Elsa's age


Last night we had a bit of a shock with Elsa she tried to suckle of Clementine, now since we have had her she has shown all the qualities of a kitten to young to be away from its mum, nuzzling all the time, shreiking when alone or on litter tray, clawing at clothes all the time etc etc, so i am wondering if she really is 9 weeks, she doesnt look/act like it at all she is small and acts like say a 5/6 week old, now there are plenty of pictures around and i have listed her behaviour, what do you think?
the lady we got her from said she was 9 weeks but im not convinced

Difficult to say Luke but the suckling activity is nothing to be relied upon. Claude still suckles Maud now and Clooney suckled Maud too when he came and he was definitely 8 weeks old when we got him.

Re: Elsa's age


oh i see, maybe a picture of her next to something like a bag of sugar would sort of illustrate her size better, maybe she is just a bit slower maturing.....

She may just be a small cat Luke...Maud was a very petite Kitten
