Pictures of our new kitty

She is so tiny. Enjoy your new cutie.

Hi all,

I'll try to answer all the ?'s I can remember:

Charm was born February 27, 2003 (so about 11 weeks old?)

We have her in a seperate room (my bedroom) right now so it's not too overwhelming for any of the furpeople. Also, she has an appt. with the vet tomorrow morning. I think we'll be putting the screen door (just like we did with Lucky) on the door after about 10 days. I think she may have worms - she's been wormed once already (April 23), but last night she was trying to cough something up (not sure if it would be a hairball or worms). Therefore, the other pets know she's there, but haven't met face to face. Well, our lab saw her and Charms tail got big and fluffy just from the sight of her. Lucky is acting a little different (which I'm chalking up to yet another change for that poor girl - she got extra playtime last night - just so she doesn't forget how loved she is). Kitty seems pretty indifferent right now. I'm expecting the Comfort Zone Feliway plug in any day and thinking how it will be just in time.

Nunny, sure you're welcome to come play - she LOVES to play and play and play.

Even though she's so tiny (and she really is) she can make it up on my bed. She would not sleep in "her" bed last night - she kept coming out and laying on my chest.

She was spayed May 14th and on the form it stated: unweaned.
She kneads my arms, legs, any bare skin available and then licks, licks, licks. Hmmmmm...is she still trying to nurse? I thought the kneading was indicating that very thing. Now, when she trys that, I'll take her to her dish and she'll eat some of her food.

I don't mind that she's sleeping on me, but I was so terrified of rolling over on top of her that I slept very lightly last night. (Did I care? Heck no.).

This am she was hopping around on the bed like a bunny - after some unseen (to me) object. It was so cute, I wish I'd have had a video camera nearby.

So cute, and I love the markings. Charm is a great name. She looks like she is non-stop into the playing.

Your kitty is really charming and the name Charm suits her perfectly, imho!

Charm is charming me to the end of the earth!!! :flash:

How adorable!!

Charm reminds me of Jamie, Tricia's kitty.

Smiles and Cheers!

Oh my gosh...Shirley, Daisy and Venus are precious!!!

Thanks you guys - for all your kind comments! I just love that we can all share in our joy for cats together!

Here are a couple more photo's:

Charm is using her scratching post!

BTW, I think it's great the way a lot of you are using "charm" in your descriptions of her - it makes me smile.

She sleeps on my chest at night, but I caught this after she came home - I had to put a large blanket in the pet bed as she was drowning in the thing otherwise. She had a vet appt. today and she's 2.2 pounds.

Um, Sandi? Where did you get a clone of Ophelia? She even has the white stop of her back that is almost exactly like Ophelia's, and the black spots on the back of her legs. This is starting to freak me out!

She is so adorable, Charm is the purrfect name for her. She is a charming little thing! Love how she's sleeping in her bed.

sandi Charm is so cute! her back also looks similar to my Leo's if you swap the black for grey!

congrats again and enjoy her! Play and Play.....and play!!

when I see those cute pics I just wanna pick her up!!!

It's amazing how much the likenesses between the cats are.

Don't let her fool you in that precious little picture in her pet bed. She sleeps in my bed - on me and she is a holy terror around 5 am. Now she's really biting at my knees and feet and it's going right through the comforter. She hasn't broken skin yet, but this am I just kept telling her "no" and "ow" and then finally after trying to get her attention on toys (to no avail), I would put her on the floor. It seems like she got the message, but I know I'm in for it again tomorrow.

Help!!!

oh what a sweetheart!

Aww how sweet she is!!

I absolutely love the name Charm. It certainly suits her and it's such a cute kitty name! Keep up with the adorable pics please!

Love Sooooooooooooo cute!

I LOVE the pic of her wrapped in the blanket! What a cutie!

Thanks! I loved that photo in the blanket, too. I was so afraid she'd wake up when she heard me turn the camera on - I was so lucky to get that shot. Because...when she's awake, she's so quick - it's sometimes very difficult to get a good picture of her.

Charm is a great name for a cat, especially since kitties are terribly charming.

She's so cute! It's been a while since I've had a kitten so it's nice to see these pictures. I'm going to have to drag out some of my old photos of my babies to remind me.

Oh Sandi - Kitty's Lucky Charm - I LOVE IT!!!!

Charm is SO CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We have two black and white kitties. I'm so excited for you!!!!!!!!!!

(I'm glad I finally caught up to the pics, LOL!)

She is adorable! I want a kitten! It sounds like she loves her new mommy, and you are under her spell. Her name certainly fits her.

You hit it right on the head, Brenda.

She can drive me crazy sometimes (usually 4 or 5 am) when I really want to sleep. But, she's well worth it.

Took Charm to the vet today and she is now on antibiotics since her upper respitory infection hasn't cleared up yet and it's been more than 7 days that she's had it. So, now we'll see if the coughing and sneezing/stuffiness clear up. If not, we might be looking at asthma, but the vet said she hasn't seen it in such young kittens. (Of course, anything is possible).

Her appetite is great and she still loves to play, play, play. Her favorite toy seems to be the feather toy (just like Lucky favored). Maybe they just enjoy the interaction with their "people".

Now, Charm will meow like crazy when I enter that room and I really have to watch, because she's so fast, she's right next to my feet in a flash. I've started to "shuffle" again.
