamese Mix.
    It will be interesting to see which predominates, the Tabby or Meezer. Either way she is a Super Sweet Cat^^ of The Future!!
    We think that Precious would be a very good name

    She looks like a miniature Pearl. That means that whatever she is, she is beautiful. My two cents, she has a lot of Lynx Point Siamese in her. She's a cutie for sure!
    Proud to be a crazy cat lady!

    Thanks!

    Hello all, and thanks for the warm welcome!!!

    FYI for those of you who were curious--we have named her Kiya. It's exotic like her, and means ocean in Polynesian! I thought it was fitting.

    She is adorable, no matter what she is! I had to put down my "Pixie".... Maine Coon of 17 years last summer, due to cancer....and wasn't ready for another fuzzball unti I saw her!

    The mother was adopted by the lady who found them-- and her brother and sister were adopted together by a lady who showed up a few minutes after I did. I'm just glad these cuties were found in time to make it, as they all had horrible URI's....and that they were all able to have a chance to love in life--besides being feral reproducers!! I have only had her for about a week, and she is already the sunny part in every day...true to Siamese form, a talker-- and very good at communicating what she wants! If any of you are also dog lovers, I've attached a pic of her new 'mom' (who is a male!)..they are cuter than I can describe with words! Thanks again for the warm welcome---I'll post pics every once in a while to show her changes!!
