Allow Me To Introduce…

 

About a year ago we tried to get another cat from Hidden Treasures Cat Sanctuary in Orland. We picked out a sweet girl we named Agatha. It turned out she was a lot older than we thought she was. We brought her home and did all the recommended things to slowly introduce another cat to an already established one. That was Neelix. Neelix seemed agreeable to finally touch noses with Agatha. Unfortunately she went ballistic and tried to take Neelix out. It became very clear this would not work. They allowed us to bring her back to the shelter and discovered that she already belonged to someone and should not have been adopted out. Lesson learned.

 

Yesterday we went to the shelter again and this time made sure we got younger female cats. They seemed to be very loving and cuddly so we brought them home. So far, there appears to be a détante between them and Neelix. We are cautiously hopeful.

 

 

So here is Marv with Bailey. She’s named after Bailey Quarters from WKRP in Cincinnati.

 

 

And here I am with Ketzel. Ketzel is the Yiddish word for ‘cat’. Gants gut, nisht azoy? (I got that phrase from Google translate.)
