Vegas
Location: Chicago, Illinois, USA
This is Vegas when he was just 4½ weeks old and weighed 6oz. He was abandon by his mother but not before she managed to put him and a brother kitten in basement laundry room of an apartment building through a crack in the wall. He was named Vegas upon my departure to Sin City. No other name seemed to fit at the time and surprisingly his personality lives up to the reputation of the Old Mobster Las Vegas. As a kitten he showed no fear to other Alpha cats out weighing him by 10lbs. He manages to terrify dogs as big as a Husky. He’s my little gangster through and through.

Oh my!
Such an animated kitten…love him!
Size doesn’t matter when it comes to a cat’s bravery does it?
Vegas may be a handsome tough guy on the outside but I suspect he’s a marshmallow on the inside.
He may look scary but I’ll bet he cuddles great.
What a cutie pie little Vegas is! This picture made me smile, he looks like a lot of fun!
Dear Vegas, you are a handsome young devil in your black velvet!!!
Hey, Vegas, come on out to Bolingbrook and play with my crew. They would love you. Enjoy this character for a long time.
Lalala Viva little Vegas!!! With those qualities you deserve our shiny star today as TDK Star of the Day!
Not only were Vegas mobsters tough they were also known for being sauve and debonair!!
Vegas you certainly fit your name!!
Vegas will make a great Halloween cat come October. He has his “I’m a big scary cat” look down to perfection
Tell it to the Foot!
Oops! meant to say “Tell it to the Paw!”
How adorable is this pose? I wanna kiss Vegas on his little charcoal nose! MMMMMWAH!
Hello Vegas! Cute kitty!! Looks like he’s about to attack.
Yes, and attacking from lying on his back — a very difficult move. :>
Lovely little Vegas.
I’ve read that ‘bottoms’ is the preferred position as they can rip the other’s stomach with hind legs….so he’s a smart one… viva los Vegas!
Gotcha- Your little wild man is precious!
Well Vegas is just adorable. What a great picture, he seems to be very photogenic also.
Oh My Goodness! It doesn’t get much more adorable than that. What a little cutie pie! Love the pose. It reminds me of that kitten on Youtube that everyone was watching. Enjoy a long and happy life together.
Remember to spay and neuter so that there will be no more homeless pets.
Weeeeeeeeee! GREAT PHOTO!! Loving Vegas!
I don’t know, Vegas – you sort of look like you’re in the “I surrender” mode there! But you are so handsome!!! Of course, I have a serious weakness for black kitties!
He’s in the “I’m going to attack your hand” position!
He looks like he’s dancing, with the Jazz Hands and high-kicking foot!
Vegas, you are a handsome black kitten, and you look like you’ve got a great sense of humor as well as being a tough guy!
Grrr-rowrra-purr! That translates to “I’m fierce and scary til you cuddle me!”
Ha ha,you cute lil stinker,I bet your a little rascal and a cute one at that. I love you. I hope you have many healthy happy years ahead of you,its so great you were adopted and the name vegas is cute for this lil guy.
what a gorgeous little shadow kitty, with sweet feet to boot. Mommy kitties seem to know sometimes just where to leave their little ones …I hope his bro found a home, too! may you enjoy many more feline offers you can’t refuse…
As the adage goes “Everything that happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas”… I hope that you and you’re cute little tuffy Vegas enjoy splendidly amusing years together.
I love Vegas! Such a playful and proud little guy!
Gangster boy Vegas is so cool looking! This little guy rocks!
Gotta love to foot in the face!
“Kiss my paw”. I smiled so big when I first saw Vegas. He is actually smiling. I just want to pick him up and cuddle with him.
I think Vegas looks like a cartoon cat. Cartoon cats make people laugh. Ha …….
Haha, Vegas is so excellent!
Little Vegas is showing us his Kung Fu moves too. Don’t cross him, or you’ll be found face down in the bathtub or something!! He’s a cutie!
What a little sweetie! I love how much personality the little guy has.
he is so so so cute
