Introducing.............Red


Well Red is home with me now safe and sound and has been for the last 26 hours!!

I was collecting him from Hartlepool, which is quite a way from me, so I decided to go up half way on Friday night and stay in a Travelodge, then I was refreshed for the rest of the journey on Saturday morning.

I got to the breeders about 10am, met all their cats, had a coffee and then met Red. He was just as gorgeous as all the photos they had sent me He's fairly extreme in his Siamese-ness...............so fingers crossed he'll be good for showing. He has fantastic deep blue eyes.

It took us about 3 hours to get home and it was really hot, which wasn't good Red slept for a lot of the journey and cried for the rest

As soon as we got back I put him in my bedroom and we had a cuddle and a play and then both had a nap He stayed in my room with me all evening and then at bed time I moved him into the spare room, so that the girls could come and sleep on my bed as they always do. He was very good in the spare room and only cried a little before settling for the night.

Today I have introduced him to the others out in the garden and at a distance. Lily, Kuta and Bernard aren't at all bothered by his presence. They didn't even move. Abi seems to have taken a dislike to him though which I'm really surprised about. I actually thought that she would be the one to welcome him the most as she has always been great with newcomers (Bernard, Midas and Lily's babies). The only thing I can think is that it's because he's a little boy and hasn't been neutered yet

She has actually hissed at him and I've never heard her hiss at anyone or anything before He hissed back too, which isn't a good start.

He's been out round the house and in the garden for a while today and he's now back in my bedroom. I want to take it slowly with the introductions.

So, here he is anyway.............

I really hope so Erin. I know it's only early days at the moment and I hope that she'll love him in time.

I'm hoping to get him neutered in about 4 weeks, so maybe that will solve the problem if she doesn't love him by then

I thought she'd love to have another Meezer to "talk" to. Silly me!!
