The new Kitten

In July of last year we took in a black kitten that had been left abandoned in a gopher hole next to our house. Actually, I'm not entirely certain he was abandoned and not placed for adoption with us by his mother, who hung around long enough to look us over as prospective parents and see that we were feeding him and playing with him before heading off to fill the world with more of her offspring.
This drawing illustrates just how difficult Shadow's integration with our two siamese has been, but he's intelligent, persistent and insufferably cute so I know he'll win them over in the end.
