It is good to have a friend...

After the first two days when Most had arrived, I gave in to paranoia and declared my fear that he and Tengil never would become friends. 3 days later the cats proved me wrong. To proof this, I put together this potpurri of picture of the cats snuggeling together.

Two new toys

Both the cats are fine and they are really good friends now. Most is in that active age and runs around a lot. Today he broke his first flower pot (one of my favorites). He has also gained some size to Tengil now and can now successfully attack and throw Tengil to the ground.

We've bought the cats some new stuff. First up is a new scratching post in shape of a troll tree. It has become Most's home, its a bit to small for Tengil. Most also does attacks from the tree, he practically dives on to Tengil and toys.



The other toy is something that really is a storage item for kids. It has also become Most's toy. The first time he went absolutely crazy and he loves it. It seems that he tries to break the record to climb bottom to top.

Window cat

One day we walk up and heard a sound of glass bouncing against floor. When we got up, we noticed that the little candle glas we have in the window in the cats room was on the floor. I tried to figured out how it ended on the floor and came to the (quite unlogicale) conclusion that the cats must have bounced against the wall, so that it bounced and thus threw the glass on the floor. Later that day, the cats were very quite, so I went to look for them. I threw a quick glance in their room, but saw no cats. Looked in rest of the apartment, but couldn't find them, so I looked in their room again. And there was Most, sitting on the catoilett. And Tengil, up in the window which has hardly any window-border. That explained the glas on the floor.

This is how it looked. I think Most looks rather funny, you can see how he wants to be where Tengil is.

A walk in the park

Today the cats and I have to entertain ourselves while Tomek is away with friends. Since it's such a great weather I decided to bring the cats to my parents garden. None of the cats have been there before. Tengil has been outside a couple of times and Most two times. They've been quite careful though and almost acted like they couldn't walk on the grass.

So I packed a little backpack, put the harness on the cats and packed them in their transport bag, filled a box with litter sand, packed all things in the car and off we went. The cats meowed the entire drive, the whole 5 minutes...

Then I unpacked all the stuff in the garden, but the cats were a bit afraid to go out. But Dad used the rat-under-the-blanket-trick and then they dared to come out. It took a little while but both cats started to walk around in the garden and explore. Most found it especially fun to walk around the greenhouse. The first time he sneaked around it, but as he got more confident he walked with his tail high.

Most dared to use the temporary catoilett, but Tengil seemed to think that there was to much around to use it, so he just sat in it.

After two hours the cats were rather tired so we went home. Now, to exhausted cats are lying on the floor in the sun, completely dog-tired.

Sleeping cats

The cats are coming along nicely as friends. They play together, eat together and sleep together. But most on Tengils terms I think. Most have discovered Tengils old cardboard box, and Tengil has discovered that Most uses it sometimes. Then Tengil wants to sleep in it too. Not so much space for both of them though...

This weekend we had the first visitors since we got Most. I was a little worried how it would go, since Most was a little reserved when we got him. But it went absolutely fine! He totally charmed my mom. He was lying in the box with the salmon pink blanket and starting purring when she scratched his neck. Then he started rolling around, being such a cute kitty. Most people think that Most is the cuter of the two, but that's probably because Tengil is bigger and more cornish. Most looks more like an ordinary cat. It will be very interesting to see if he will become more cornish during time.

Friends?

Now Tengil and Most have appeared to become friends. I was quite worried one day, but the day after was so much better. Now they play a lot and Most sometimes chases Tengil, instead of only the way around. Most has also started to play a lot by himself. He just runs around tossing and chasing a play rat. Tengil can't play on his own. They also sleep together sometimes, and I also seen them use the same catoilett, even though they have two.

Most has surprised me in a good way. The last time we visited him before we took him home, he seem rather scared and didn't want to be petted. But even first day when he arrived, he cuddled with us and purred. Now he's quite the little cuddler. He loves to walk around on you and purr, purr, purr.
