This isn't going to work out, he is getting big.

He likes to be held, and sleeps in the bed with me.

Hurricane Ike looks like he will be a big boy.

I wil always remember him playing in the yard when the hurricane winds started coming.

He was a very young kitten then.

He spent the hurricane under the house, so I named him Hurricane Ike.

1. I'd love a picture
:D

We named one of ours Ivan because he seemed to roll in with Hurricane Ivan - wasn't there before the hurricane, was afterwards (with a raging upper respiratory infection, poor baby).

2. I have no idea where kitten Ike came from.
He just blew in with the hurricane.

One day he just walked in to the house and made himself home.

He was very feral at first.

He is orange with a little white on his neck.

4. He lives up to his name,
Ike gives the other animals a bad time, he is a active kitten.

He can tear up a roll of paper towels in no time.

5. Riff Raff sounds like my kind of cat.
I LOVE a cat with a sense of humor and a penchant for the art of "ambush attacks." I love it when a cat wiggles their butts just before pouncing. I'm such a sucker.

10. Hi Texanwitch! Ike sounds like
a sweetie! :loveya:

We had one feral kitty, Rembrandt, who was with us
for eleven years.

Outside, he was a feral.
Inside the house, he became a mellow, loyal house kitteh.

Enjoy your new buddy!

Congrats on the new member of your family,
and thanks for saving him.

:) :toast: :hug:
