Luigi and the Bean

We had a little visitor the other night, Mr Luigi Fortunato! When we came home with him, Butterbean was waiting in the window. I unzipped the carrier, and out he pounced. Charlene jumped off the window ledge and onto the floor, right next to the boy. He purred and purred and circled around her.

Charlene rarely plays favorites with the kittens, but of all the Fortunato kittens, Luigi was probably the one who received the most attention from Charlene. Mostly, because he was the one most willing to receive.

They spent the evening bouncing around the house. They chased each other up the stairs and down the stairs again and again. There was a lot of wresting on the living room rug, and of course, lots of pinning and licking. It was a joyous reunion.

Luigie has grown so much since he left our nest. He's very lanky and his tail is SUPER long. His baby face is looking a little pointier and his whiskers are starting to darken. Though his looks are shifting, what remains the same is his sweet little demeanor. He purred almost the whole time he was here.
