Our Baby Arrived!

Hello Everybody,

Today was the big day and we finally got to pick up our lovely neb MC kitten! She is an absolutely stunning (but then I am hopelessly smitten!) Silver tortie tabby girl, and has been an absolute star throughout the day. We picked her up, and a 4 1/2 hour car ride later (through which she mostly slept) she just got out of the carrier and after confidently investigating the whole living room and an extensive play session settled down on the sofa right next to me where she let me stroke her to sleep. She is so lovely and I couldn't be happier! Here is a first shot of her playing - Enjoy!

Thank you! I noticed that too - her paws are a little red...what does that mean? Will be taking her to the vet for an initial checkup in the next three days, but hopefully it will clear up.

I mean the pads, they are just a tiny bit red in the centre, not bright red. Tried to check her mouth and tongue but she is asleep and won't open up! I will ask the vet about it - maybe she's just a bit stressed today. I don't think it's carbon monoxide, we have a detector.

She looks a sweetie and it sounds like you are totally smitten:rofl:
Welcome to the slave club:LOL:

She looks gorgeous - her eye does look a little sore but this can sometimes be caused by stress. Keep an eye on it and maybe get her checked over just in case.

She is a little sweetie & proves that "naughty torties" are in general pretty confident little people.If her eye is not fully closed,no nasty discharge coming from it,the white around doesn't look red then just gently wash it out with cooled boiled water,get a good very wet lump of cotton wool & bathe from the inside of the eye outwards,don't use the same bit twice & very often that will help anyway but as Candes said if in any doubt move your appt.forward. Are her pads sore red or is it just colour difference ?
Along with the others looking forward to updates of the fun you are going to have with this babe...x

Welcome to the club! She's a beauty :-))

She's lovely and congratulations! :)

She is adorable, wanna giver her a squeeeeeze! xx

She is beautiful. I love the torties.
