The litter tray

New boy - name suggestions please?

He's half Bengal, 11 weeks old

Have him quietly stashed in shower room atm, away from other cats; he's mellowing out in the peace & quiet & can't really tell what he's like yet.

But all ideas welcome Smile

He's half bengal, he'll be a naughty little lad.

Bertie is a good name for naughty bengal boys.

We need more photos though.

Oh Bagel - Jeremy is one of the kids' favourites! (for that nice Mr Corbyn Grin)

But DS1 has a friend called Jeremy (& DS2 has a friend called Bertie, Fluffy Smile ) so those could get confusing

Some fab suggestions here, thanks all. I do like Dennis - I suspect he will be a menace - I let him out for bit this morning & he was halfway up a bookcase behind me.

Soon the most uttered phrase will be "NO! Dont".

Word to the wise, step ladders are now a really bad idea in your house.

Especially if the ladders been set up under the loft hatch.

Whens he having is maracas off?

No loft hatch or ladders indoors, Fluffy, thankfully Grin - we do have eaves storage cupboards off the attic room but they are completely sealed inside (& actually quite clean).

He kept climbing all over me when I was trying to work at the computer earlier, but after I put him down on the bed a couple of times he subsided & started playing with things instead of me, so that was pleasing. He's currently snoozing on the windowsill (I have windowsill cushions from zooplus)

He's nearly 12 weeks now - what's the usual age for maraca removal? I know my vet spays early, I'll ask this afternoon what they recommend.

I would neuter as soon as the vet says it's safe. Bengals do not take prisoners when their playing.

Does he have a name yet.

Report
TheOneWiththeNicestSmile · 05/09/2015 19:28

second vacs in 3 weeks & neutering after that if his balls have dropped by then (hope they have, I can imagine him getting more rambunctious by the day otherwise Grin. The vet said they just wait until they have???)

He alternates between naughty & sweetly adorable. he has scary paws - like an owl's when he flexes them.

No name yet but I'm liking the new suggestions. (Funny that we have Mowgli followed immediately by Mungo - for an Archers listener anyway!)

Everybody ok with Mowgli so far. I was wondering about Tigger, as he has the stripes & is full of bounce. Or maybe Leo for the leopard spots on his belly. (Everybody else said no to Dennis Sad)

Who's his favourite person? asbo had massive balls at 16wks.

He is truly stunning. What a looker!

I'd call him Ravi as he's ravishing or Harry Krishna but Tigger works well too Smile

The Mowgli post made me remember the Mungo debacle on The Archers, of course! Grin
