New kitten--what is she??

She looks like a miniature Pearl. That means that whatever she is, she is beautiful. My two cents, she has a lot of Lynx Point Siamese in her. She's a cutie for sure!

I know exactly what she is, adorable

Hello all, and thanks for the warm welcome!!!

FYI for those of you who were curious--we have named her Kiya. It's exotic like her, and means ocean in Polynesian! I thought it was fitting.

She is adorable, no matter what she is! I had to put down my "Pixie".... Maine Coon of 17 years last summer, due to cancer....and wasn't ready for another fuzzball unti I saw her!

The mother was adopted by the lady who found them-- and her brother and sister were adopted together by a lady who showed up a few minutes after I did. I'm just glad these cuties were found in time to make it, as they all had horrible URI's....and that they were all able to have a chance to love in life--besides being feral reproducers!! I have only had her for about a week, and she is already the sunny part in every day...true to Siamese form, a talker-- and very good at communicating what she wants! If any of you are also dog lovers, I've attached a pic of her new 'mom' (who is a male!)..they are cuter than I can describe with words! Thanks again for the warm welcome---I'll post pics every once in a while to show her changes!!

Wow, Kiya has found a big mom!

Very cute! She is adorable. I will wait for grown up pics!

Aww, Kiya and friend, you look so comfortable together! (What's your friend's name?)

**amberha7** · 07-26-2010, 09:48 PM

Thanks! Kiya and Sidney (one of her friends) are very comfortable together! She also loves my kids (20 months, 8 and 9 years) and my Jack Russell who is 15 years old-- and she has acclimated better than I could have ever hoped for! I had looked into adopting from local rescue groups recently, and many will not adopt to families with small children or dogs, which is a shame. My kids and dogs love her as much as she loves them--and I think the animals increase the kids understanding of responsibility as well as thier love for animals (especially the baby ones!!)....both attributes they need to work on for later in life!!!

As for the dogs, I can understand rescues wanting to put already fractured babies into a safe enviornment, but maybe this should be considered on a case by case basis, instead of the decision being so blanketed.

At any rate, Kiya is growing SUPER fast....and it has been a blessing to watch! She is all kid right now, and as goofy as ever! She is very loved, and I will definitely update you all on her growth from time to time! Until then... here is her favorite kid!
