Kitten has been named Daphne. Of Apollo and Daphne fame from Bullfinch’s Mythology. She’s a wonderful little cat.  Well-mannered, friendly to feline and human alike.  Outgoing.  Lady is baffled and fascinated by her.  She has supervised run of the kitchen and parlor for much of the day.  Floyd lays down to play with her at her level.  Natasha hisses at her, and she respects that.  Natasha, at twelve, isn’t interested in kitten antics, and she’s not shy about saying so.  At night, she’s in the crate for her protection.

As you can see, she willingly climbs (which may be a challenge).  Floyd (on the left) is playing with her.  Lady (on the right) is looking, well, I’ll generously say she’s looking curious.

We had thought she might be chocolate snowshoe Siamese, but upon reflection, we’re thinking more lilac snowshoe Siamese.  Either way, she’s a pretty kitty.

Monday, she goes for a checkup and second set of kitten shots.  She seems to be fitting in well with everyone.
