He is lovely.
More like the feline equivalent of a flat coated retriever, whereas the Devon/Cornish have very tight perms . One of my sister's former ones was called ET, he was so 'different' looking.

Re: He's here!


DM his coat will get curlier - they don't come into their full curls until 3 and it's hard to tell from pictures of a black cat what their coat looks like lol! His chest and traousers are quite tight curls but his body has not got all its curls yet

I've been off for a Google image search. You're right - they are much longer haired. Look at this pic i found

Re: He's here!


How exciting Soupie!!!!

Personally, I wouldn't just leave the door open and leave them to it - as they may fly at each other and that would be a really bad start.

A cage is definitely the best way to introduce until Pousse gets used to the new one.

If you could start scent-swapping now too, that would be good. i.e take a blanket from the spare room that smells of Quando and put it with Pousse, and take one that smells of Pousse and put it in the spare room. If you do this a few times over the next couple of days then they will get used to the scent of each other.

Just take it slow!!

Best of luck and can't wait for photos!!!!
