Gwenllian is the most independent of the 4 kittens. It's rare when she joins the group nap. It's rarer when she hops up on my lap, so I grabbed my phone and TRIED to get a good photo. What I got was this, but it's still pretty cute.
A little background about the name, from Historic UK. Gwenllian was an amazing woman so I'll include a link, if anyone is interested in her story. (If Squeaky didn't already have a home, he would have likely been named Dylan, after the poet, Dylan Thomas.)
Here's a snip: Gwenllian was a warrior princess, leading an army of Welshmen in 1136 against the mighty Norman forces. Her bravery has made her a beloved figure, revered much like Boudica for her strength and tenacity in the face of great danger.
