Diego

May 18, 2010

skuds says: Diego came to us when he was about six weeks old. He had been part of a litter from a local farm cat. When we saw all six in a basket we wanted them all but somehow knew that one would be enough of a handful!

We wanted a kitten to keep our six-month-old Chiquita company. The day Diego arrived she was promoted from kitten to cat and she greeted him with some hissing but within a week they were curled up in the basket together. Having seen his mother and half brother, we know Diego is going to be a big cat, but for now he is the baby of the family.

As I scrolled down the pictures were cuter and cuter! This cat has mojo and mega personality. Glad Chiquita got over her first impression and welcomed Diego--she's a beauty too.

Handsome man!!! :-)

Would love to see how big he gets as an adult. I have a 20-21 pounder that has big feet, and I can imagine how big as a kitten. Diego will be one handsome giant.

What a precious cattie little Diego is. He is so tiny, but has big paws so I guess he will grow into a very big, handsome cat. Love the picture with Chiquita and him snuggling together.

Size of the paws has a lot to do with how big a cat will be when he or she grows up. The body size not quite so much. My Demon came to live with us when he was 8 weeks old. He was actually too small to get his first shots on time. The vet was afraid of hitting bone. However, He (Demon) not the vet, grew up to be a 23 pound very big boy!
