Fistfight
History and Lore
Fistfight and his sister, Biteback, were a part of a litter of 4 kittens from a stray, unnamed mother. The other siblings, a black kitten and tabby kitten, went to go to the adoption floor immediately, but Fistfight and Biteback were too aggressive and needed Socialization care. Fistfight was the more aggressive of the two, earning his name for his slapping capabilities. Fistfight was nervous and would spit and swipe aggressively and often, but in time began to open up to be an affectionate kitty just in the span of a week.
Fistfight and Biteback were both flea infested when brought in, which is great news as if they were left outdoors, they could've perished from flea-bite related anemia. Currently both have been adopted.
Personality
Fistfight, as previously described, was defensive and resorted to spitting and swatting with claws out. In his mind, he had no idea what was happening which is why Socialization is vital to feral kittens. He was much more explosive than his sister was, but in the week timeline he was cared for opened to be a whole different kitten.
Fistfight became much more attentive and sweet, purring almost immediately when pet or noticed. He felt comfortable resting on top of people, and was less concerned with play and exploration compared to his sister Biteback.
Appearance
Fistfight was the only cat to have tabby and white markings, as the closest sibling in relation was an all tabby. He has beautiful marks around his eyes, caressing his frame. He carries a lot of white on his underside, and was around 2 months old when first discovered.
