A Silver Tabby Kitten Sits Neatly Under the Orange and Black Garland
Hanging above the carpet is a felt garland of black and orange pennants, and right beneath it sits a small silver tabby kitten with her ears turned out and her eyes focused on something nearby. Her gray stripes swirl in neat patterns across her body, and her round white paws sit together in front of her. A wicker basket with dried flowers and a pair of slippers sit in the background.
American Shorthairs are healthy, sturdy cats with a long history as working cats on farms and ships, kept to catch mice. Today they are popular family pets, known for being easygoing and playful. The silver tabby pattern is a classic look, and a kitten like this one may enjoy a gentle game with a wand toy and some quiet time on a lap.
Hanging garlands is a lovely way to decorate, but felt, string and tape can tempt a kitten to bat or chew. It is best to hang them high, check that nothing dangles into her reach and pick up anything that falls. If a kitten swallows string, thread or decoration pieces, call your vet right away, since such items can cause serious trouble.
We will call her Pennant. She has taken a seat underneath the decoration as if she planned the whole event, and she is sitting politely with a very focused look. The party can begin now that she has found the best spot in the house.
