Boys, Bellies, Backsides

Lovejoy Boys from Above
I thought I'd post an aerial shot of the Lovejoys Boys so you can see the identifying marks on their backsides.

From left to right, it's Neville, Harlan and Nelson.
You can see Harlan has the most orange, Neville the least, and Nelson has a medium amount.

I love their shapes. I'm not exactly sure how kittens grow, but it seems that they grow rounder, then longer, then taller, then rounder again. Right now, they're in a round phase and they look like stubby little bowling pins.

  1. The most adorable boys! They're the most adorable boys! And my heart wants to say, in the usual way, they're the MOST adorable boys!

  10. I think your description of kitten growth patterns is pretty accurate. My 10 month old boy Colby is in the 'taller' phase.

  11. When we got our first cat, Magoo, there was always the telltale sign of the huge belly...

    Then suddenly he would either be longer of taller.

    I swear it would happen over the course of a day. We would leave a little wriggler in the morning and come home to this lankly legged clutz.
