Ragdoll Cat Forums

I posted in the chat area - poor baby has a runny noise and wasn't feeling the greatest Saturday. I didn't take many photos (and realized later it wasn't smart at all for me to let him interact with Newman after I realized he wasn't 100% healthy)

He still doesn't have a name! I just don't like Redford after all. I hope I can settle on something today or tomorrow. He's sweet and wonderful and feeling better now that we went to the vet yesterday. He seems very small to me - 3 lbs 8 oz at 16 weeks but the vet says he is fine.

Newman is much, much bigger (and fluffier). You can sort of see it here:



Like how his 1 paw covers most of his brother's head?



I stopped with the photos pretty quickly once I realized the poor baby wasn't feeling great. His face is so sweet (but his nose is a little dirty from all the sneezing and congestion):



He seems to be doing better today (still sneezing, but more energy). I'll work on his name and better pictures! I just adore his sweet little self.

He is so cute! Hope he is feeling better soon too.

Thanks! He does seem better - very "perky" today (though still sneezing some)

It still bothers me a little bit that he is so much smaller than Newman - but the vet says he's fine for his age.

He is very cute and I love the face shot!! I'm glad he is feeling better today.

He is a cute boy, they both are. The size difference is amazing for two kittens from the same litter, maybe Newman's just a very big boy if Mr Yettobenamed is a healthy size.

As for his dirty nose, he will proberly always get a dirty nose. As do all cats, its just more noticable with the pink noses of a bicolour. When we asked our breeder if Jasper's nose being dirty all the time was normal we were told it was normal with all the bicolours. So we are constantly cleaning out his nose because he is a lazy big boy and hardly ever does!

Hope your bicolour boy is cured of the sniffles soon

They are both so pretty, I hope he is feeling much better!

I agree with Cloe, Dexter's nose looks dirty a lot too. I asked the vet and he says it's just because he's a kitten and sniffing around at everything all the time that happens. And it's noticeable because of the white fur and pink nose. He is never sniffly or sneezy though.

So very cute. He is about the size Mykah was. Just love him and get him a name. Hey we all need a name. The pictures are simply adorable and send more real soon.

What a cute little guy -- I'm amazed by the difference in the size of two from the same litter too. Better watch out though, he'll end up being even bigger than Newman in the long run!! LOL How wonderful that they are already getting along together. At least you're aren't having problems with the introduction phase of it all and that takes a bunch of stress off of you!!

i am forever cleaning titans nose too.
try not to get too over paranoid about the sneezing titan did it for the first few months and we continually took him to the vet and the vet insisted he a healthy big boy. and he might just be adjusting or something i dont know. but titan too did sneeze alot and now he never/hardly ever does.
