***Introducing two new PetTalk furbabies***

We picked them up yesterday and they are the dearest little cats :)

Mini and Jasmine are OK about the 'intruders.' Mini has only hissed a couple of times and is being pretty good. Jasmine is hissing a lot but going no further. They'll be fine :)

This is Pickles (OK, the name doesn't do him justice!) or 'El Diablo' as he is already developing into a cheeky little boy. He is a lilac Burmese boy and is four-and-a-half months old. In one of the more bizarre stories I've heard lately, a breeder bought him and some other kittens from his litter but had him desexed to restrict the number of kittens from that bloodline. But that's not all; she then returned him to the place of purchase as she didn't want him any more. Can you spell p-s-y-c-h-o??? :(

He is so beautiful, a creamy, buttery colour now which will develop. It's like Mother Nature hand-made a pair of silky pyjamas from top to toe for him. He's already at home and scratching furniture, scoffing all the food and dominating hooman lap space :)

Hope you like him.

Golden eyes which will no doubt mesmerise us into doing whatever he wants :)

And this is Tabasco (named after my favourite chilli sauce :))

He's a 10-week-old seal point Siamese. He's from the litter I mentioned in Cat Rescue who didn't eat at birth and nearly died :( All four boy kittens needed homes so we brought this little one home. He's smaller than Pickles and Mini and Jasmine so he's a little intimidated. He only just came out of hiding today and has bonded really well with Shane (he must associate me with being taken from his family). We played some games with pipecleaners and he seems to like me now :) He's very vocal and will hopefully be a true, talkative Siamese!

I'm little but I'm tough!

He hasn't quite grown into his ears yet

Playing with his bug. He's quite hyper now that he's decided to come out of hiding

Gotcha!

He looks like a little alien with those eyes and bat ears

NicoleCONGRATULATIONS!!! They both are soooo beautiful and hugable. Kitties are the best in the Whole Wide World :p

It seems that you always have the kitties in "pairs". Don't you?:cool:

The Lilac looks quite big for his age.
But I have a soft spot for Siamese. They are soo good tempered, and sweet.

Give them a big hug and a lot of kisses from the Antipodes.

OK,now, I'm ready to send you my X-cards, I was just waiting for "The the Annunciation":D

They are just gorgeous :) but you already know that! LOL
Congratulations.

Very sweet, both. Pickles looks very tender and cuddly. Tabasco reminds me of Filou in his movements. Never a dull moment the next months!
(I was always very reasonable and thought 2 cats are just fine for 2 people. But if I look at all these babies....)

My gosh, I want a ktten again. I think. These guys are so darn cute and impish! If you need a baby sitter, let me know.

Welcome to Pet Talk little guys!

:)

They are so great! Pickles is such a different and wonderful color. You seem to have a Daddy's boy there ! (or is that the plan-get him hooked then steal kitty back for yourself? Works for me!)
Tabasco is sure an interesting choice of names? But then again, I am sure that he is "hot stuff"!

Nicole- they are soooo adorable! Now, though, you have a lopsided family. Three meezers and one 'normie'...think maybe you and Shane could get two more to even it all out?

I love the names...hot and spicy and always getting himself into a pickle! May they live up to both of them..he he he.

Congratualtions on your newest arrivals.

CONGRATULATIONS MISS MEOW!
I love your new kittens! They are both so cute! I love the seal point coloring.
Could you remind us what Mini and Jasmine are, is Mini a seal-point Siamese and Jasmine a Tonkinese?
The Tonkinese is a darker coloring and a different oriental breed right?

More photos please! I hope you can eventually get one of all 4 of the cats together!:D

what cute kitties! I love the last pic of Pickles sleeping! And Tobasco reminds me of an abyssinian with those big ears!

Ohhhhhhhhhh , they are GORGEOUS !!!!!

Congrats to you , Nicole !!! What great news !!!

They are too cute !!! notice you carpeted the side of your book-case. Brilliant!! Love that pic too. Barbara, my husband also insits on the one cat per lap rule. Hmm, my parents will be coming to stay with us, so then that means we can get two more cats, yes!!!!:D

Congrats!! Both of them are very gorgeous!!

miss meow....they are beautiful......and i just loved the pictures....

A literary kitty and a big earred kitty -- what a pair!!(Not to mention how in AWE I am that with everything else you have going on you have time to open your house and hearts to tow more kitties!)

Congratulations on the new additions!
