Meet Julius!

This is Julius, our rascally, wonderful kitten. We adopted him on August 25th (my dad's birthday) and brought him home the same day. His first day home, Julius weighed 1.7 pounds and was small enough to fit in one hand... So teeny and cute!



As you can see he's grown a bit since then. Now he tips the scales at a mighty 4 pounds. He was the runt of his litter so he is likely to stay pretty small. Julius was surrendered to Animal Control in Philadelphia with two brothers when they were all just a few weeks old. He was taken in by a wonderful foster mom who cared for him until he was old enough to find a home. We discovered him online through Petfinder, a wonderful resource that helps advertise available pets. Here are the photos from his Petfinder site:
