And this time it’s a real kitten, only six months old. We’re fostering her for a while until we can find her a good home. Her name is Sophie, and she’s a very sweet kitty. Here’s a picture of her sleeping on her adopted mother’s legs:
I tried to get a picture of her asleep, but her little kitten ears picked up my approach!
So far, she seems to be getting along fine with our current 4 antisocial cats. I think they more or less realize that she’s not here to take over and just wants to play. She actually is of a similar size and coloration to our most antisocial cat, Zoe:
We’re holding out a little hope that Zoe and Sophie will decide to get along, though knowing Zoe it’s a bit of a distant hope!
Update: In a fascinating development, our cat Sabrina is actually learning from Sophie! Sophie has been playing a lot with toy balls, batting them around and carrying them in her mouth. Tonight, Sabrina started doing exactly the same thing, even though she’s never done it before.
Sophie looks a lot like my little girl!!! How charming!
She’s quite the little sweetie-cat! Last night I stayed up late playing videogames, and I had Sophie on my lap or lying asleep against my leg for several hours. She had a busy day of playing!
Aww. She looks sweet. Fostering kittens can be challenging at times, but it can also be a lot of fun!
We just got a little tabby foster we named Cranberry (it being Thanksgiving and all).
She is a sweet kitty, and she seems to be making the other monsters in our house behave just a little bit better.
Are you going to post pictures of Cranberry?
