He was a surprise Birthday present for Mike, from Louise and their daughter. Calzoni now lives in Ealing, West London, with some little dogs for company.

Calzoni (which means 'stockings' in Italian) was renamed Leon, when he went to live with his new family. He was a very pretty kitten, with attractive markings and a super, easy going temperament.
He is still like that today and has become quite famous in his local neighbourhood by accompanying his owner on visits to the local coffee shop, at the end of their road!
Unfortunately, the pictures I have of him are all in his short summer coat, but I am reliably informed he is twice the size with a magnificent full coat in the cooler winter months.

Fil's litter were like peas in a pod and it was very difficult to tell them apart, so Fil and Fe wore little coloured collars, just so I could see who was who. I took them both to their first show at Rugby when they were 4 months old and even the judges found it hard to find any real differences at that age.
Now that they have grown up there are subtle differences, both is size, colour and personality. Fil is the softer, easy going cat and absolutely adores his human Mum and rarely misses a night when he doesn't sleep as close as possible, to her. Very accepting of the new arrival Spitfire, he too is allowed to snuggle up next to him in this premium sleeping space!
