Jasmine the kitten and Rufus :)

[Snoof]

Ok, people... Uhhh... Don't hurt me... But I forgot my camera today :oops: Don't worry though, I took loads of pictures yesterday!

Meet Jasmine - whilst stuck in my hair! I know the picture isn't very good, but it's so cute I can't leave it out.

"What the hell is that thing?!"

Rufus, world-weary :lol:

A quick nap between the sofa's backrest and the pillow :smt007

Nothing can sleep quite the way a cat can... As Jasmine's eager to show :-)

"Wha... A kitten, you say?!"

Funnily enough, whenever Sweep tries this pose, he ends up stretching comfortably and digging his claws into himself :roll: Outdone by a nine-week-old!

"I can't find my way in!"

"I may just have to stop lying down for this... Grumble!"

She's as obsessed with my skirt as my son is :roll: :lol:

"This tie-dye couch must die!" - She has a violent approach to interior decorating :lol:

"Indeed, I may have to move, and... Wait, what were we talking about? Feed me! :-D"

"I'm helping, right?"

I'm glad this isn't my laptop - wouldn't want any of my lot getting that idea, given they're all massively bigger than Jasmine :lol:

Jasmine is a lovely kitten, very outgoing and busy but she can also have her times when she splats (comfortably, near the closest human). Right before she crawled onto the keyboard (and lay down :smt007) she walked up my chest and gave my chin headbumps whilst purring :smt049
I introduced her to Rufus yesterday, and they were perfectly fine and happily sniffing each other (although when I picked her up, Rufus hissed at her, but she was going somewhere she shouldn't've been...). All her owners really ought to worry about is her violent obsession with toes :lol:

[Mags]

They are gorgeous kitties Snoof........I bet you were in your element!!:lol:

[dinahsmum]

poor you - what a time you are having! :roll:

[SillyTilly]

awww they're lovely. Both my kittens LOVE my laptop - it's all warm and snuggly to snooze on!

The only sad thing is that Rufus has free reign, whereas Jasmine has to stay in the lounge (unless supervised) - so I'm not seeing as much of Rufus as I'd like to. Luckily I was instructed to go find him and feed him treats/pet him to make sure he knows he's still loved, though ;)

"Spoil that cat, Snoof!" "You don't pay me enough for this!" :lol:

Purrsonally, I think she's giggling at Rufus' face in the photo above this one. :-)

As for forgetting your camera :shock: It's not a first time offence... Maybe one of us should come with you next time to supervise? :-D
They look lovely both of them! Hope they force you to cat-sit again. :-)

:lol: I'm always so impressed by how altruistic your intentions are, Hreow... ;)

[Fran]

Absolutely gorgeous kitties!!! What a really difficult couple of days it has been for you :roll: :-D

[Hreow]

I is a pillor of moral something-or-other. Or was that pillo.. :lol:
One-track mind. It's not clever enough to keep more. : /

[Donna]

Just love that cute kitten!!

[Sweet]

hmmmmm have I missed a thread?

Snoof - more kitties????

Fill me in :) x

[Snoof]

They're my friend's cats, Sweet. I've been babysitting last night and all of today because their person's housemates went away yesterday and won't be back till tomorrow - and he didn't want Jasmine to be all alone right away for long periods of time (he's working 9.00 till 23.00 today, with a break in the afternoon).

Very hard work, obviously ;)

[MrsH]

A tough job Snoof but somebody had to do it! Bet you had to have your arm twisted!

[Snoof]

I've been having so much fun, but I'm also somewhat glad Ninja brought home his own (grown) posse rather than me going through kittens... She's a right handful, and she reminded me of the strange "ATTACK THINGS! Ok, now eat something... then ATTACK THINGS THAT ARE ALIVE! Now naptime... ATTACK MORE THINGS!" phases kittens go through :lol:

That said, Sweep is very playful, but it's mostly nice... Like when there's a huge moth in the lounge and Sweep comes in to eat it for me :-D

[Hreow]

Rough muscle and knight in shining armour, then. :-) Well white fur, at least. :grin:
It is much nicer with grown cats, if they stay playful and they've been taught manners. Much fewer bite and claw-marks.

[LMC]

Adorable kitten, but I have taken quite a shine to Rufus! - what a goodlooking chap

[Snoof]

LMC, Rufus is a darling. He's very shy of people he doesn't know, especially if they're tall and/or large (or basically take up a lot of space, sometimes merely vocally speaking), but once he knows you he'll purr at the drop of a hat :smt049

He really is a stunning chap (although of course, for a photo shoot he simply had to have some crud stuck to his nose :roll:), and once he knows you he gets extremely talkative, too :-)

I have done a photo thread about him before - you can find it here (http://www.catpages.co.uk/talkcats/showthread.php?t=5274&highlight=rufus) if you like :-D

[dandysmom]

I'd take that cat-sitting job any day! Jasmine is a little darling; Rufus is a real stunner! Really enjoyed the pics...
