Hey all,
My wife and I rather abruptly acquired a kitten last weekend. We were planning on getting two kittens at the same time early next year, but we spoke with a breeder who was downsizing her program and got a really great deal. So we have 1 kitten now, and will probably get him a playmate in 3-4 months. He's my first cat ever (had allergies as a kid), and my wife's grown up with cats but he's her first that's all hers/ours.
His name is Juniper, and he's a blue abyssinian. A little scared at first and hiding underneath bookcases and underneath the couch, we sectioned off "his room" so he can't get out without really wanting to, and he's been much happier. He's taken to hiding behind the washer and dryer, and will pop out to play, eat, explore, and so on, and when he hears our voices he starts looking for us.
He's 13 weeks old, born on June 15th, and is very loving and playful. Super-playful! So, of course, here's the obligatory pictures:
