We are gonna have a 6 pack!!!!
Our new manx kitty arrived today He is a rumpy which means he has no tail at all not even a stump. He is also an amputee as he's missing his back foot which was due to mum being a bit over keen on the cleaning dept when the kittens were born. His name is tripod Our oriental type kitten is 14 weeks old and this little man is already on his way to being much bigger. She is over the top trying to muscle him and he's a little spooked by it. Now he's crashed out on the ouch beside me And our other girl PC she claimed the new bed straight away This post has been edited by Mama8: 02/02/2013, 05:51 PM

I can't wait until Tripod works out that PC is a good playmate and they start playing So far he comes out of the kitty hut and growls at her ewrs some food then back in. She's a bit confused. He's such a chunky fella compared to her and he has huge feet!

He kind of shuffles I've seen him tip sideways a few times but he seems to get around ok. I've seen him trying to use his leg to scratch his ear lol No dramas so far with the litter tray which is good.

Thank you we are pretty stoked with them. We also have out old puss who we found while out 4x4ing a few years ago. She's is not tolerate of kittens so she steers clear of them.
