Minion
Location: Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
Minion is about three months old in this picture. Our tabby girl Razmataz had five kittens this past spring and couldn’t quite feed this guy enough, so he quickly learned to come crying to us for supplement when he was hungry. His brothers and sisters were adopted out to friends of ours but my husband and I couldn’t bare to part with this little guy. His momma is half Siamese with the Siamese attitude (which we love in her!), but this little guy has the sweetest temperament and is the gentlest kitten I’ve seen. He’s almost five months old now and he still makes his momma chase away anything he thinks is scary, but we love him to bits and he and his momma are the bestest of friends!

POUNCE!!!!!!!!
Love this little guy!
Hi, kitty!
First Pounce!!!
AWWW!!! Looks like my baby!!!!
Pounce!!!!Minon is beautiful
He has such a sweet face. Lovely little Minon!
A sweet quarter-meezer.
what a sweet baby!! I love his little face!! He is gorgeous!
good for you Dallas…nice pounce! Minion is a cute kitty He looks just like my Chessie did at that age. Chessie is 5 1/2 now, I think
I do hope that Minion and his humans have a long and happy life together.
Chessie–I’ve never forgiven the generic-sounding CSX for taking Chessie off of their rail cars (grrrr). That used to be the highlight of our road trips, to see that sleeping kitten logo. I even had a latch-hook rug of little Chessie (named for the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad, which became the antiseptic CSX when it merged with Southern Railroad).
I wonder whatever happened to that rug….
Aw, so cute. Come here Minion, I will snuggle you and keep you safe!
Smooch!
He is a handsome fellow! Sweet little tiger.
Be still my heart - I do love the gray striped kitties and he is SOOOO cute. I love the story about him and his mommy cat - what a great pair and you are lucky to have them.
What a handsome kitten in a lovely pose!
BTW, this will probably be my last comment on TDK. Chronic problems with password and logging in, it gets very annoying and time-consuming to try to sort it out, so if my next attempt doesn’t recognize my “current” password, that’s the end for me. But I’ll always be visiting the kittens!
Hi JG - hope you get the password thing straightened out. I had some trouble too and when I checked the ‘remember me’ box, it’s been ok ever since. Good luck - at least you still get to gaze and the day’s kitten.
It normally doesn’t work for me, that’s why the trouble. Well, we’ll see … sometimes it’s OK for a couple of days, then goes back to being problematical again.

JerseyGirl, I have requested the KittenMaster try to help you with your log in problem…All love your comments and want you to stay!!
Aww, what a handsome little momma’s boy
His story is adorable, who could blame you for keeping him for yourself.
Minion is a cool name and a cute kitten. Speaking of cute kittens, ama58873, Mogley is beautiful! So exotic looking, with those huge eyes. Lovely photos of him.
Minion is simply BEAUTIFUL! I wanna hug him, and play with him. So cool!
I wanna see momma too!!! i bet they make a beautiful pair! hehehe… he’s soooo cute. A right little heart breaker!
Absolutely one of the BEST kitty names, and the most accurate in a long time!
Way to go, buzz…keep those humans happy!
What long legs you have Minion. In my opinion, you are just purrrfect!!!
I was thinking the same thing. What long legs !! Minion is very handsome!!
The stripey cats are everywhere this week! Minion is another gorgeous little stripey and I love his scratching tower, right next to the window. Maybe he could have some of us over to play?
Minion is one great-looking guy! They may not have that “hey baby, check me out” attitude that orange tabbies have, but I think brown tabbies are as sweet and good-natured as they come. Congrats to Minion and his Mom!
Just about all my cats were like this one and every single one was a lush for lovin’s. He is so handsome!!!!
Aw, Minion and Razmataz are BFF.
Every brown or grey tabby I’ve ever had also had a deep soul connection with me. It’s so remarkable and continues to grow for their entire lives.
Awwwww. Such a pretty kitty.
Awwwwwwww. Cute story about Minion and his mom.
Awwwwwwwwwwwww.
Oh Minion is sooooo cute! It so sweet having mama and baby together. You are so lucky to have them and Minion is lucky to have you too!
pretty leggy tabby sweetie
please send a cuddle to his stripey-ness from me
Gorgeous!
Edmonton–home to the largest shopping mall in the Americas. *sigh*
I’m jealous.
Visited there in 2000, loved it and still am trying to finnagle a way back.
What a sweet, sweet face. Lots of kisses to you.
What a very superior cat to be called “Minion”
Hi Minion! You remind me of my ‘Needles’ that I had back in the early 80’s, he was a lover but not always as gentle as you are! Hence his name!!!
Awwww, it’s stripey cuteness overload!

Smooch

Never End
Hello little mama’s boy, Minion! That is one long-legged little boy. I am glad that Mama got to keep one of her babies. Happy life to them both.
Didn’t we have another kitten named Minion not too long ago? I remember someone explaining about the Jewish minion being a group of ten men gathered for prayer. Anyhow, this little guy is adorable.
“No, you are MY minion!” FUZZ
Stay at home FUZZ
sooooooo ADORABLE!
Awwww gotta have love for the tabbies
Sheba’s Mom, I think you’re thinking of a minyan, a group of ten gathered for prayer. The count of ten adult (over the age of 13) males is required for Jewish public worship.
A minion can be defined as a favorite, an idol, or something delicate or pretty (Webster’s Third International Dictionary). Fortunately, this kitty is delicate and/or pretty and most certainly must be a favorite.
