Some of you may remember that I adopted a kitten last May. He was a wee thing, 8 weeks old and just 2 pounds. I named him Rowdy. Time passed and he grew. Boy, how he grew!
He is one year old today and at last weighing was just a bit over 11 pounds. I know, it’s no big deal, but I wanted to mark the day.
11 pounds! Yikes! Our Yorky, Winston, weighs in at 7 pounds only! Happy birthday, rowdy!
That was several weeks ago. I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s up to 12 now. Hard to get an accurate read while standing on a bathroom scale holding a squirming cat.
A 7 lb dog? You sure that’s a dog? (I’ll bet he’s adorable, though.) Mine’s about 60 lbs.
I’ve got an 11 pounder kitty – you know when he’s jumped on the bed.
Ain’t that the truth!
Happy Birthday Rowdy! It is a big deal…and he is. Looks very cuddle…and like he can do a regal thud thud thud stomp down the hall
Still get a smile with that sweet “baby” picture
He can be very cuddly, but also very naughty. Either way, he’s definitely a presence!
Yep, the day I brought him home he could have napped in my shoe.
RC Cat was the size of your palm. The grow in size as large as they grow in your heart?
Indeed they do.
Adorable!
Hi, Alina. Is Happy really your middle name? That’s so cool!
Yes, the minute I saw him, I knew I had to have him. It’s a wonder I wasn’t stopped while rushing to the shelter that morning.
Yes, Happy is my middle name. So adorable, awesome you have him now.
Your name makes me smile! Take care of yourself!
Happy birthday to Rowdy! Luke was about that size when he was a year old; heck, he was 9 pounds when I got him at 6-8 months. Give that kitteh skritches from me!
Lots of skritches coming right up!
BTW, I regret the quality of the second photo, but it was a very fast zoom-and-shoot situation. Looks like there wasn’t time for perfect focus.
Happy birthday, Rowdy! Handsome guy!
He asked me to say thank you.
