Kim, yes that is exactly what Mopsy looks like, in fact, I thought someone already had a picture of her when I saw those. She does not have a little white bib on her chest, however, but that is a minor descrepancy, also I am thinking that her fur is a little longer. Thanks for bringing those photos up. I forgot to mention that Mopsy is no small kitten. I weighed her this morning and she is 10 lbs (4.53kgs). And even with her long fur that makes her appear larger than she really is, her overall lenght from nose to tail is about 30 inches (84 cm).
K & L that is a huge brood. How do you find the time to give to each furkid? Even with my 12 I have troubles with a few of them, mostly because of Mopsy occupying much of my time. I have a pin-up bulletin board next to the telephone. When ever I see papers on the floor I immediately know that Happy is not happy with my divided attention. He is the only furkid that does this whenever he feels as though I am avoiding him. Mopsy tries to avoid those who hiss and growl at her. I can understand her desire to sleep somewhere other than in the presence of those who have not accepted her yet. I hope this reaction lasts only for a few more days. I keep picking her up and placing her on my bed, so she will get used to it being her own place.
Songlover, when I first brought Mopsy in, I kept her isolated from the others. It was necessary to see how the other would accept her before I could let her inside with them to roam around at will.
I had a strong suspicion that she was OK healthwise, because of her being spayed and living outside without becoming sick. She was obviously some one's pet that probably had been dumped. so, I am sure she has had her vaccinations, along with her spaying.
