    Introducing...Kenya

    I'd like you all to meet:


    Kenya of Cedar Swamp (Kenny for short) I made a trip to just North of London, Ontario, yesterday to pick him up..both Tinkerbelle and Kewpie came from the same place..that was already his name. I'm not sure yet how I feel about the name, but I had so many girl names ready, and for the life of me I cant think of anything 'boy' right now. He is nine months old this week already neutered and 7.3lbs already, his paws are huge..so lot's of growth coming I think, and that is Kewpie's present weight!.

    He's so sweet, friendly, he loves to be held, kneads everything he comes in contact with, purrs constantly and then really loudly when you hold or touch him..he's just a little love bug. He is in a room of his own until the introductions are complete..however long that takes..he and Kewpie have seen eachother..and that was completely uneventful.

    I am in love.

    A few quick pics, he's a going concern, so hard right now to get decent shots.







    He comes home to me, two months to the day, that Tinkerbelle passed..I've been told, she sent him to me.

    Oh, he is just ADORABLE! So sweet and beautiful. Sounds like he and Kewpie are already off to a promising start.

    Welcome HOME, Kenya of Cedar Swamp!

    Kenya is truly a work of art - just look at those eyes I'll bet you'll be counting the days to get him home

    Tinkerbelle sure has good taste and wants her mommy to be happy

    Welcome to Pet Talk, Kenya! You better get used to lots of love and attention, as we are sure you're gonna be one spoiled kitty! Tinkerbelle did well, and his name fits well with Kewpie just as it is!

    Thank you all. Kewpie and Kenya came face to face at about five feet, she got all growly and he got scared and cried. This may take awhile, any tips / experiences are welcome.

    As for the combing it is a daily thing here..if you do it daily..(just quickly and lightly) they dont fuss..when you leave it, it's a nightmare..(ask Spike and Rocky)

    At this point I think I will keep the name Kenya..I usually end up having 3 or 4 names for each that they come to know..so we will see.

    Thank you smokey the elder and Catmandu.

    Tonight started the intro's..Spike is still in sick bay but he saw what went on.
    Kewpie hissed, two or three times, Kenya was in the carrier..she walked up to the carrier in slow -mo, sniffed the kitten and the carrier for a few minutes then left..Rocky and Kenya met, nose to nose with no adverse reaction from either..Kewpie then went in my room, where we had a long (45 min) cuddle and she slept..she left again, and then came back and is now sleeping at the bottom of the bed after a little play with her wand.

    Time will tell. I got the impression Rocky just wanted him out to play.

    Kenya has made himself comfortable:
