I was going to leave it a while before looking around for another cat but whilst surfing around looking to see what cat rescue places were in and around Perth I came across this pair:

The black one is 'Buzz' (the lad) and the champagne one is [ahem, cough] 'Blossom' (the girl). These were the names given to them by the rescue folks and I haven't thought of a new one for Blossom yet, Buzz will probably keep his name as he certainly lives up to it. But Blossom....hmmm....

Buzz is the spitting image of my old flatmate's cat and 'Blossom' is the same colour as Kira was (blondy champagne). They were just too hard to resist.

They're 7 weeks old and are tiny furry powerhouses of boundless energy and adventure. I've never had kittens before, both Kira and Sam (childhood cat) were way past the kitten stage when I got them. Kittens it appears have to be watched like a hawk otherwise everything is up for grabs to be pulled (anything not nailed down - cd cases for example), chewed (ooh cables, bouncy and chewy), sat on (ooh there's a foot), sat in (whoa...a plastic bag) and whatever else enters their tiny cat brains. They're a real joy to watch and look after and I'm really glad I didn't hang back.

Anyway here's some more gratuitous pussy shots, normal service will be resumed soon:
