Looks like my Cleo when my son rocked up with a little black kitten and asked 'Do you wan't her Mum? She is the last of the litter?  My reply was 'I don't like cats'...MMMmmmmm I took her and a week later was asking if they had another one to keep her company

Funnily enough, although 'she was the last of the litter' there was another one (ever been had?) So we took her brother and called him Riffraff..

That was the beginning of me becoming the cat woman of our road...

You came a long way from not liking cats to becoming the cat woman of your road @Cleoriff ... well done little Cleo and Riffraff for converting you so radically!

@EmilieT

This was Riffraff. Long gone now, though when we got him as a kitten my other half said, God he's ugly. he's the sort of cat kids would throw stones at'

Turned out to be one of the best of them all

Ugly?? I think Riffraff looks adorable @Cleoriff, very fluffy  

[Cleoriff]

@EmilieT

When he was a kitten though he did look weird. The black slash on his mouth was too big for his little face..so he looked like an ugly clown. He sort of grew into his face

[EmilieT]

Oh I can totally picture that @Cleoriff - Good he grew into it, it would have been ... interesting if he hadn't

What a lovely cat Rifraff ... he looks big ... & such a beautiful smile on his face 

[Cleoriff]

He was a beautiful boy @Anonymous

He was my 2nd cat. Cleo's brother. Though she stayed tiny...he grew to 6kg.

Until he became ill then his weight dropped.

When we got the other 4 after him, he was kind to them all (whereas Cleo just snarled if they came close)
