My DH and I were grocery shopping on September 4th. When we got there we made a beeline for the restrooms because it's an hour drive to the big stores from where we live. As I got there I see a lady with a TINY kitten coming out and talking to a worker at the store. Turns out the kitten was found alone in the women's rest room. He had been dyed....yes I said dyed yellow. DH and I shook our heads at people's cruelness and started to do our shopping, we didn't make it far...we kept looking at each other and finally just grinned and went back to save the kitty. The store would have just had him sent to the pound which in our area is a kill shelter.
We got him home after buying food and litter pans and a new bowl. He couldn't have been more than 4 weeks old, he was sooooo tiny. We've had him for 2 1/2 weeks now and he's doing wonderful, the rest of the kitties all love him and the yellow is starting to fade. It's turning out that he's going to be a gorgeous flame point. We've named him Rocket for both the flame pointing and how fast he is. He just LOVES to run from one end of our house to the other as fast as he can. It's a hoot!
He's got the most unusual coat for a kitten though. His guard hairs are fairly long and the down underneath is almost like lamb's wool. I thought it might be due to the coloring but it's staying the same as the color leaves his coat. Has anyone any idea what kind of coat type this might turn out to be?
