7. Sam and Beau are the first of about 10 kittens I took in last year...

Kept four...he was good with all of them...I kept them apart the first couple nights...Sam was really sick for a bit, but when introduced it was love at first sight...all he had was India, since I lost both melanie and Scarlet a few months earlier, and I think he was lonely...they all loved him...Sam, though, I think is his favorite.

Also, every single kitten I rescued was female...that probably helps with his acceptance...no one going to challenge him.

Beau has turned out to be pretty big for a female... joeybee12 Apr 2014 #11

I have to wonder if the weight difference is due to 10 extra days of poor & or limited nutrition siligut Apr 2014 #37

Found them both in an area I feed in...Sam was very sick...scary... joeybee12 Apr 2014 #39
