Curl Essence Robin-Brittany/Opie Red Silver boy...
Born 1/27, Robin is a darker red boy with silver undercoat. He is scheduled to be neutered on 4/28. He can go to his new home right after that. Both of Brittany's red boys (Robin and Jasper) have white faces, but Robin's body coat is darker than Jasper and the white face on Jasper's face is pronounced. But other than those few small details, these boys are almost identical... at least right now. That will change as they mature.
Brittany is a "calico". The CFA and TICA color description is "silver tabby and white"... but for intents and purposes, this is commonly just called a calico.
Brittany is a smaller girl. Click on any photo to enlarge it.

Opie is by far the smallest boy we have. He is a chocolate smoke. The "smoke" describes the lighter chocolate ruff around his neck and on his legs and tummy. Opie has consistently given us sweet babies with nice "curl features", like nicely curled ears, large walnut eyes, and soft coat.

New photos and videos taken 3/3.
We brought Robin and Chase out together for these photos and videos. There is another video of these 2 of Chase's page. Robin was the first to decide to play with this little mouse toy. Chase was more interested in inspecting his new environment, but when he noticed how interested Robin was in this toy, he decided to join into the game. Robin is getting prettier and prettier all the time. If we were looking for another boy to show, he would be the one. He's got gorgeous big eyes and a striking bright red coat. It took him little to no time to decide to play with the toy which is also a good indicating that he's going to adjust to his new home easily.

This video is of Robin and Chase. I called this little cream point "Star" in this video because Mike wanted to name him "Rising Star". Star just doesn't seem to fit. Sometimes we name a cat and then when we start interacting with the kitten, the name just doesn't seem to fit. I'm renaming him Chase. He's more of a Chase than a Star. I also called this boy Jasper when I was shooting the video. I had Jasper on the brain because I still have to bring Jasper out for new photos.
Updated pics at 4 wks of age... |
Robin is 4 wks old in these photos. I have several pictures with the 2 boys side by side. Robin is a little darker than Jasper... and a little bigger (for now).

Brittany's babies are just 2 weeks old in the pictures below. Their eyes are open and they're starting to crawl all over inside this little 'home".

Check out the little white face on the red boy in the back. That contrast of which around the eyes and checks against the red is going to be really pretty. Since he's already showing this much silver, I suspect he will have a nice silver undercoat when he's older.
The little red silver boy with the white face in the back is SOLD.

The 2 color points are starting to show slightly different colors. The darker one in front is the girl. The brighter white one behind her is the boy.
All the kittens were wandering all over when I put this new bed inside their little "house". The black and white gave me the best face shots. At this age, it's hard to get them to look at the camera. I had just cleaned the cage and added new food for mom which is the only reason Brittany isn't hogging the camera.
The little red silver boy with the white face in the front is SOLD.
