London Cat

Mithril (named after the elvish metal in the movie ‘Lord of the Rings’) is a Somali cat that has taken over our hearts.

Proud mommy cat
Second nipple from the left
Where are my ears?
Already pulling on our heart strings
Stoutgat!
A heart melting moment
The bed arrives
A pet shop's worth of toys
All ready to leave the breeder after 12 weeks
Pushing the boundaries maybe?
Home is set up
Daddy's little furball
Are we crossed with a squirrel?
Thank goodness he grew out of the curtain climbing phase
Johann losing a game of hide and seek
Spoilt rotten!
Show material
He fetches and carries balls just like a dog
On the train to Milton Keynes to stay with his cousins
Mithril's first grass experience
Notice how long the lead is
Tasty butterflies
Mithril's cousins, BK and GK
We threw a party to celebrate Mithril's first birthday
I love you so much!!
All partyed out!
The day before Mithril's first cat show we decided he needed a bath
He ain't going to win any show looking like that :-)
That's what I think of you lot
Let me out of this white hell
Some lurve from mommy
Daddy's magic touch
Grooming time before the judging
He felt a lot safer hiding from everyone
The competition!
Judging
We are not going to win any rosettes with this behaviour Mr
The result
Tears of joy after his first rosette
More poking and prodding
The judge wrote an essay once he had finished judging Mithril
All the kitties
Johann talking to the competition
And still some more judging
Pizza break for Cara & Johann
