So far we've taken to calling him R2D3 (thanks Dad), AreToo, Arthur, Artemis, Martie, Monster, and BabyCat....Some of these nicknames may not stick, and some (like R2D3) I think he'll be saddled with for life...
He is little and cute and has a fat round belly! His birthday is May 7th, so he is young to be leaving his Mama, but she was Finished with Artie and his 3 brothers and refused to nurse anymore or let them cuddle against her, so we were asked to bring him home early yesterday.
He's bonded very well to Retardo--they sleep together, and he likes the sound of Retardo's voice. Retardo has never been around little kittens, so the photos are getting plentiful. MadelineRotten has not bonded with him yet. We're trying to limit exposure until she gets over needing to hiss at him all the time, but we want her to get used to him and accept him as part of her family. So far nothing too drastic has happened between her and Artie, though I'm glad that we refreshed Rotten's clawcovers on Sunday before he came home.
