Meet Baghira, Lily's brother (and her mother, #17!)

I visited Lily's first family today. She was born there 6 years ago, and they still have Lily's mother, Miss Marple, and Baghira, her brother. Even though he looks completely different, I found a lot of Lily's purrsonality in him. And he has the same soft fur.

Tried to take some pics, but black cats are so hard to photograph! *sigh*

Unfortunately, I got no photo of Miss Marple.

Here's a kitten picture of Lily and Baghira, taken 6 years ago:

I know you had to have heard me yelling "OH MY GOD!!" at Lily & Baghira's picture. Kristen, THAT is PRICELESS! Far to cute, sweet and adoreable for any word known to man in any language!! Lily and her Bubba...

You took excellent pictures of him too. Baghira is a very handsome blackie and you did a excellent job photographing him.. I LOVE BLACKIES!!

What a handsome boy! I'm looking at him in the baby photo and looking at him now, and laughing at how teeny tiny he was and how big he is now!

Baghira is beyond beautiful! He looks like quite a sweet and friendly kitty guy. I love the baby picture of Lily and her brother, what adorable babies they were! Thanks for sharing, Kirsten!

WoW. They look so similar in color in the baby photo and yet so different now. Thanks for sharing all of the photos with us. My Morgan is the only one of his family, mother and litter, that is still living. He had a sister, Callie, that was so teeny tiny even as an adult. She always looked like a kitten. Morgan was always huge. He was the largest kitten and now weighs over 18 pounds. I wish I had photos of him with his siblings.

Baghira is stunning! His head is the same shape as Lily's. And the baby picture of him and Lily is so sweet!

What a BEAUTIFUL boy! And I love the baby pics! Were there only the two of them?

Great to see them! Might the former foster have a pic of Miss Marple she could send?

HUGS to Lily!

Ahh, okay, since some of you have asked for it, I went through my old photos and found some of the mommy, Miss Marple: :)

This was her in 2006:

And these two were taken in May 2003 while she was pregnant with Lily and Baghira (there were only these two kittens in that litter):

And yes, she's a senior now, 10 years old. Lily and Baghira were her third litter, and she raised them very well.

Oh, and since you seemed to have enjoyed Baghira's kitten pic, here are some more: :D

What a beautiful guy!
My Jasmine had (has, hopefully) a tabby brother and a black and white sister. We do not know about their mom, as the kittens were found in the street.
It's nice that you could go visiting these people! I wish I could do it for Peppito's mom, but I have no contacts anymore with the humans.

I really think Lily resembles her mom.
And that Baghira is adorable. He was as a baby and he is a very handsome black panther now :)
How great that you have the contact to all Lily's family- most of us don't have the chance.

I'm sorry that the cuteness overdose seemed to have been too much for some of you! :D

That's true! They are actually friends of mine and even live in the same town, but I have extremely neglected my social contacts lately because I'm usually feeling too tired after work. That's why I decided now to finally visit them during my one week off.

There's no need to apologize for the cuteness overload, Kirsten. That's the risk we all take by coming to PT. Please excuse me while I take another look at baby Lily, baby Baghira, and their beautiful mommy.

As always, please give Lily and Luna plenty of lovies from me.
