'''New Knightling''' is the new [[Dame Knight|Knightling]] at [[A Litter of Cats Who Love Each Other]]. Like his older siblings, [[Dan]] and [[Lance]], he will be named after a Knight of the Round Table. He seems to be the only kitten from Dame Knight's second known litter. He was first sighted by the global community on December 16, 2024. | '''New Knightling''' is the new [[Dame Knight|Knightling]] at [[A Litter of Cats Who Love Each Other]].

Like any kitten, the New Knightling has been seen running off startled at the sound of falling food. It was soon seen, though, that the New Knightling is far from a scaredy cat. | Like any kitten, the New Knightling has been seen running off startled at the sound of falling food. It was soon seen, though, that the New Knightling is far from a scaredy cat. It was able to stand up for itself against Torbie Mama for a long time, even after its older brother ran off. It also hissed at George, who pissed on it. In addition, it is a resilient kitty; after a confrontation with another cat, it soon resumes eating without seeming phased at all. The New Knightling gets along with its big brother, [[Dan]], and the two can be seen together often. | ||
At the feeder, it happily eats both kibble and chicken snacks, although it may not be old enough to have developed a preference yet. | |||

The New Knightling is an Orange Tabby, like its older brother. Its face and body is mostly orange, resembling [[Bill]] when he was a baby. The New Knightling, however, has a small stripe of white going down the left side of its nose. Its paws are white. | The New Knightling is an Orange Tabby, like its older brother.

** At 5:46 PM (LFT), the New Knightling was spotted for the first time, eating from the bowl alongside its mother, [[Dame Knight]]. After a few minutes, Dame Knight laid down outside the feeder, letting the New Knighting have the bowl to itself. It climbed inside the bowl to finish eating what was left inside. It then played around the feeder for a few minutes while its mother resumed eating, then joined her again. Shortly after Dame Knight left a second time, chicken snacks were dropped; the New Knightling was brave and, even though it was startled, stayed sitting in front of the feeder. After regaining its composure, it ate the chicken snacks. | |||
** At 6:34 PM (LFT), the New Knightling returned to the feeder, this time by itself. It ate some chicken snacks before leaving a minute later. | |||

** At 1:33 PM (LFT), the New Knightling was seen eating from the bowl while its big brother, Dan, sat beside it, and their mother sat outside the feeder. When it was finished eating, it played around with its brother while their mother ate, then returned as their mother left. At 1:44, Torbie Mama showed up to the feeder and began hissing and growling at Dan and the New Knightling. The New Knightling assumed a fierce aggressive pose, and the siblings hissed and growled back at Torbie Mama. A few minutes later, Dan fled, leaving the New Knightling to face Torbie Mama alone. The New Knightling hissed back and forth with Torbie Mama for several minutes, as she slowly inched it out of the feeder. Even once it was forced out, and was laying on the ground between the feeder and the tarp, it continued to hiss at Torbie Mama until she lunged at him, after which it finally left. It wasn't scared away for good though; after Torbie Mama left, and Dan visited the feeder for a minute, the New Knightling emerged from the crack in the ground and resumed eating like nothing much happened at all. <br>Unfortunately, the New Knightling's problems weren't over yet. At 2:00, George appeared at the feeder. The New Knightling hissed at George, and in return, George pissed on it. George stood there for a few more seconds, then walked away. The New Knightling resumed eating, and a minute later, its mother reappeared. The New Knightling stared off into space, contemplating the recent events, then, finally able to relax, hung out with its mother while she ate. <br /> | |||
