OH MY GOD the beige kitty looks exactly like my kitty!!! and when i got my kitty she had 2 other siblings and one looked just like her… I wonder if this is the mystery kitteehhh… look!!! http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm286/mandiemarlane/whidekitty.jpg
The beige kitty is my boy Rocky (and he’s not happy that I keep calling him Edith!). You’re right … they look like they were separated at birth. He was adopted from an animal rescue group – we think he’s half Siamese and half tabby. He’s also a polydactyl – he has extra toes on his front paws. You can see more pictures of him here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/glendacherry/sets/72157610529399167/
