Abby Baby!
 

At the end of May I adopted a 2.5 a beautiful pure white Longhair Exotic kitten, then 2.5 months old. I named her Abby. This weekend she will turn five months old - since adoption she has grown so much and more than doubled her weight.

Of course I couldn't resist posting an image of her here; it was taken last weekend during morning playtime. She is as sweet and funny as can be. Such a joy! :)

now that's Seriously cute Doug :highfive:

Abby certainly has some serious cuteness going on! Thanks for sharing, but really, just one picture?? There's a name for guys like you.... lol

Yes I think DD is right there should be more than one picture :D

:lovestruck: she is adorable though.

What a beauty, DougG! :lovestruck: But we really [I]do[/I] need more than just one picture...you know...so we can be [I]sure[/I] she's really as lovely as she looks in this shot!! These things [I]do[/I] need to be verified! (Plus it makes a wonderful excuse for us to pester you for more pics! :laughing: )

That face should be on a cat calendar, I love the hairy ears.

Ahh yes she definitely wants you to take more pictures to share.

Abby is just gorgeous, DougG. What is her temperament like? When we had our Persian I found her to be a very sweet, gentle cat. Not boisterous. Curious about the different breeds, what they are like to live with.

I bet she can get around in the dark good , I read cats feel their way around in the dark with their whiskers and hair in their ears. she is very cute.

Here's a new pic of Abby. Nine months old, and rapidly closing in on six pounds. What a wonderful little girl! :lovestruck:

She is very cute , what color are her eyes?

Nice and blue! I'll post a colour pic as soon as I have one that I'm happy with - she's a pretty busy little girl and I have dozens of totally blurry shots of her. :p

Abby is ten months old now, and just hit 6 pounds. :cloud9:

What a doll!! :lovestruck:

Indeed. And I think she knows it. ;)

For now here's a pic of her from when she was just a few weeks old, and still at the cattery. Lookit those blue eyes!

Wow, she has beautiful blue eyes , she sure is a cutie.

Yep, those are some gorgeous blue eyes for sure!!

Abby will turn one year old on March 10th.

She had her first heat last week. [I]Surprise![/I] :crazy:

I know we are lucky it didn't happen sooner.

Back to normal now thank gawd.

She is at the vet overnight and will be spayed tomorrow morning. I'll be pretty uptight until I talk to the clinic tomorrow after lunch. May leave her in until Friday morning to keep her quiet and resting, and as a post-op precaution.

Poor poo, not lookin' happy in her clinic cage. The clinic staff think she is the bee's knees. I do too. :)

I bet she will be so happy to see you. And that is great you had her spay . I hope Abby will feel better soon .

Poor dear. She'll be as happy to be home again as you will be to have her there! Sending along some :goodvibes: for healing!

She is absolutely beautiful. :cloud9: Speedy recovery little one!

Wow, she sure is pretty!

Abby was a very good girl after her surgery - I was worried she would be at her incision all the time and I'd have to put a cone on her but no, she left it alone and it is healing very nicely. The sutures were removed this past Wednesday and she is doing just great.

Glad everything went well - crazy good lookin' cat - and you are capturing her well! :highfive:

Yay! I love good updates, DougG! :thumbs up


Sooo....can we have more pics now? :D

She's absolutely precious :lovestruck:

Glad to hear Abby's surgery and recovery went off well. She's still just as adorable too!

Abby graciously interrupted her morning tear through the house to let me get a quick shot of her. Taken this morning in pretty low light, the sun was just starting to peek through the back windows.

:lovestruck:

I love the color of her eyes! Is she as soft as she looks?

I bet one pat is not enough, she looks so soft you'll want pat her all the time.

Abby's coat is indeed pretty downy and soft, but very different than our other Himmies - she doesn't have a heavy undercoat which mats up in the blink of an eye. Maybe that will change as she gets older.
