Chester and the intros.

[rg_girlca]

Doesn't he look so sweet and innocent...............NOT!!!!!!!!

I have been slowly introducing Chester to some of my boys. Once his hissing and growling stopped when seeing them through the glass doors, I decided to see how it would go. First it was leaving the door open a bit, then I had him in my big carrier in the middle of the living room for a few days and then put a baby gate across the bedroom door. All seemed to go well by this. Tuesday, decided to let him out of the room to meet Lindy Lou, Nugget, Poppy & Willy. Basically it went well for the first 1/2 hour. In fact he and Lindy Lou were playing together. Then for some reason he got nasty with Poppy, so back in the room he went. Wednesday, tried again. At first all was well. Let Mooky out this time to join the others. Chester did not like Mooky and for some reason attacked Nugget. Back in the room he went. Tried again later, but didn't go well. Today was the worse.
For about the first 15 minutes all was well. Then out of nowhere he viciously attacked little Lindy Lou and before I could stop it, he went after Willy and then Nugget. I grabbed him, but he went to bite me and I dropped him and he went right after Poppy and cornered him under my bed. I was able to pull Poppy out from under the bed and get him out of the room, but Chester was right behind him. Thankfully I was able to slam the door shut before he got out. He ran under the bed and I went to see how Lindy was. She's was okay but very shakened up by the attack as was I. I came very, VERY close to wanting to throw him outside tonight, but I know it isn't his fault.
I truely think that Chester would do better right now as an only cat.

BUT, I do have some good news. A girl came to see him on Monday and just fell in love with him. She e-mailed tonight to let me know that she wants to adopt him, but won't be able to come and get him til next weekend.
That's fine, because he has to get his booster shot on the 27th. Needless to say that Chester will not be getting out of the room anytime soon. The thing is, that he is such a lovebug and cuddles up on my chest every night giving me headbumpies and sleeps with the side of his face on my cheek.

So that's the update on my lastest rescue Chester. Sorry it was so long.

Thank God noone was seriously hurt. You are doing the right thing adopting him to a single cat home. He will be more comfy, and sounds like your kitties will be as well! Thank you for saving him!

Have a great life Chester, you are a good boy, but you cant help how you feel about other kitties! Sometimes we cant get along nicely, esp if we had to fight other outdoor kitties. Kisses to Chester

Sounds like how things are going with Boo! All goes well and I let my guard down and that is when she will attack somebody. She snapped at me the other night and I have yet to figure out why. She will crawl up in my lap purring wanting loving then snap at me right in the middle of enjoying herself.

Chester! Calm down boy!! Nobody likes a bully and that is no way to make friends!

Some cats are just meant to be in a one cat household, hopefully he has found his little corner of the world.

Well great news that Chester has the offer of a home. It looks as though you could have problems otherwise. He is a gorgeous ginger boy, and I hope everything works out for him.

I wonder how long it will be before you find another cat?

That's excellent news that Chester has a new home, and lets hope he settles and has lots of love lavished on him, he probably will if he's the only cat, he's not daft is he!! Lol
Well done on another successful adoption

It sure sounds like Chester's new Meowmie is the real deal! He sure is a beautiful kitty boy and I pray that this arrangement works out well for everyone.
Chester, here's wishing you a life filled with love and happiness in your new furever home!
