Kitty pictures!
This is Baby







A few weeks after I lost my Angel kitty last summer, I adopted two long haired cats. A few weeks later their former owner told me she missed them and wanted them back. Since the fur was playing havoc with my allergies, I let them go.

Then about a month later I saw an ad a woman had placed on a local website that a cat she had found needed a home. Either someone dropped this Baby off or she got lost one day. The woman couldn't keep her, so I contacted her and she brought her to me. She's a little over a year old and we've been together almost three months now. When I saw how beautiful she was I was going to name her something fancy like "Sheba" or "Sable," but I started calling her Baby and it stuck. Mom takes rotten pictures, but you can at least get an idea of how pretty she is!

1. Aw ... So pretty!
Among the many cats I had growing up was a "Baby" (as well as a "Mama" and a brother named "Cricket"). This Baby looks a lot like the Baby from my childhood. :loveya:

4. Thanks!
She has such a tiny face that I had a hard time calling her anything else. And a Baby meow too, LOL! :hi:

10. That is rare. I thought at first it was a camera trick or some editing.

14. No, it's all her
She has the most unusual coloring I've ever seen on a cat. The lady who found her called her a "calico," but to me she looks more like a tabby. I guess she could be a "Tabico" ;)

19. After the kissy face
Bullwinkle turned and continued to browse on shrub bark and buds, and fluffy just sat there and watched. No harm to either critter.

13. LOL, I don't think there's an "aperture" on a Kodak disposable!
I don't take alot of pictures and don't have a digital camera. Sometimes I get a disposable if I'm taking pics for eBay. But that's why they came out so icky! :hi:

16. She's got all kinds of colors
Not quite a gray tabby, but some tabby surely.
