Kiki
Location: Morrisville, North Carolina, USA
My husband Alan and I had recently lost our precious, two-year-old Guinness (aka Guinney Bear) last February to a sudden heart attack. For a while we had thought about adding another kitty to our remaining three-cat family, but holding back. Then we saw this cute little male kitten on our local news station, WRAL-TV, and we made the decision to go and visit “his” rescue shelter in Raleigh, NC, Safe Haven for Cats to meet him and see about adopting him. But when we approached his cage, we both were suddenly attracted to his sister. Her amazing sweet little face and eyes, her instant attraction to Alan and then to me, plus her loving disposition and kittenish charm totally won our hearts, and instead we brought Kiki home with us. Thank God our other kitties seem to love her as well. She can be g entle, yet fierce, competitive, even ferocious, and can outrun and, of course, outplay, both of her big sisters Chimay and Possum, as well as her big brother, Pepper. She is now 11 weeks old, and we are one big happy family!

POUNCE!
Adorable little one!
The markings on her forehead create a heart shape and what is orange on one side of her face is gray on the other.
What a pretty girl Kiki is!
Kiki is adorable – her markings are beautiful! So sorry for the sudden loss of Guinness; perhaps he knew Kiki was waiting for you.
Very glad you are one big happy family!
Funny how that happens! Kiki is too precious. No wonder she managed to steal your hearts!
I am so sorry for your loss of Guinness.
Kiki is just precious! Condolences on losing Guiness; I am sure Kiki will do her sweet and charming kittenish best to help your heart heal
Let’s hear it for the Pet of The Day and Saven Haven! Raleigh is a very pet friendly place.
Kiki is GORGEOUS!!! She reminds me of my sweet Heidi (heidibaby). My condolences to you on losing your baby – they surely do always leave pawprints all over your heart.
Enjoy your little Kiki for many years. . . I love that she is gentle yet fierce!!! Kisses to Kiki!
Kiki sounds like the purrfect addition to your furry family! Hey Kiki with your “It Girl” Kit catitude and kittenish charm you are It…as our Star-kit today at TDK!
Kiki is a Kutie FUZZ
All in the Family FUZZ
Kiki is one spunky little fuzz bucket!
Awwww! Kitty Pie!!! She is a cutie! Looks like a little wild cat! Torbie!! Happy Girl!!
My brown tabby/manx girl, Gaea, behaves exactly like Kiki. She’s my first BT so I’m new to understanding her. Congrats on rescuing Kiki, she a cutie.
What a lucky lil girl!
Cutie-pie Kiki … she is so pretty with her unusual markings. Such a lucky little gal to find a furever home with a ready-made furbaby family! Many very happy years with all your furkids. Hope, too, that Kiki’s little brother found a happy furever home.
I forgot to offer my deepest sympathies for the loss of your sweet Guinney Bear after far too little time with you. I’m so sorry.
Wow…thanks to everyone for all your wonderful comments about Kiki, and also for your many kind condolences for our Guinney Bear. We love all our kitties very much, and a loss takes a terrible toll on all of us. But Kiki has certainly jump-started us on the road to recovery! I’ve been a fan of The Daily Kitten for several years now and I too look forward to every new kitten post. Thanks again…
It is rough to lose a beloved friend, btdt. Guiness loved you as much as you loved him, and he wouldn’t want you to be lonely.
Thank you for taking in Kiki, even though you were going for her brother at first. It’s interesting how they pick us, isn’t it? It’s like they just know. And she’s a prize kitten!
Kiki is looking quite tasty!
yes and she looks delicious too!
yeah kiki is great! I would just eat her up!
Love those “Torby’s”
May you have a long and fun life Kiki! Lots o snuggles!
Sympathies on the loss of your loved Guinness, but I can see how this charmer totally stole your heart. She’s precious.
What a cutie pie Kiki is! I have a North Carolina cat myself and she actually has the best disposition and happy nature of my three cats.
All the best to you.
Kiki seems to be saying “I was waiting for you!”
What a cutie pie face!
