Our Little Pippin

Hello my friends,

Anyone who knows me knows how much I love cats.  After losing our precious Cheops life hasn't been the same.  So I have been keeping a secret!

We now have a new member of the family, a fawn Ocicat.  He is just the most adorable, handsome kitty!  After going back and forth with names we finally decided on 'Pippin'.  If you are not familiar with the breed it is a cross between a Siamese and an Abyssinian and looks like it stepped right out of the wild!

The rarest and most exotic colors in Ocicats are the 'champagne' colors (blue, fawn, lavender, blue silver, fawn silver and lavender silver).  Pippin's coat is fawn spotted on a pale ivory agouti ground.  His cute nose and paw pads are pink.   

Below are pics from his first photo shoot.


He still had his baby fur in these pictures.  As he matures his spots will be more pronounced.


All paused, and posed ...

     

Pippin celebrating his 4 month old birthday!  He is growing up quickly and is so full of energy.  He is involved in everything I do.  



After a day of running around and playing fetch he is tired ... zzzzz


For now, Pippin is not allowed in my craft room.  There are way too many shiny objects, rolls of ribbon and trinkets. 

Remember, no one owns an Ocicat they own you!

Love your little Pippin.... Wise to keep him out of the sewing room for now, lol... My puppy doesn't go down my stairs cause that is where my cat lives in my sewing room. Max eats everything in site, still... He is cute, loveable but such a trial... Hugs, lJ
