About ...
Matisse is one of a little family of 4 kittens who spent a lot of time under a bridge near a river. They were petted by passers-by, and someone was feeding them regularly. But they were getting older and it was time to think about what came next for them. They came to CATNIP for us to find a permanent home.

They had a bit of a cold - you can see it in some of the pictures, but they have mostly got over it now. They have all been bloodtested and vaccinated and so on.

There are 3 black boys - Matisse, Picasso and Renoir and one black and white girl, Fleury.

Matisse is extremely sociable and cuddly and loves to play. He has most of his tail. Little brother Picasso - shown in the video - is the baby of the litter - and he has only a tiny bit of tail. They are both fun little lads and very cuddleable.

[The names? They were like a little colony of artists, living a carefree existance under the bridge next to the river. And the person who brought the kittens to our attention and who donated money to help us rescue them is French. So we think of them as the Impressionist kittens.]
