    My New Kitten. *Updated - He's home!* Added more pictures.

    I currently have 8 pets at my house - 2 dogs, 5 ferrets, and 1 kitten named Maximus. He is about 4 months old now, and he thinks he's a dog. He is constantly surrounded by dogs, whether they be our dogs, or the foster dogs that are always in and out of the house.

    My fiance and I thought it would be a good idea to get him a buddy so that he has a little feline friend to play with. A friend of mine in Tennessee takes in orphaned kittens and bottle feeds them until they are old enough to be adopted out. I am adopting a kitten from her...he is 6 weeks old today, and eating solid food and using the litter box already.

    We are naming him Commodus...so we will have Maximus, and Commodus, from the movie Gladiator

    The woman emailed me pictures of 23 different kittens....(yes, she is bottle feeding 23 kittens!) and I picked him out because I fell in love with the 2nd picture of him.

    I'll post more once I get him on Saturday afternoon.

    Introducing Commodus!!

    I promise I will!!

    I specifically wanted to adopt from this woman because the has her kittens around dogs a lot, so he will be used to dogs being in his face already

    I hope him and Maximus get along well!

    Aww - are orange cats usually great cats? I can tell he will be because of his smile in the 2nd picture

    I figured if we got a color that was different from Maximus's grey tiger stripes, it would be easier to tell them apart!

    I forgot to mention....if anyone wants to adopt a kitten, let me know lol This woman lives in Tennessee, and has 22 more that she is going to find great homes for

    I had mine tested for FIV and had a fecal test done as well, before having her sent here, and both were negative! So he's healthy! Yay

    I was thinking his name may be a bit long.

    Maximus's is easy - we just call him Max for short. But what the heck do you shorten Commodus to? Commie?! lol

    Here is Max, by the way. His favorite spot to sleep is in my jade plant.

    Commodus is adorable!! How bout Odus as a short name for him? I look forward to more pictures of him and Max after this weekend. I'm sure they will get along just fine.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    How about Modo? Then when he's acting like he's got bats in his belfry you can call him Quasimodo!

    I love his goofy little smile!

    Love, Columbine

    Well, you could call him Odie, but in the comic strip, Odie is a dog...

    What a darling itty bitty baby kitty! I laughed out loud where I saw the photo with his big eyes and goofy little smile. When I saw Max in your jade plants I thought how big he's getting - then I saw him in the blue basket and he still looks kittenish! These two are going to keep each other busy. And we on Pet Talk will have another cat continuing the fine Orange tradition!

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!


    "That's the power of kittens (and puppies too, of course): They can reduce us to quivering masses of Jell-O in about two seconds flat and make us like it. Good thing they don't have opposable thumbs or they'd surely have taken over the world by now." -- Paul Lukas

    "We consume our tomorrows fretting about our yesterdays." -- Persius, first century Roman poet

    I think the picture of him in the jade is about a week more recent than the one of him in the basket, so maybe he looks a bit bigger!

    He's definitely turning into a handsome young man right before our eyes

    Congrats!!! Your new kitten sure is a cutie pie. Orangies are wonderful cats and have great personalities too. My Sunny is a very goofy boy. I can't wait to see more pictures of both of your kittens.
