Pictures of my kitten.

This is my lovely kitten. We adopted her from the RSPCA last year. She's so incredibly cute that most of my thought functions cease when I look at her.

Her name is Bill, being short for Wilhelmina.

She is a lovely thing, but she looks a bit big to really be much of a kitten anymore. Did the RSPCA have an estimate about her age when you adopted her?

Very cute looking cat you have there, Gandalf. What breed is it?

Wow, she looks EXACTLY like one of my other cats, Reggie. Shattering coincidence.

She was about 6 weeks when I adopted her last Christmas.

But like many parents, I refuse to acknowledge my little kitty is growing up.

We're not too sure. She's half short hair and half long hair though. Her tail is really puffy.

I like the middle picture she looks so sute all tucked in like that, her front paws are positioned perfectly and her tail is all wrapped up around her body

I love it when cats sit like that.

Oh and yes if you got her in December of last year and she was 6 weeks then she is not a kitten anymore. Sadly they grow up very fast for us humans. They cease being kittens after a year of life, it's sad I know

Our kitten is already getting bigger, we just got her at the beginning of September.

Cute kitty you have there though. She looks like the cat we had (my sister takes care of her now) we named her Daisy. Unfortunatly she was abused as a kitten so she has weird problems like licking herself until all her fur falls off. Sadly she's gonna die soon.

Cute cat. Looks a lot like a Norwegian Forest Cat (the breed, not a wild animal), even if it's not one. I'm surprised they let you havet he kitten when it was still that young. Cats who are weaned at younger than 12 weeks can have all sorts of psychological and even physiological problems due to incomplete development. Of course, if it had no mother at all, that's a bit different.

She didn't have a mother when I got her. Kittens at the RSPCA (Royal Society for th Protection and Care of Animals) tend to be orphans. People's cats have kittens, then they just put the kittens in a box and send them away.

After visiting their kitten keeping facilities, the sight of all of those homeless cats made me want to cry.
