Hi, I’m Mack, I recently moved to Naples, Italy, with my wife who’s a local. We adopted a Persian/European shorthair mix from a lady who couldn’t keep the kittens of her cats’ first litter. Iron Frittatina, IF for short, will be 5 months on Dec 14 and they’re the cutest, most cuddly baby I’ve ever seen. Growin up I had lots of pets, from many German Shepherds to buns to parakeets, hamsters, fish and a snake, but I’d never had a cat nor rly interacted w one before, because my dad has an acute phobia. It’s also my wife’s first pet.
we adopted IF two months ago, they’ve been vaxd twice and have an appointment for neutering on the 20th.
IF is rly friendly, they’re always followin us around, and they love being held, sleeping under the covers w us, bein w us in general, but mainly waking me up to get me to play w them for hours. Their favorite game is fetch, which is great for me bc I don’t even have to get off the bed when they’re up for fetch. Other than that, they like hiding behind the curtains and attackin the passin toy mouse (Mr Wilbur) and balls. We set a tiny play area for them which includes a tunnel, a hammock chair, a scratchin panel, and some dangly shiny objects. We live in a studio apartment so our space is otherwise limited. We’re gettin them a tiny cat tree w two levels on Monday. IF never tires out but they sleep all through the night, on the bed, until dawn when they wake me for their wet food. They love tryin to steal our food while we eat, callin our attention when we’re doin somethin else, and just bein super spoiled. They’re also great w other people, they quickly warm up to guests and visitors, even if they’re not as cuddly w them. the only person they hate is the vet. i told my wife i didnt trust the vet if IF didnt but she said i’m just the kind of parent who’d give in to anythin the child’d want... Anyway, sorry for the long winded intro, here are some pics of IF:

What an adorable kitty! 
Welcome to TCS. We look forward to hearing more about IF's adventures. And more photos, of course.
And congratulations on becoming a first time cat parent.
