Kara's eye color is officially copper, and it's somewhat rare. Whatever. They still look brown to me.

Her sister did the same when we first got them, but doesn't anymore. So who knows why one seemed to grow out of it and one didn't.<br />Have fun with them!!<br />SoozeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2543784411582822907.post-46550303180310375622018-11-03T18:10:28.028-04:002018-11-03T18:10:28.028-04:00Thanks, Lamounier.

I ended up in the ICU this time last year with pneumonia, so I'm glad they caught it early.

Yeah Missy was over 20 lbs. at her peak. And shaped like a bowling ball. We got here when she was a kitten and she just grew and grew and grew and grew. She was bigger than Beau, who topped out at about 13 lbs. sunbunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08553429350476841139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2543784411582822907.post-8726863383386638472018-10-31T17:58:34.315-04:002018-10-31T17:58:34.315-04:00My adult cats ranged in weight from thirteen to ei...My adult cats ranged in weight from thirteen to eighteen pounds, so even though Kara and Des are gaining rapidly, they still seem so small to me. Easy to pick up with one hand, you know. <br /><br />Aw, dear little Beau. Bless him. If Des keeps the suckling habit his entire life, then so be it. I'll be there for him.Billie Douxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141769005175631213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2543784411582822907.post-65079033628240078752018-10-31T16:56:47.346-04:002018-10-31T16:56:47.346-04:00I'm so happy the kittens are doing so well!

My cat Missy had jade green eyes (they were soooo pretty). I feel bad for poor Desmond that he didn't get enough of Mama Kitty's attention. My dog Beau did this thing where he would suck on the edge of his bed as he fell asleep and I looked it up and it was due to being weaned too early. He did it his whole life. I hope Des grows out of his thing though. You paint such a sweet portrait of their personalities! Give them pets from me!sunbunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08553429350476841139noreply@blogger.com
