Toby- Brittany & Handy American Curl Kitten |
DOB 3/12/24.
|
Toby is a dark blue boy with enough white on face and toes to say he's a 'blue and white bicolor", but there's so little white on him that I'm going to call him just blue. He's a dark blue though. He's got just a faint amount of white eye liner that makes his eyes pop. The white around the eyes and the white around the mouth gives his a LOT of character. These are just a few of our first photos of Brittany's babies. we took last week. I've just been slow at getting his page started. We will be updating with more pics and a few short videos next week.
Brittany and Handy...
Brittany is a bicolor... frequently called a "calico" although that's not an accepted color designation in either CFA or TICA. She is one of our smaller girls and has always, ALWAYS giving us incredible babies in colors and personality. Brittany absolutely ADORES me and she always teaches that same affection for us to her kids. Babies learn a lot from their moms from the day they are born. Babies will model what they see in their moms. Brittany has always taught her babies to welcome our attention from the first times we start to handle them.

"Handy" is a seal lynx point boy. He is a Grand Champion in CFA. We had so much fun showing him. He was absolutely beautiful and he knew it. The judges loved him, but even more than that, people would stop and ooh and ahhh over him whenever we would have his laying on our grooming stand in from of our benching cage. He would just sit there and pose for them as if to say, "Yes, I'm so pretty. Feel free to admire me." Handy has always had a great personality and he always passes that same sweet temperament on to his kids.

6/4... Each of the kittens have a unique personality. Toby and Tony go at it all day long, but Toby's the one you just want to pick up any time he's around. He's such a lover. Toby likes to be close to us no matter what we're doing. We spent the weekend putting together a new computer desk. All the other cats were off napping, except for Toby who seemed to think he would help us with the screws. I had to take a short video of him playing with the screw because he was so cute. But that's just him. He will try to make just about anything that moves into a source of entertainment.
I have other videos on the different kitten pages with all 3 kittens in them, so please be sure to check out the other pages for more cute videos.
And after a full morning of playtime, it's time to crash. I washed these 2 beds a couple days ago. I put them outside in the sun to dry and then dropped them on the floor at the bottom of the stairs. They are supposed to go upstairs, but every time I look at them, there's a cat on them. This time it was Toby's turn.
5/31... Sometimes when we start playing with the kittens to take pictures, they are so cooperative that nearly every picture I take is cute.... that was not today. The kitties were just starting to snuggle in for their afternoon nap when I decided to try to take new pictures of them. I managed to get a couple short videos to show you. The babies just weren't into it. I'll wait until they've had a good nap and try again. Watch for new stills and videos tomorrow.
5/22... new photos taken today while we were sorting socks. Cats LOVE laundry baskets. If yours haven't shared this fascination with you yet. just leave laundry basket on the floor someplace... empty or full, and just watch. It won't take long before you kitty(s) find it.
5/6... left to right are Tabitha, on the armrest is Tony in back & Celine in front. On the seat is Andre in back, Tony in front & Char on the right.
Left to right. Tabitha, Celine, Tony & Char. On the right is Casper in back and Toby in front.
This one is left to right: Tony, Toby, Tabitha, Char. These kittens are too cute. Tabitha is probably the first to bring into a game which Char running a close 2nd. Then Tony. Mike get more of a kick out of Toby. When Mike catches him in the hallway or in the middle of the room and talks to him, Toby will stand up on his back legs and paw at Mike with his front legs to beg for attention.
4/25... Toby is a blue tabby boy, but except for on his legs, you're really not going to see a lot of tabby markings. His dramatic thick white eye liner combined with the white around his mouth and chin just pops. Toby is everything you could say about a boy kitty. He loves to play and when he's wrestling with another kitten, you'll usually find Toby on top. It's not that he picks on any of the other kittens, he's just the guy that is always game and throws everything he has into the competition.
