I've just been enabled for 1 MB Broadband (Yippee!) and my first job has
been to upload
the breeder's and my photos of Claudius to Webshots for your viewing
pleasure :-).
Hot stuff this DSL, I just downloaded a file at a genuine 237KB/Sec
(5.8MB in 25 secs or so).
I seem to be on a nominal 2.2MB, which is great!

Not all the pics are HQ but I expect a kitten fever epidemic to sweep
rpca anyway.

Enjoy!

It sure is! Mama looks a little tired feeding that mob. =o) You weren't
kidding about the KF warning either.  Claudius and his mother and siblings
are ALL beautiful cats!

Two weeks from next Monday, after he's had a few days
to get over his 12-week vaccinations. It isn't easy.........

Great pictures, Gordon. Broadband is great for pictures isn't it, what's
your upload speed? Mine is 288 Kbps which seams slow compared to
download speeds.

Thanks. I blame the subject, it'd be hard to get things badly wrong.
Yes, my uploading's rated at only 288 too which isn't lighting-fast
except compared to the Bad Old Days of dialup - I reckon it works
around 10 times faster which will do for now. I hear SDSL isn't
too far away.....

I forgot to mention, every time I see his name I think of I Claudius and
want to spell it Clavdivs.

:-)   I, too was a fan of Robert Graves in my youth, and later of the TV
adaptation.

Although C's new name is primarily to keep it classical in honour of
dearest
Pericles RB, the possibility of dozens of eyewatering puns around
"claws"
hadn't altogether escaped me :-))

Did you ever see the Muppet version, "Me Claudius"?  ;)

The best part was the opening "credits," as a fuzzy little Muppet
caterpillar inched its way across a mosaic. ;)

I'm afraid I missed it. Sounds great. Shame :-(

I shall have to see how the "real thing" gets on, tho'
I only have tiles, no mosaic.

That's his breeder's post, Snowball's left mine in better nick,
at least at young kitten height. But I think any post dealt with
by the majestic Sammy (bless her, she looks great) has
rather a hard time of it!

Claudius arrives in 2 weeks: I can hardly wait, but still need
to build him a box-tower out of marine-ply crates once our
weather cools down a bit: indoors it's been over 80 (27C)
for a week.

Hahahaha!  It looks like the scratching post is too small for Sammy,
she's falling off all over the place!  Time for a bigger post.
When this happened, we got Vino a bigger post:

Burmese crossed with Chinchillas, then re-bred with Burmese
to get the final mix, make Burmillas if they come out short-haired
or Tiffanies if semi-long. Unless they're certain colours/shading
when they're called "asians" of various types. It's complicated,
and too much for simple little old me.

So basically it's a Burmese with softer, thicker (and often longer)
fur and a touch of laid-back Chinchilla temperament (I hope).
Snowball's ragdoll breed is is half-Chinchilla and half Birman:
perhaps that'll help them get on, though I think the hard playing
to come will do the bonding.

He is a precious little fellow!  Congratulations on the new addition!
No doubt I would catch KF from these pics, but I currently have
Hoolikitten Hubert on my hands.  You need some time to forget all the
spills and crashes before you're susceptible to KF again.   :-)

He arrives in 2 weeks. Breath is bated already. Snowball is still, aged
two-and-four-months, teaching me about the crashes & zoomies etc.
but his needs must perforce prevail over mine, & he needs a playmate.
Or so he tells me.

OMG, those are the best pics.  I want one so bad!!!  Love the milk bar
picture, the mom looks like she's smiling and all the kitties' tails
are sticking straight out.  Adorable :-)
