    Ready for cute?
    Do not attempt to adjust your monitor - she really IS this cute!

    One kitty is awesome, right? But TWO kitties, well - you can't get much better than that!

    After getting Karl to agree to bringing this girl home for a "trial run", I believe he has been completely captivated by her. I think he fully intended to agree to the trial period to only say that one kitty was enough. By noon yesterday, he was completely smitten and had named her Alexis - or Lexi for short. I call her Princess Alexis - because she has established her role firmly as "Daddy's Girl".

    He's still resisting that title right now, as he reminds me that they are both MY kitties, but HE'S the one that puts a blanket in his lap so that she'll be comfortable while she naps. He's the one that I wake up to at six this morning saying "be careful - don't squish Lexi (to find him playing with her in bed). He's the one who has very gravely told me "now you be sure you say her name to her a lot so that she learns it".

    Karl has never had a kitten in his life. He "inherited" my three kitties that have now passed on. I brought her home Thursday and he didn't get to see her until he got home Thursday night after I'm in bed asleep. I wake up hearing "my gosh you're little!!!!" and "oh my goodness - you're so tiny!"

    And then he got to spend time alone with her yesterday morning without my influence and saying "see, isn't she adorable".

    Sammy is getting lots of personal attention from me, but the two of them play together, even IF he wants me to believe he's far to dignified for such juvenile games! :P

    If Karl had decided that he still felt one kitty was more than enough - I did have a great home with a co-worker lined up. Actually, several people have threatend to steal her from me.

    Meet Lexi - very possibly, "the cutest kitten in the world"!

    She has got to be one of the prettiest calico's I've ever seen! I love that deep rich red tone against her other colors. She'll be a gorgeous adult.

    I knew this kitten was going to capture Karl's heart....how could she not! She's just too darn cute!

    Poor Karl, trying to keep up his big macho man image, but we all know he's just a big squishy "awwww!" just like the rest of us...:P

    Tell him not to worry, his secret is safe with us!

    AWWWW! She is too sweet! We have had calicos before but never with the blocks of colors like that (my brother always refered to ours as 'stir-fry' cats)

    She is beautiful! ^_^

    Karl is the typical guy, John was the same way with Maya and now as you have seen it Maya is just daddy’s girl.

    Somehow men just don’t want to admit that kind of things.

    She is adorable congrats to both of you!

    Oh my!!! :aww: I'm more of a dog girl myself (might have something to do with my cat allergy, but that's never stopped me from owning at least one cat). I would be happy to take that kitty from you too. She's beautiful. Where did you pick up this newest addition?

    She came from Animal Atlanta, the local pet store where I pick up feeders when I need extras. I saw her there the same day I got Sammy (after I had gotten him) when I went in to pick up crickets for the geckos and fell for her then and then couldn't get her off my mind.

    I too have always loved calicos, and Chynna was a long haired calico too.

    However, I do think that the events played out the way they should and that Sammy found me, because after just one week, I can't imagine life without him - she just completes the fur family!

    Yah - her fleas (or flea) was just adorable last night too! :mad:

    I'm stopping by to pick up some Frontline for her and Sammy and re-apply Diamond's Frontline this evening. And lightly spraying my carpet with PAM.

    She is the cutest baby in the world, and she loves to suckle your hand or finger when she's sleepy which is just so cute it should be illegal. What a way to figure out how to wrap Karl around her little paw. I think his heart melts every time she does that (ok, mine does too).

    He even moved a humongous plant today so that "the baby can get to her sunny spot to nap". :D

    No WAY! She's all MINE! Even though she has Karl wrapped around her paw, he reminds me that the cats are mine. Diamond got sick last night - I think he's happy to have other animals around to blame it on so he doesn't have to clean it up! :mad:

    Thank you Jo - I can't wait to see how she matures. I die every day at work watching the clock so I can get home to see all my fur babies!

    Yeah, he is a big squisy "awww!" As soon as he stumbles out of bed, he's got her in his arms kissing the top of her head.

    Thanks - I really love the way her colors are so separated and how her orange have tabby stripes in them if you look closely!

    I don't know how I missed this, that kitten is freakin adorable! I love the long fluffy coats. Like Christie, I'll probably only ever have one cat since I do have allergies, and we already have Binka, but I couldn't have said no to THAT face!http://img116.exs.cx/img116/1912/t7xhappy.gif
