Introducing Max

As many of you know we had a house with no kitties since Sylvester passed away in November of 09. But boy, have we made up for it. Kurtis wanted an orange, long hair, male tabby and I wanted a fun tabby. I have introduced you all to Trouble … and yes he is really living up to his name. (more on that later) But Kurtis and I are happy to introduce our new fuzzy guy Max.

Max with the first view of my camera. He wasn’t too hip to the big black thing in his face.

Max being distracted by the birds out the window… totally for got about the camera in 2 sec flat.

Max at his best. He had a ton of mats on him when we got him from the shelter.
We ended up cutting them all out so now he looks a bit like a rag-a-muffin but it fits his personality.

Max is not as out going as Trouble and still like to hide when we come home. Isn’t to hip to loud noises, fast movements or big cameras in front of him, but day by day he is getting better and trusts us more. He LOVES Trouble and they have been playing non-stop for the past 3 day’s. Apparently they are training for the kitty olympics and the best time for them to train is 3 a.m. – 6 a.m. I think they are training for the marathon, long jump, wrestling (possibly even sumo wrestling) doubles tennis and all around gymnastics. The bed has been the perfect launching point for the long jump and gymnastics training.

When Max gets a little more used to the camera I will get some pictures of Trouble and him together. You would think they were long lost brothers they way they love, fight and play with each other.

Cheer and enjoy!
