Well, the first two pics were from the end of Oct 2002, when the vet estimated that Bailey was only 4-6 weeks old. The last pic was from Thanksgiving 2002, when Bailey was probably 8-10 weeks old. Bailey was only 1.5 lbs when those first couple of pics were taken, but today, he weighs 16 lbs, 3 oz. He is still a very lean kitty though - he is very tall and muscular. That's actually a good weight for his frame. Leo's a tiny 1/2 inch or less taller than Bailey, but he has a gut on him, whereas Bailey doesn't, which makes Leo a little bigger at 17 lbs. If we'd raised Leo, he might not have gotten that gut, but he was on his own for quite some time before he was rescued by the rescue group and adopted by us - no telling what he lived through!

They are amazing, fun, angelic little creatures, and it's great to see them grow from silly, cute little kittens in to magnificent cats!
