Xander
Location: Haskell, New Jersey, USA
Xander was adopted from the Bloomfield Animal Shelter. He was all by himself when they found him. In this picture he is about eight weeks old (he’s six now). The day we picked him up from the shelter was the same day my husband proposed to me. So Xander is also known as the “engagement kitty”.

Oh no! I thought I had the engagement kitty!
Xander is a cutie – and YAY can post on the main page!
Xander is just beautiful. I want an orangie just like him.
What a great story! I love the orange boys best. I’ve had many kitties and it seems they
are the absolute sweetest…
Xander appears pretty content in this photo.
May you all have many happy, healthy years
together. Squish him for me!!!
gorgeous kitten. I’ve never had an orangie but I am firmly convinced boy kitties are more affectionate.
I would have thought so too once upon a time, but now that I have one of each, I can’t make up my mind on which one of mine is more loving.
My orange boy is definitely needy and asks for affection loudly (whatever it takes), and is always vocally appreciative of it (he meowls when he’s happy and rolls on his belly a lot), but my grey girlie never gets tired of being petted. She’ll sit there and purr, and then she’ll start licking me and loving on me (the other cat does not do that).
I think the only difference is that the boy demands it, while the girl will just look at you and look at you until you’re mesmerized and have to pet her. =P
What a sweetie! I love the story behind him as well! He looks like he is right at home in this picture. Many years of belly rubs to Xander!
What a handsome, relaxed, confident-looking kitty 😀
I love those big ears on him, it reminds me of my orange boy and his long ears when he came to live with us (he was bigger). He’s still got huge ears when compared to the rest of his face, I call them his “siamese ambitions”. LOL
what a sweet little engagement gift! xander is a beaut, may you have many happy stripey n’ ginger years together 🙂
Xander is a very cute orangie! Sammy thinks so too!

Such orangeness! He’s a very handsome fellow. 🙂
Orange boys are the BEST kitties in the world. I’ve had two (Siddhartha (Sid) and Basil(Baz)) and both were very loving, playful, and affectionate.
I agree that orange boys are the best! I have three of them! Congrats on the kitty and engagement!
What a pretty little red kitty. I’ll bet he has grown into quite a handsome adult.
May you both have many happy years together.
Xander is great! What a happy day that was, a beautiful kitty AND getting engaged! Congratulations on both!
Congratulations on your acquisition of a cat and a husband.
I love this orange kitten!!!
I’d like one just like that.
He’s so happy and relaxed…..May you have many happy furever years with each other…..A cutie if I’ve ever seen one…..
Wow, what a handsome little guy!
awesome orangie! 🙂
He’s gorgeous…six years old, so I’m guessing the wedding has taken place? Was Xander part of the ceremony?
What a beautiful orangie. And he has a lovely view! That is so sweet that you were proposed to on the same day that Xander came into your life.
What a sweet story and lucky little kitty.
What stripey goodness! He’s wonderful!!
Awwww gotta love orangies, and Xander is a doll! 🙂

I would rather have Xander than a diamond any day!
