Jan says: After the deaths of our three old cats, we decided to get two kittens to replace them. Together with 15-year-old Sheba, they were to form our new threesome. On the Internet we found a local litter and at once fell in love with two of them, one a lovely little calico girl we named Pebbel.

Pebbel is our lazy one. In the beginning we thought she'd be the ring leader, but that wasn't true. She is the most human-oriented cat we have. When we are sitting on the couch she will always hop onto our laps and stay there for quite a while. For some reason she always tries to catch the point of her tail and suck it vehemently and passionately. She is also most focused on food, so we have started calling her Fatso lately.

Even though she will be the first to come back in, she still loves being outside. She will spend hours on one of the brick posts in our fence, watching passers-by from a safe distance. When there's a bird in sight she starts chattering very loud, but she's a lousy hunter. Too much work I guess.

Very pretty calico girl. It almost sounds like she left mama too soon if she is sucking on her tail. Any other opinions from my fellow cat mamas? Hope we get to meet the second kitten that was adopted with her tomorrow:)

The naming of cats is a difficult matter, but FATSO? I would never show my kitty disrespect. Take it back, and shame on you.

She is adorable and why should she hunt when she is well fed? I always laugh when my cats chatter at birds. Of course mine do it from in the house.

The person above bugging out about the nickname Fatso needs to relax. LOL! It's a cat, she won't know the difference.

She's so beautiful! I never got to see my own Calico girl as a baby, but I would think she'd resemble Pebbles. Just adorable <3

Okay, Jan. Flickr proves you really love nature and this includes cats. The one called Scarface/Tommy is so gorgeous--what happened to his face? I guess he was one of the three oldies that passed away.

#Ariana--you know nothing about me. I have commented for over 10 years and I am old enough to be your great grandmother. Being rude will score no points with me. "Bugging out?" What are you, a teenager?
