I'm in love!
Isn't she just gorgeous?
I apologise for the camera shake etc but i forgot to take the wrist strap off the video camera and Buffy was tugging on it the whole time.
Ahh well it kept Gypsy still for a while anyway :)
I saw the shadow and thought you were playing with a toy. Buffy wants to be on youtube as well x
Oh you little sweetheart, your fluffy duster is coming on too!!!!!
I know why you are keeping her Mick shes a little cracker.
I was giving Buffy her supper and Gypsy decided that it's time to be weaned!!! Face first straight in the dish, I didn't even see her stroll over LOL

Awww daddy's girl x
Mick have you found that having been a single kitten, Gypsy is a lot more confident? I was reading something about that but I can't remember where now...I thought of this little lady!
The article was about the differences in kitten behaviour based on the size of the litter. I'm not sure I completely buy into it but it said that in larger litters of kittens there was often a 'leader' whereas in smaller litters they tended to act more as equals, spurring each other on (to mischief, probably!) Then it said that single kittens were interesting because they were apparently the most confident with humans.
Most certainly, Gypsy is the first singleton we've had, and is by far the most advanced for her age regarding confidence. She was climbing and exploring much earlier than kittens from previous litters. She actually answers when i talk to her, and she comes running to me when i go into see her in the nursery.
I've noticed that there is already a pecking order developing with Saffi's litter and they are only 5 days old! It seems it might be a gender thing too as the males are far more "pushy" for want of a better word.
One thing I have heard before and also found to be true is that if 2 kittens are rehomed together they tend to stay "Kitteny" ie more playful further into their adulthood. We bought Jasmin as a single cat and she matured very quickly, didn't play so much after she was about a year old, she still plays but very infrequently. Whereas we bought the two brothers Rocky and Diesel together and they still act like kittens at over 2 years old.
If I had the nerve i would explain this to potential owners who come to see the kittens, but I don't as i feel it sounds too much like a sales ploy sadly. " hey, take two kittens they stay playful longer"
I'll add the 'If we get another kitten soon, then our cats will be more playful together' reason when pleading with Dave for number two!
That's interesting because my breeder told me that she had a single kitten once who struggled a little and was quite shy. I guess it must vary :)
I'm glad all the little fluffballs are doing well!
Actually i thought a bit more about Gypsy.
She may be more sociable because i'm spending a lot more "one on one" time with her than i usually do with my kittens (i'm worried about her development because she has no littermates to play with)
Well that's my excuse anyway, and a damned fine one if i say so myself :D
This photo taking lark is turning out to be hard work :) Here's Saffi's litter at 16 days old;

She is such a little poser :koolkat:
she is stunning - my red is a singleton - but did have other kittens around from 7 weeks old... he is way more afectionate that the kitten form the other litter - not sure if its because he is a singleton or whether it is just because he was special
Well the kitties hit 6 weeks tomorrow and all bar one have wonderful homes to go to. It's absolute bedlam in the nursery now, they are into everything. Awesome!!! :D

And here's the little girl who is still available, she is a real sweety and rolls over on her back to have her tummy tickled. She has fantastic colouring, plenty of copper and silver. I think she's going to be the image of her mum when she's older.
