    Pixel Is Getting A Brother!

    In ground breaking news at Chalet Pixel, a new cat of as yet unknown identity is soon to join the happy household!

    Our landlord was over tonight, on a trip up from Sydney, to get new copies of our lease. It seemed the perfect time to tentatively broach the subject of a second cat. He said, "okay, as long as she [Pixel] doesn't eat him!"

    Scott seems to also be convinced! Scott has chosen the name Randie, short for "Random Numbers." This is another cat name from the series of books that we obtained Pixel's name from. The name refers to kittens going in one direction, then suddenly running off in another direction at the call of a random number popping up in their head.

    We will begin the search on the weekend, probably on Saturday. Initially, I wanted an older cat but I honestly think that Pixel, with all her bags of energy, would be much better suited to a kitten who would enjoy playing games and snuggling up with her.

    I am going to need some advice regarding introducing a kitten to Pixel who herself is six months of age. I have had some experience introducing older cats to one another, but the kitten to older kitten scenario is totally new!

    Mum to two little humans, a very vocal 14 year old Ragdoll, and a super energetic and snuggly rescue kitten.

    GREAT news!!!

    I am so happy for you and especially for Pixel!!!
    I can't wait to see photos...but unfortunately I can't give you any advice how to introduce a kitten to Pixel (who is with six months of age not so far away from being a kitten herself!!!)

    Oh, this is so exciting...please keep us updated...PLEASE!!!

    WHAT GREAT NEWS!!!!

    And they say it helps if someone Pixel really doesn't know brings the kitten inside. Bring it in, in a carrier and let Pixel see it...

    Tinky was 6 months old when I got Jupiter.. (he was 6 months old too)...

    I put Jupiter in the spare bedroom with food and potty box... and they would sniff under the door and every once in a while I would crack it open to let them see each other..

    I started letting him out after a week and Tinky would growl and hiss.... but all that ended after another week.



    CAN'T WAIT TO MEET THE NEW KITTY!!!

    Oh boy, more kitty pics to see. Can hardly wait!
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Jen, that is exactly the age that Pixel herself is right now, so I am looking anywhere between 12 weeks to 6 months of age

    Sara - LOVE your sig ... hilarious!

    For some reason I "see" a cat that will be names Randie to be an orange. (and nothing more lovable than a big ol' orange male.)
