Thread: Two newcomers

Firstly so so sorry,there is a Rainbow Bridge section on the forum as so many of us had to face loosing one of our babes that a special section was requested....
Secondly welcome to you & your new furrbees for when they arrive. As to which gender to go for I would say follow your heart.I find with MC's the boys tend to be more the village idiot & girls busy,busy,busy. My first girl China RIP who was adult when we had her was always into things & on the go up until a few hours before we lost her,I then had singletons that included two boys & a flat chested girl{who also put the boys to shame in the busy stakes}then went on to have two brothers,brilliant experience having two together,wasn't intended we went to see our choosen one & the other one said I am coming too,one has been a purr bug & lap cat from day one the second one very loving but didn't want to cuddle only on his terms & didn't & still hardly ever purrs,he up until very recently did behave quite like a girl in the fact that he was on the go more but now at just over four he also has gone into the more laid back male mode,I did miss having a girl in the mixture as little Pansy P went into a shell after loosing China so have now got another female in the home & it sure has sparked everyone off again,the boys have finished their time as being on watch nannies for her as they obviously feel she can look after herself but their sleep pattern sure is different its a case of oh no here she comes again tornado sweeping through....
So after essay back to your questions,I don't think you can ever say what combination will work 100%,wether they will get along 100%,although it is more likely if they are siblings,certainly didn't work with our two that we got ignored as the one did luv to be with you but it was great watching them play together & eyes in the back of your head do help,don't think that any pairing is more likely to induce fights,hopefully there won't be any although once you get more than one animal a top cat is more likely to come into play but still needn't be of any problem,I still think you are better to go with an open mind & see which ones want to come home with you & as soon as your mind is made up let us know & ask breeder for some pictures that you can post to make us all go broody....x

So many thnx for your answer!!!!! I really appreciate it!!!! So many things...
However, anyone who can tell me anything related, he/she would be more than welcomed.

Hi

I had 2 boys from the same breeder, not the same litter and they didnt met until one was 6 weeks old ( only kitten ) and the other 5 weeks old ( 5 siblings). A bit like Jackie , I have one who loves to be close to you and wants fuss and will settle next to you , the other will take himself off and reappear when his tummy rumbles.... but haveing said that he always greets me first and rolls on his back to have his tummy tickeled and will on occasion lie on my lap, after kneeding it to death , until i have to move him as i have lost all feeling in my legs. They charge around together, trip us up as they fly down the stairs, cuddle on their tower together , and have 'scraps' together, but they also have their separate time. I am so glad I had two!!!! Just wish....... ahh well been told not allowed!

Swells, thank you for your answer.
The thing is that when my last coon passed, the house looked so empty and still is. We were all devostated. This is why I wanna have two. And, of course, because I think that one cat alone is getting easily bored.
That's why I wonder which would be the ideal genre compilation. I was thrilled with the Idea of having two males, but now I kind off reconceider things. Maybe is not such a bad idea of having one and one.

I think the genders don't really matter. The main thing is that you're having 2 kittens together, and my goodness that will be so much fun. In most litters there will be a natural pairing of siblings, so I would watch the kittens and talk to the breeder, and get the 2 kittens who are best friends, whatever their gender.

Looking forward to some pictures in due course x

That wouldn't be such a bad idea. However -and plz don't get me wrong-, I definitely want at least one boy. In nature, as you know, the male characteristics are more representative of the breed (that goes for all animals). I really want a large MC. Imagine that the father is 8.50 kilos and the mother 7.50. Pretty large animals.

Listen to you heart when you choose the babes! You will do the right deicssion and the sweeties will definately show you who will belong to you!
You can ask in the cattery if there is a couple who is playing lots together as well but the most important ist the own decission, from you and the kittis.

Well, in that case I should adopt the one girl that gets along better with one of the boys. And the boy as well, of course.
