    In few months your little Herbie Snowflake will turn into Polar Bear. He already looks big, and male MCs tend to be on Gargantuan side.
    One of my cats is high white; she reminds me of a mountaintop when she is belly-up.

    Herbie Snowflake has rather massive paws (see pic where he's playing with the mouse). Although his mum is quite small, her kittens tend to be large. His big brother is a big chunky lad. Interesting the slightly different mix of genes - maybe he'll turn out bigger than Larry!

    Here's a short clip of Herbie playing with the OH:

    hope that has worked
    Eh? no idea why that link is in German

    Herbie looks so cute and vulnerable in the video. He brought tears to my eyes; I would cuddle with him 24-7. You now have such a nice combo of colors (only red and cameo colors are missing)

    Only a week to go before Herbie can come home with us. It already feels like he's part of the family - he's just not here yet! The breeder has been using his name and says he knows his name now when she calls him. And he's 1.7kgs which seems to be quite a good weight.

    However, as of yesterday we have 2 feline lodgers. We have taken them in temporarily for a close friend of ours in difficult circumstances, and we're not sure how long they will be staying. They are 2 delightful moggies, brother and sister, only 18 months old or so. They may still be here when Herbie comes next week, in which case we are looking at a 6-cat situation, yikes! So far, there has been no swearing or spitting, just lots of wide eyes and sniffing under the door. So I'm cautiously optimistic that our lads will be OK with the newcomers....got everything crossed for that!

    Oh dear... that's unexpected circumstances. How wonderful of you to take the two moggies in. I understand you're keeping them separate from Barney and the Coon Brothers?
    I hope things will turn out OK when little Herbie arrives.

    Yes we're keeping the lodgers confined to the spare bedroom for now. We are the emergency accommodation, they may be moving on to some temporary accommodation soon, pending an eventual return to their actual home which they have had to leave due to squatters. Poor little things are being moved around a lot but at least they are still with their Dad.

    Squatters in a house that’s already occupied? How did they manage that?

    On the bright side you will see how your cats adjust to having strangers in the pack and may ease Herbie in. Hope things work out for you are the cats x

    It's a long story...basically the tenant in the house is refusing to leave and things have soured....to the point where tenant has evicted landlord (our friend)... said tenant is also my sister unfortunately with whom I cut off all contact 3 years ago for these sorts of reasons...we are all stressed beyond belief and seeking legal advice...poor friend & his cats are in the thick of it!
