Kitten has arrived. Felix took a good look at him, sniffed the cat carrier and went to take a nap. Jonesy is interested in him, but also careful and gentle, not pushing the kitten. Kitten isn't sure about Jonesy, but he seems to be coming around. Lots of hisses and growls in someone that tiny, though. The old kitties meet his hysterics with benevolent indulgence. :))

He's not as ugly as I'd feared, actually quite cute, but much smaller than I remember Jonesy being at that age.

Cute kitten!

And pretty cat!

They have such beautiful, thick fur.

Thank you :)

Adorable! If he's anything like the Maine coon across the street, he'll soon be big as a horse. Okay, maybe only a pony.

Yeah, with 16 months Jonesy is now around 9 kg (almost 20 lbs), I'm not sure this kitten will be as big as him, though. He seems more finely built. But with Felix (persian/housecat mix), around the house, it's easy to see how big Maine Coons are compared to regular cats. :)

cute cute CUTE!!

Jones is Welsh, isn't it? Murphy, something else Welsh/Irish?

Thank you :)

Jonesy was named after the cat in Aliens as C likes H.R. Giger, so we don't really have a theme with the names, but I like Murphy - actually C just had a Murphy's Stout with his dinner tonight.

Chessie wants to play with him! I was watching the vid and she ran up to the screen and tried to give him kisses :D

*lol*
Felix has almost the same reaction, but only on screen not in real life.

Oh, WOW! The cuteness is almost overwhelming! :D He's so beautiful - he looks a bit like a miniature lion in that first picture. I want a kitty, now! It's good that the older cats seem to accept him...he'll probably get over the hissing and that after a few days, won't he?

[frigg.livejournal.com]

Thank you. :)

He's over the hissing already, only hisses when he gets startled. And you should definitely get a kitty!
