Keegan's home page

Keegan means "little fiery one" in Arabic.  This refers to both Keegan's coloring as well as his temperment!  (Although, to be fair, Keegan has slowed down a little now that he's no longer a kitten.)  Keegan was added to the family right after Beast died because Basti seemed to be wondering around the house looking for her "brother".   Keegan is a red Abyssinian and he's just over 1 year old. He's quite intelligent and likes to always keep track of what everyone is doing.  Keegan is "momma's little boy" and can many times be found in Kelly's lap or at least close by.  He likes to be hugged and really enjoys being right between "mom" and "dad", even to the point of sleeping there, under the covers, with his head on the pillow!  He's constantly getting into trouble these days.  His usual trouble spots are on the kitchen counters, or bothering Basti.  Sometimes he also hangs out with his 6 month younger brother Rafiki.  They spend time either cleaning each other or biting each other.  Usually both at the same time!

Boys will be boys!

Keegan when he was younger.

Here's a picture of him doing one of the two things he did best when he was younger.  (The other thing was play!)
