| This is me when I was only 8 weeks old - how young and innocent I looked then!  And how much slimmer!  I could barely wrap my tail around my feet to keep them warm.  Those were the days.
 I was born in Worcester and was one of seven.  My feline mummy was a long-haired tabby, and my daddy was a grey and white shorthair.  So I turned out sort of part tabby, part white and short-haired.  I was the last one of my brothers and sisters to go to a new home - I was waiting for someone very special (well, actually I was hiding under the TV when the other people came).

   | ![[Pixel with Mr Weasel]](pixel/pixweasl.jpg) | I liked to play a lot - here I am with Mr Weasel, one of my favourite toys.  He looks sparkling brand new here - you should see him now, one eye missing, nose chewed off, fur all claggy - ergghh! Those new kittens have ruined him. | 
   | Can you see the white dot on my back?  That's why Mummy and Daddy called me Pixel. | ![[Pixel exploring]](pixel/explore.jpg) | 
   | ![[Pixel by door]](pixel/pixel3.jpg) | There I am, all ready to explore the world.  What lies outside?  Lots of female cats, so I've heard - girls!!!!  I have to look my best. | 
   | Ah - somewhere comfy to sleep after a long day. A nice lap, perhaps?  Mummy's lap is the best. | ![[Pixel asleep on lap]](pixel/pixlap.jpg) |
