Rawrz & Nom

Rawrz:


Rawrz is my sweetest boy for sure, despite his name. He's very good at cuddling - the only drawback is that it has to be when he wants, not when I want. He likes to give kisses and pokey paws ("kneading"). He only has one eye because when he was a kitten a fly larvae decided to nest inside his eye and it had to be removed. The tip of his tail is also bent, which is a defect I've seen on other litters of the same/similar parents (they're a bit inbred sadly).

Nom:


Nom is a little bugger, but beyond cute, and he knows it... He has his moments of being super sweet too and can be quite clingy (though he's growing out of that thankfully). He likes to talk if I'm ignoring him and sometimes when I'm not. He nearly died when he was a kitten due to a respiratory infection making him unwilling to eat or drink, all he wanted to do was cuddle. He's a bit picky on where I can touch him, so I wonder if he has some damage I can't see due to how ill he was. He's noticeably smaller than Rawrz and built more like his mom while Rawrz is built more like dad. He has such soft fur and barely sheds. It's like hugging a stuffed animal when I cuddle him, no joke.

Cute! They are lucky to have you.

Thanks for sharing a picture of your fur babies and their stories. Very cute names too.

Beautiful cats! Do you know, a bend near the tip of the tail is common for Siamese cats? It's very possible that Rawrz has some Siamese genetics.

They are both adorable!! How can you tell which is which? They look identical to me!

The pictures are a bit misleading I guess. Rawrz has one eye (he's missing the right one), a bent tail, is bigger, is quite a bit lighter in color and not as soft of fur. They also have very different personalities and ways of approaching me, so often I can guess which one is coming even in the dark without touching them just based on seeing their movement and feeling where they are at.
