In January our family adopted one of the female kittens of Raven
and Rexx, who we named Xera. We adore her and she has been a
wonderful addition to our family! She is a constant source of joy and gets
along very well with my kids. She actually seems to be most attached
to my four year old daughter.
She tolerates the kids without any problems and actually cries if they are in the
backyard and she can see them out the window! She hates it when they leave
her alone, so I try to play with her when they are outside so she won't be lonely. She
does try to follow them when they run out to get on the school bus in
the morning, so I try to feed her right before it's time for them to go
out the door so she doesn't try to follow them or cry when they leave in
the morning. And of course, she has the two older cats to play with all
day. The one mostly ignores her, but the other will wrestle and play all
day with her. She also gets into everything - no roll of toilet paper
is safe! We double check the dishwasher/fridge and dryer every time we
close them.
Katmandu
Kat is incredibly quick and athletic, as well as gorgeous. He also loves to retrieve his ball and growls if Al tries to take it away. Katmandu never shows any interest in going outside, but he loves to watch the birds on the feeders outside the kitchen window. He's wonderful in every way and he loves for me to hold him. He has one disconcerting habit, which is to try to nurse from my ear lobes! Have you ever heard of that? I've almost broken him of it by turning my head every time he tries, but when he was little, I had to sleep with a shower cap on...he was very persistent. He really does love to retrieve his "mouse" and he's beginning to like his ball too. He's exceptionally quick.

Ryan and Sunny
We just wanted to let you know that our new kitten is settling in very well. We named him "Sunny" because he is like a ray of sunshine after a storm. He loves his new home and what a sweet disposition! He has a loud motor, and can carry on a great conversation and is real cuddly, too. We just adore him. It makes us feel good to see Ryan so happy. Sunny slept cuddled up to him the entire night. Before he left for school, he said, "Mom, take care of my kitten while I'm gone." April Blackmon
