Happy 1st Birthday Prince!

I got Prince in October last year, he was 8 weeks old and in a tiny pet shop down the road from me, owned by an old lady, sat in a teeny cage with 2 other kitties. The other two kittens were fast asleep but as soon as I walked in Prince jumped up, crawling all over the cage desperate to get out and as I put my hand in the cage he clambered up onto it and perched there crying his little head off.

Me and Ross decided we couldn't get a kitten, we had just moved into a new house (that doesn't allow pets) but as soon as we got back home and sat on the sofa we both looked at each other with sad faces and decided we just couldn't leave him alone there in that tiny metal cage!

We named him Prince after our favourite musician, we gave him a purple velvet collar with THE Prince symbol hanging from it and his sassy little nature definitely lives upto his name. Ross even bought him a replicate Prince guitar big enough for him to hold (see below for the ridiculous picture).

It was love, he knew I was his Mummy and still does, he is like my little shadow! Every morning his smudges his head all over mine to get me up, he sits on my lap for afternoon cuddles when I get home from work and sleeps on a bunch of blankets on my floor next to my side of the bed.

So here are pictures of my baby boy Prince on his 1st birthday. Starting at day one onto the latest pic of him:

Ain't he handsome?!

Sorry for the picture heavy post but I couldn't narrow down my faves!
Hope you have a great weekend!

Meet Prince - WARNING: Kitten Picture-Heavy Post!

As I said in my last post after posting a picture of my kitty playing in the snow, I would do a little introduction to him.

In October one of my housemates and me were in a pet-shop and met this adorable little kitten who was climbing the cage and chirping like crazy for our attention. It was instant love! We took him home and it's been madness ever since.

We decided to name him Prince (after the one and only) as we are massive fans and bought him a very Prince-esque collar. It is purple velvet with a silver glitter stripe and hanging off it is the 'Prince' symbol (which I also got tattooed last year on my ankle after an impromptu night watching Purple Rain and drinking Rose wine).

Meet Prince!

The first day we got him aged 8 weeks:

Growing up fast:

Notice his Prince collar?

He is so full of character and has the most beautiful markings, I literally have no idea what breed (if any) he is a cross with but he chirps instead of meows, is super long and has a really long tail, he has a leopard print belly and also jumps higher and further than any cat I've ever seen!

Any cat experts out there have any hint as to what exactly Prince is?!
It takes alot of energy looking after this one but I adore him :)

Sorry for the kitty heavy post! Hope your week is going swell so far.

When The Snow Hits.

As it's very apparent, most of the UK was hit by blizzards this Friday, and South-Wales was put in the 'red zone' which mean't we were getting alot coming our way! My boyfriend's family live in the Valleys where we were visiting when the snow hit and it ended up being one of the worst hit areas. 

I LOVE snow so this only meant adventure to me, off we went three separate times during the day for hours of snow fun: 

My favourite thing to do was shake the branches and pour snow all over myself and watch as the branch shot back up into the air after being weighed down by the thick snow.

Worlds worst attempt at a snow man.

When I finally managed to drive back to Cardiff I couldn't wait to see my little kitty Prince!

We got Prince in October and he is now 5 months old, I will be doing a little post on him next with kitten and now big kitty pictures :)

Prince with his lead on experiencing snow for the first time! He was super cold but didn't want to go indoors. 

Were you hit by heavy snow where you live? I know it's a total nightmare but it's so pretty before everything turns to ice and gross slush.

I hope you are having a good weekend!
