"Victor"... |
Victor's full registered name is Curl Essence In the Light of His Victory. We named him that to be consistent with his father's name which is Curlniques In Light of His Grace. We call dad "Lovebug", but we co-own Lovebug with Grace Ruga (founder of the breed) and Grace gave him his registered name.

Victor was born on 6/26. We haven't posted updated photos of him because we were planning to keep him to show him next year. He is available for breed, show or family pet. We took him to one show with Bellabee and Kevin. He competed with Kevin in kitten class.

Victor had been stretched out snoozing for several hours when I decided to take these pictures of him. You can see the progression of him waking up when he heard the click on my phone as I took the first photos. Pic #1- he picks up his head to see what's going on. pic #2- his eyes are open then pic #3 - he's fully awake watching me.
Pic #1 - just waking up to see what's going on

Pic #3 - he's awake but hasn't decided this is worth him getting up yet.
|
Pic #4 - fully awake but still waiting to see what I'm up to. In the next photo, he's finally decided this needs more investigation.
|
|
Pic #5 - I decided to give him a quick brush down to smooth his coat and fluff the tail.

He does this little "prairie dog" thing where he paws the air to beg for more attention or food. It's soo cute!

I tried to catch the prairie dog beg in the videos below, but I was by myself taking these pictures and videos and I couldn't keep him far enough away from me to get much of a video. Once I woke him up to pet him, he wanted more and more and more. Vic is SUCH A COOL CAT! And check out those ears! They are textbook.

Kevin beat him, but mainly because Kevin was more mature. It's unusual for the younger kittens to beat a more mature kitten assuming they both meet the standard. Kevin has more coat, but Victor has the better ears. Victor is a really fun kitty. He LOVES to play and I can't imagine him not getting along with any other cats in the house... or people, for that matter. He's just a happy go lucky, loves everyone, plays with all the other cats type of guy.
