Santa's Helper

Murphy was the only one of my cats who loved this toy, I do not know if it was because he was just a kitten or if it was because he was a boy. But I do know that we had a lot of fun watching him play with this Santa’s cap.

Well done on the challenge win! It’s a lovely image that really showcase the personality of the kitten. I have to ask – is Murphy a Ragdoll? I have a Blue Birman and she has both “gloves” and “gauntlets”. I must say, Murphy is a very handsome little boy here – I’m sure he has fulfilled his early promise!
Marjorie Wallace replied
Hi Rosanne; Yes, little Murphy is a Ragdoll. This photo is nearly a year old, so you can imagine how totally gorgeous, or should I say handsome he is now. I am thrilled about winning the challenge and thank you for your nice comments.

Marjorie Wallace replied 8 days ago
Thank you very much, John. Actually, ragdolls do have Siamese way back in their lineage. He is a Seal mitted Ragdoll and his colours have come in so nicely. His tale has filled out and he is a most handsome boy. I appreciate your nice comments.
