A few new pics ... more on a roll to be developed soon!
Both Gwen (meezer) and Carson (whitie) have eye matting problems, so I had just put some terramycin in one of each of their eyes! But here ya go!

looks like your meezer baby will have long hair !!!! (or is it just the photo?) And little carson, looks small compared to his sister. I still want him ( a little Monte-wanna-be):D

I just love the tiny babies! I agree with Jen, I think that the little "meezer" will have long hair, just adorable! We used to have such beautiful kitties in our household when I was living at home :) I do miss them and hopefully I will be a foster mummy one day when I have my own home and enough time on my hands!

Newton is very pretty - he seems to be a cameo kitty rather than ginger (cammies are beautiful!) or is that just the picture?

Thanks everyone!

Jen - yes, I'm pretty sure the meezer is going to have long hair!

Carson is tiny compared to the other two .... but he's the fiestiest (sp?) !!! He's also the most friendly ... always comes meowing for attention! Wanna drive to TN to get him??? :eek:

Oh ... Itty bitty ---- I've been wondering what color to call Newton. He is a light brown rather than an "orangie" color. So is Cameo what that is? I think I will do a search online to see the comparison to Ginger and Cameo!!!

THANKS!

He sure does look like a cammie - imagine a colour in between ginger and white, and you've got cameo! Some cameo kitties can also be dark cameo, which is like a more browny, caramel ginger.

I'm not sure where I learnt about the color - probably in one of my cat books, but is a beautiful and fairly rare colour! You will have no trouble finding little Newton a furrever home (if you don't adopt him yourself!) as it is very popular too :)

Hi again!

I just found this color chart http://www.penmarric.ns.ca/Pedigree/catbreeds/domcat.htm
and it says coat of white hairs with red tips? I don't think that is what Newton is??? Maybe this chart is not right .... it's the first one I've found. What do you think?

A long haired Meezer would be a Himilayan.:p

Awww it so cute these days that you can see the babies growing from week to week. They are adorable. Newton just like Duncan is a boy:D and a boy and a boy.

Dear God. I am seriously entertaining the idea of road tripping to Tennessee for little Newton. I'm sure Sam will object.

:rolleyes:

Kim - that description is a big vague and it is hard to tell what they are talking about without a piccie! I did a bit of "sniffing around" and found that the "Cameo" colour is more often described as caramel, cream or buff. It is often hard to tell the different between caramel and more recognisable colours like flame. It is a very hard colour to define and most people think of it in these terms: "it's not ginger, but I still don't know what the hell it is!"

A good example is the maine coons - have a look at this cutie:

http://www.verismocat.com/htmscripts/uk.htm

In his coat, you can see the darker shades of "cameo" - they are almost red - and the lighter shades which are closer to your kitty's coat.

Another interesting site that you can have a look at is:

http://www.applejackcats.com/caramelapricot.html

It is a bit hefty, but interesting nonetheless! Enjoy!

Thanks! I'm still not really sure what he is is.... other than adorable!!! ;) Doesn't really matter of course, I just know he's not an orangie like he sometimes looks in photographs! He matches very closely with my taupe colored carpeting! :)

Oh, my, how adorable! I love all three! gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!:)

Agreed! He is gorgeous, they all are, they will be snapped up in an instant! I love having kittens around, they are such a source of joy! I was visiting Pixel today, and on her left were two gorgeous calicos (about 8 weeks old) and they were just clamouring for some love! Even sadder was the little kitty on her right - a tiny fluffball with tux markings! So cute, and only 4 weeks old! How sad is that, that someone would dump a tiny kitten like that? I know that all three will find furrever homes with no troubles at all but it is still very sad. I wanted to take them all home, but we are only allowed one kitty :(

I am new to 'Pet Talk' so I'm still "scratching" my way around
the site. Your kittens are so beautiful and precious! I'm hard
pressed to chose which I love more! I was interested in the
name "Gwen". I have a black German Shepherd with the same
name (Gwenievere) and her brother is Gryphon. The names
were taken from a J.R. Tolkein book.

Soledad, I will be heading down Kim's way next week. If Newton is ready to be away from his mommy then, I would be happy to pick him up and bring him North. We could meet someplace a few miles North of Chicago so I could hand your new baby over to you. That would save you many, many miles, and maybe Sam wouldn't object so much then. ;) :)

This might also give me a chance to go down and see Tubalina in person.......oh, oh......;) :)

Just let me know.

Also, if that doesn't work, if Kim is willing to meet me somewhere between TN and Chicago, I'd be willing to meet her and bring her a little further North on another weekend if he's not quite ready to be away from Mama by next weekend (May 10), or if you're not quite settled yet and aren't quite ready for him.

So just let me know if you really, really want him, I'm sure we can work something out between the three of us to get him to you. :)

Oh, and after all of that, they are soooo adorable! I love Newton's coloring - not quite orange, but not quite brown either. And Gwen is certainly a big girl compared to little Carson, but he is such a little cutie - as is she. Awww.......:D
