Introducing Max


This is Max, who came to live with us this morning. He likes: meowing, running up and down the length of the apartment, hiding under the bed when his plaintive mewls are not consistently replied to, and sitting under a blanket on the couch while listening to Joanna Newsom. She gave an absolutely brilliant performance supporting Neko Case at McCarren Park Pool last night, but Max deserves a post all his own, so she'll have to wait. Suffice to say that we considered calling him "Mewsom" in her honour, but Max was already his name and it suits him. And, as you can see from the last photo here, Max also thinks it's about time I got around to doing the Library Thing.

Heavens, how very, very cute he is. And how tiny! I think my own gargantuan feline is about six times his size.

well, he's only 10 weeks old, so give him time and he'll be a veritable ju-ju. Mind you, he'll have to start eating for that to happen. He seems to have the feline equivalent of jet lag at the moment, faced with the task of adjusting to his new home...

Oh, what a mysterious looking creature is Max! Super cute.

I love the cat! He looks very hip. How is he settling in? I can see him listening to Newsom.
