Pip

November 28, 2010

Jan says: Pebbel's sister Pip is the perfect follow-up to her black predecessor Ebby. She is the softest cat you can imagine, in every sense of the word. She will never raise a paw or claw against any of us, but once outside she is a very good hunter. Last summer she mostly caught frogs and would gently carry them home alive! We could release every single frog she caught. Birds were less fortunate I'm afraid.

Pip has a thing for anything she can creep into, so sometimes we cannot find her. She also likes ambushing the other cats. From her hideout she will jump at them, but she is never mean. When you stroke her she purrs like mad; she is the purrfect kitty to have around.

Both these kitties are so precious-- --I know I sound like a horrible nag, but keep them safe outside (don't want to lose such preciousness)!!!!

They're the cutest little pair of sisters I've ever seen! I'd love to hold them while they purr to sleep.

Pip is really a pip. I love this shot because of her expression and claws. I know she is gentle but she looks like she has another side! And under the black fur is the "M" on her forehead. She is so shiny and frosted in places. Ahhh!

I simply cannot resist a sleeping kitten. Especially one so sweet-natured as Pip. Love the frosted tips of her hair. She sounds like a lovely baby. And lisaboese, you are right--please keep them safe if they are to go outside.
