Hehe, what a little trouble maker!
Interesting aside- I’ve had a few batches of kittens in the past and the most vocal “mischievous“ ones were all orange and white very similar to this little monkey.

Can confirm, my kitty Nemo is a handful. We just entered the screaming at me at 5am every single day stage and it's rough. Falling asleep while typing this.

Ooh, that is pretty rough. Nothing quite like the constant screaming to get you to jump into action! I feel there is a genetic component to dsh colors’ temperments/behaviour. All my color points were the SWEETEST little kittens,chill, cuddly and generally joys to have around. Those o&w rascals though never stopped talking/ screaming as kittens. Even the newborns were more vocal than the rest.

I once trapped a little calico and her orange and white sister and had to foster them for a month. The orange one was definitely more of a rascal!

One of my fosters (and me) learned that staying in the milk carton crate overnight was a privilege, not a right. Back into the cat carrier we went after the second time we stuck our head out a hole in the milk crate, got stuck, and screamed bloody murder at 2 in the morning until rescued THIRTY MINUTES after we did it the first time.

Once they get a taste for freedom you may as well give in and give them the run of the house!!

That’s the one you keep. Who wants boring. My orange boy is like no other cat I have ever had over the many years I have been around. He does everything at 200% and 200mph. That includes being a silly love bug at times. Not sure why I had never experienced an orange before but not sure I would ever want anything else now. Enjoy the chaos and everything else he gives you.
