I sure have grown a lot in my first year. Here's a look back:
Here I am as a little baby kitten, nursing with my littermates:
Here I am with my brother, only a couple of days old. Weren't we cute?
Here I am at 8 weeks old. Look at those ears!
My first day in my Forever Home, Dec. 22, 2007. I was 14 weeks old:
Here are Dragonheart and I after I'd been in my Forever Home for a week. We quickly became best friends and inseperable. Look how tiny I am, compared to Dragonheart! We are now about the same size, although I outweigh him, because I have a stockier build.
And here I am today, one year old!
Thank you for stopping by to celebrate my first birthday with me!
