Here's Rocky at just 15 weeks of age and very curious about everything,
including my camera.
 |
Rocky is so small that she fit in just one of his hands. She weighed 3 lbs. and gained 6 ounces during the first week we had her. She eats a lot!

She plays a lot as well. She's already got the nickname of Rocket-cat.
We have determined that her life motto is "I play, therefore I am."
 |
We found Rocky at the Berkeley
East Bay Humane Society, which I highly recommend. She was already
box trained and fairly used to being handled by people. She'd been
there for about two weeks waiting for us. I believe they also trained
her to operate in "extra cute mode" when at all possible.
She does a really good job of it so far.

Can you say Too Cute???

Compare Rocky's size now in February of 2002 to her
size when we got her in November 2001!! She was just a handful then,
and she's certainly more than a handful now. She's barely a kitten
any more, although you can't tell by how she plays.
