She kinda looks like his kitten doesn't she lol, I'm hoping their growth will even out a bit now that she's eating really well, a lot of Arya's size is down to her eating poorly for the first few weeks she was on solid food along with being the smallest of a litter of 5 which had 2 very large males hogging all the milk. Arya apparently was always rushing around and bounding around before and didn't sleep much, since she came here she sleeps a lot more and seems to really be growing, maybe staying still for a while is helping lol. She went from just under 0.4kg (14.10oz)at her 12 week inoculations to 0.9kg (31.74oz) at 16 weeks so she is really growing rapidly now.
Griffith is 1.9kg (just over 4lb) so he's twice the size of Arya I tend to see it as he's a large male and she's a small female so it looks more dramatic. She makes up for her size though with her personality she's extremely feisty and outgoing, she's always climbing and into everything when she isn't sat purring on my lap, Griffith on the other hand is a very soft and quiet boy (except when he's eating or pooping lol) he lets Arya take the lead in everything and she's always picking on him and stealing his favourite green Kong mouse. He also never takes his claws out unlike her who hasn't quite learnt to keep hers in yet much to Griffith's dismay over his eye.
My two playing on the floor amusing themselves, I think the vet bed rugs need a wash though lol, they have been ripping up cardboard boxes as well today so it's all over the floor.
I do find the contrast between the two amusing but their personalities work so well together that after a while you don't notice the size difference as much, she's so full of herself that she doesn't realise she's small she thinks she's bigger than Griffith lol.
