18. You forgot to mention his over-sized ears.

When he was a tiny kitten small enough to hold in the palm of my hands while he slept waiting for his first vet visit I marveled at how big his ears were! He actually grew into them. You can kind of tell their size here as he's licking his brother Sebastian. He loved his big brother. Sebastian was 15 when died Xavier was three and he was never the same after that. It was like his kitten-hood was over. He became so serious after that. I wish we had better pictures of Xavier when he was a kitten. Those were the days before access to good and affordable digital cameras so not many big-eared kitten pictures. I love my little X and I Will always miss him so.
