New Family Members

So we collected our new little family members yesterday, and so far so good. Its been a long time since we had kittens although our daughter's two rag dolls come and visit from time to time and these little ones had been bought by someone who had a severe allergic reaction to them and needed to re home. They were a little shell shocked after all the change and then a 5 hour car journey, but apart from an initial protest they travelled very well, and have not stopped eating and playing since they got here. They are still a little wary of human people but slept on our bed last night and I know that will change.

AAhhhhhhhh they are beautiful! Love their markings - have fun! :rofl:

How lovely. They look like little bundles of complete choas! :LOL:

What a couple of little sweethearts,you are all very lucky to have found each other...

Help... I'm melting... :smile:

Counting the days until mine come home.

Oh my, they are simply delicious ... and such posers! How long are those whiskers?!

Look forward to lots more pics once they start settling in which doesn't look as if it will take long :LOL:

Thank you all - we will be sure to keep you posted:rofl:

Beautiful kittens x

How adorable! I love have both my kitties in the bed with me, although my husband frequently has to twist in a pretzel to avoid disturbing them.

Utterly gorgeous!

I cant wait for mine to come home - 49 days! :rofl:

16 days for me. Counting every waking hour. I'll say it again: I feel soooooo excited.

Do other ladies on here think it is great to see the men getting as excited as us over waiting for MC's to join the family & the different antics they get up to,hubby has always loved all our animals but he is just sooo proud of these cats ,he invites people in to see them & at the shows,I thought I could be pretty friendly & talk about them but he is worse than me,I know that says something before some bright spark puts it on....!!!! x

No they arrived with them, I think put on by their previous owner. We've left them for now but I'm not a fan of collars for cats so these will probably go. The babies were a unplanned arrival and brought basic essentials with them - we are just working through a shopping list and not having had house cats before I'm thinking maybe harnesses would be a good idea for outside visits, in which case it is probably a good thing that they are already used to collars.

We are only on day 4 and they have settled really well, they are eating well and have a huge interest in food with attempts being made to dive bomb our plates at mealtimes! They are both now coming up for cuddles and are very vocal in making demands for attention. We started them off in one room and gradually opened up the house and they both now seem very at home. So far so good!

Things can only get better ,so very pleased that you are all getting on so well together.

I think I know where Candes was going with the cat collars,she most probaly thought

the same as me but got round it in a very polite way.Take em off,for one thing with coats

like MC's have they will leave a mark around the neck where they rub,you can always

tell even on a domestic short haired when they have been wearing them,also some don't

release like they should if they get hung up on something....
