Hello, I just got a kitten last night. He is 8 weeks old and my fiance and I have named him Gibson, or "Gibby" for short. He is full of hyper energy and is starting to get used to our Basset Hound. Our biggest problem is that the Basset Hound has an obsession with licking Gibby. Gibby just lays there and doesn't seem to mind but he is a slobbery mess after his "bath". HAHA. Here are some pictures of Gibby.

He has stolen my heart already too. Poor Gibs has his first vet appointment in about 30 minutes. I called to get him an appointment because it usually takes a week or so to get in but they had an open spot this afternoon so we will be off to the vet in a half hour.

The vet says Gibby is a healthy little kitten. The only "negative" thing he had to report is that Gibby is a little underweight, which I already suspected because he is a tad bit on the lean side. Nothing a little extra loving can't fix though.

Haha, If you can talk my fiance into letting me have him I will take him. LOL! I was lucky he FINALLY agreed to let me get Gibby.

*squeal* how cute! Gibby was a nickname for my cat at my parents house. Pronounced with a strong G sound or more of a J sound. I had a cat at my parents house that I named Ghibli. We called him Mr.Ghibs when he was in trouble or Gibby for short but the G is pronounced with more of a J sound.

Ha! Where have we heard this before? This is the way it always starts with the anti-cat people


Gibby's too cute! Not that I'm partial to b/w cats or anything


Welcome!
