Meet Lucy and Desi

View media item 285113
I adopted these cute sibling kittles (yes, I affectionately call them little kittles not kitties) 6 weeks ago at the age of 7 months.  They are Lucy (on the left) and Desi.  Desi is about 1 lb bigger than his sister.  They are rescues and definitely bonded to each other.  

​They pretty much have the whole house explored now.  They are definitely at the adolescent stage too.  Sweet little things they are.  

beautiful! They look alike! How can you tell the difference?

You really have a matched set, don't you?  They're really beautiful and that's a great photo, too.

The male, Desi, has a larger space between the rings on his tail plus he is a little bigger.  It's much easier to tell when they are next to each other.  Separately it's harder to figure out.  Of course, their personalities are a little different too.  Lucy is more reserved where Desi is out and about more.  Lucy, however, is usually the troublemaker.  

I was wondering how you tell them apart too.    You have a matching set of "kitty book ends."

Just put collars on them for the first time so now it will be much easier to tell them apart.  Went pretty well.  Lucy did the best with it.  Desi is not as happy but is being very tolerable of it.
