mc_shamo just snapped this photo:



I am tired and hungover, as you can probably see. Loki is just the most adorable kitten alive. He won't yet voluntarily climb into a human lap (unless we're in the bathroom, where he feels the most comfortable, even then only if the human is sitting on the floor perfectly still) but once he is picked up an plonked in a lap seems quite content to stay there for a little while. Slowly, slowly, slowly we make progress.

Dawwwwww :) glad to hear the mice were a hit! Hopefully I will be well enough to come and play with him soon (assuming he's not terrified of me since I am associated with the Evil Cat Box).

When we took him to the vet he climbed in it VOLUNTARILY, so I'm sure he wil have no bad associations to make with you. :-)

Awww. I'm so glad he's settling in.

And that photo shows how much he's grown! He was even tinier!

He is so cute! I love the little beard he's got going there (or is that under his chin?) BIIIG back feet, he's got a lot of growing left in him :)

I hope so, though possibly not, I don't think he got much food before Lisa and Penelope got him inside, hopefully it won't affect him longterm.

It shouldn't do - how old is he, roughly? Sodpot was an absolute midget when I got him - I think he weighed in at 680 grams at seven weeks of age, which is tiny, and he was the length of Alister's size-seven shoe - but now, at a year old, he's an average sized cat who weighs in at a hefty 5kg (photos below of this phenomenon). He was obviously malnourished as a young'un, but it doesn't appear to have had a long-term effect on his growth, so hopefully the same will be true for Loki (great name, by the way!). They do seem to catch up.

He does look like a dear little fellow. There's something so appealing about tuxedo cats :)


Midget to Boof in ten short months!
Seven weeks:


Almost one year (he's not actually that fat, he just looks it in this photo because he was lying funny):

Wow. I can't imagine Loki that big (but I'm sure it'll happen!)

So sweet! And so small!
