They look beautiful and very much at home already. Just as well they are going to be lap cats or you wouldn't get a space on the sofa!

They're beautiful! Sounds like they've found a lovely new home too. smile.

Lovely boys! You can look forward to long winter evenings with cats on your lap. Perfect.

Sue, they are very handsome boys. I adore cats, and have 3 males and one female. I know you will enjoy them and they seem to have made themselves right at home!

They`re beautiful Sue, our first ever cat many years ago was a blue, but he was a beautiful accident, his mum was a tortoiseshell very similar to Soop`s Bracken.

Hope you have many years of affection from Leo and Felix.

Their fur is like velvet, it's short and so thick! We've named them Leo (at the front) & Felix. My Dh keeps calling Felix 'she' so I hope he doesn't have an identity crisis. grin

They are absolutely adorable and their fur looks so dense, lovely boys. What are their names? ?

I know some of us on GN are rather fond of cats so I thought I'd start a thread (my first!) about my new cats.

We lost our 5.5yo cutie-pie, Willow, in April. She had a congenital heart condition and we knew she was unlikely to have a long life but even so, I was heartbroken.

We thought at first that maybe we wouldn't have any more pets but then these two boys came up and they moved in and took over on Sunday. grin They are Russian Blue brothers, 8yo. Their owners have moved to Korea and couldn't take them.

They're behaving as if they've lived here all their lives! They're militantly affectionate, when they want a stroke or a tickle, they stop at nothing to get one. There was a massive fight literally with fur flying on Monday, which I imagine is down to territory and dominance issues, but it's been peaceful ever since. We haven't had lap cats for years but these two are going to keep us warm this winter, I think. grin
