If they all stayed as cute as that little guy, I might just want a kitten, but they turn into cats. :)

Persians can be pretty laid back depending on how you raise them

Very true - I actually took my Persian boy cat into the shower with me once after he was sick. Rinsed him off, shampooed him, rinsed again, wrapped him in a towel like a baby and sat him on the floor while I showered myself. When I was done, he was just sitting there quietly in his towel, looking at me. He is an odd kitty though - very passive.

You are SO right. Nobody comes out of a catbath without bleeding arms and hands, scars for life, screaming and tears . . and for this kitten to be cast as the victim . . and that’s the way he planned it all along. He will end up having saucers of warm organic milk every night and then lie in the woman’s favorite chair until bedtime. Life as the woman has known it has come to an end.
