Doc also commented on how dense and lovely Wylla's coat has become. Now that she's able to process everything so well, she's getting all those nutrients she needs, and it's really starting to show in her coat. It's so incredibly full and soft now and I never thought I would say this, but it's even floofier than Charlene's! And Charlene is VERY hairy!
Wylla sat on the counter while I paid the bill and scheduled her next visit. We all got a good laugh when we noticed that she now has "cankles". I looked back at some older photos and it this is a fairly recent development. Her little legs used to taper more.
So you can all see her progress, here are a few photos:
From top to bottom and left to right, here she is at four weeks, one year, two years, and almost two and a half years (today).
She looks fantastic! And I think you're right. She does look floofier than Charlene. Wylla dear, don't fret about having "cankles". It's a great look for you! :-)
ReplyDeleteI just knew she took after me- it just took time to notice the resemblance!
ReplyDeleteCankles or no cankles, she is still the most gorgeous kitty ever.
ReplyDeleteShe is beautiful. You can tell her fur is in great shape now - the last picture more closely resembles 4 week old picture.
ReplyDeleteWow! Just shows what your loving care can do for kitties. She should be the poster child for how to live with (and/or defeat) mega-esophagus!
ReplyDeleteShows what a loving home, good food and kitten chow can do for one's Wee Ankles. Looking good, Wylla!
ReplyDeleteShaggy!
ReplyDeleteShe's so beautiful! A girl needs lots of floof as she gets a little more mature!
ReplyDeleteI'm right there with ya, Wylla. As we mature, we tend to get a little floofier and develop cankles. You're my kinda gal!

We all love Wylla so much. She a lucky, beautiful kitty. Thank you for taking such good care of her.
ReplyDeleteSome of the nicest cats (and people) I know have cankles. :) Wylla may not be wee anymore, but she's still gloriously woolly!
ReplyDeleteHer "bib" looks like it's a bit whiter too. She just gets prettier with each year. She's proof of what a good home can do for a kitty (and vise versa).
ReplyDeleteYes, I see it. :-)
ReplyDeleteWylla's first kitten picture was by FAR the cutest, most sqee-worthy kitten pic I have ever seen! She is looking wonderful now, which is a real tribute to you, Laurie. She weighs more than Skootch! Concatulations!
ReplyDeleteShe's a real lady cat now! It's fantastic to see how much she has grown and changed over these past 2.5 years. Her coat is just amazing and seems to most resemble her baby pic and it's amazing floofness now. Even her ear floof appears to have grown more luscious!
ReplyDeleteShe's just so pretty! and getting as healthy as she is pretty now! I think her ankles look floofy and lovely!
ReplyDeleteWylla, at risk of weighing too much? Who thought that day would ever come? She's looking absolutely floof-tastic!
ReplyDeleteWylla, you are a beauty. Cankles are Cat Ankles...which you have 4 of the best.
ReplyDeleteYay, Wylla! You are at a good weight, and your fur looks full and beautiful! You do have four of the best Cat Ankles! I agree with RogueFiccer, you look floof-tastic! Gentle petting and lovies to Wylla and Charlene! xo, xo
ReplyDeleteShe is a beautiful animal!
ReplyDeleteI can't help but grin at the change in her expression from tiny kitten ("MY STARS! WHAT IS THAT?") to grown kitty ("Oh, hey, another picture thingy"). Lovely Wylla.
ReplyDeleteLove from Harry's Mom xo
