Introducing...Kenya

[Shady]

Kenya is so beautiful! I hope the introductions continue to go well!

Thank you!

I thought I would update on the introductions.

Today was meet and greet, in the living room/dining room.

I brought Kenya down from his room in the carrier and placed it on the floor...Kewpie Rocky and of course Spike in his crate observed the carrier..

After no one showed aggression, I let Kenya out of his carrier and he began to explore..as soon as he moved in Kewpie's direction, she hissed twice and left..and watched from the top of the stairs..while Kenny went over every square inch of the area..Rocky just watched, then I got out the laser and they both played side by side, according to Rocky's reaction, it seemed like Kenya was always here, Rocky was relaxed and unconcerned. Kenya went up to the crate Spike is in, they made eye contact and nothing again, (considering spike hisses and growls at me while he's in the crate and cant move away) that is remarkable to me. Neither were concerned with eachother after that.

Tomorrow I increase from one hour, to 1 1/2 hours, I'm told it's ok Kewpie left and that she is just afraid, but with more exposure should lessen and then subside.

Thank you everyone again, for your nice comments and advice, it's really nice to have some support.

Sounds good, in that you are taking introductions slowly, so that should lessen the inevitable "trauma" certain cats seem always to face.

There should have been a "BEAUTIFUL WARNING!" in the title of this thread! I can not believe what a beauty he is!! He reminds me of my RB Chynna. If Kenya is as smart and Chynna was, you will have a very smart boy there..I would have him spolied so rotten..

Thank you, Carole, he does take my mind away from it most times, but yes there's no replacing, I don't want to do that.

Thanks! I'm looking forward to that!

Very slowly, He's won Rocky over, and Spike showed no adverse reaction even though he's crated. Kewpie is proving a little more difficult, but not terrible.

Chynna is a beautiful name for what I am sure was a beautiful baby, its hard to tell yet how smart he'll be, we'll see! Thank you Laura!

Hi sweet Kenya! What an adorable furball!!! Hope all will go well with Kewpie. It's never easy with females, they are very territorial inside their home with new kitties.

^that is his, new noise face..

Thank you, I believe it's all working out.

They spent 6 hours in the same proximity today..no incidences, Kewpie was a little hissy at first, but she stuck it out she didnt leave, just made sure he kept his distance. He and Rocky ignore eachother for the most part, he hissed at Rocky once, but it didnt faze Rocky..

Hello there, Kenya and welcome to Pet Talk!

What a beautiful kitty! The first thing I noticed are those absolutely beautiful blue eyes! How could any of us not fall instantly and completely in love with him! Those eyes, that adorable little button nose, his soft pure white coat. His very first picture knocked me right off the chair!!!

I wish both of you many, many years of love and companionship Kenya looks like a real little lovebug Could I ask you to give him some "welcome" lovies for me? I'm also sending lots of lovies to all of your beautiful katkids
