Currently in the middle of making arrangements to meet - he's a breed rescue - and yet to check over the house for 'breakability' issues etc. (He's only young - and it's a good few years since I had a cat that could potentially leap living with me.)

Yikes!!

What colour is he?

A chocolate point.

Yep. Carnage Grin but also sounds very cute

Fluffycloudland77 · 04/07/2017 18:04

I've been thinking its time for you to have a newboy. It doesn't seem right for you to be cat-less somehow.

Are you going to re-name him?.

Toddlerteaplease · 04/07/2017 18:06

Ooh how exciting. I'm sure senior boy will be looking down and helping him plot carnage!

cozietoesie · 04/07/2017 18:18

All of our (singleton) Siamese have had the same name so I think I pretty well have to rename him - I'm not sure what to say about that to his current owner though.

Aha! A "kitten"! I'm sure all will be well once he's broken you in. So glad you are getting another. Nothing replaces the ones that went before, but the next one always has its own personality and quirks, so not a replacement at all, more a new force of nature to mould you and hone you, until you are just right Smile

EachandEveryone · 04/07/2017 19:10

Do you know his background bless him? Are you buying all new again? It's very exciting.

Icequeen01 · 04/07/2017 20:03

Another one here who has been expecting this post 😀😀 So pleased for you and can't wait to hear about all your adventures together and I'm sure there will be many! Looking forward to sharing the roller coaster ride with you Cozie 😀

PosiePootlePerkins · 04/07/2017 20:38

Such lovely news. Good luck and enjoySmile

caffeinestream · 04/07/2017 20:58

Yay! I'm so pleased to hear this :) We need pictures!

cozietoesie · 04/07/2017 21:07

No pictures tonight, I fear. He's here but is under the sofa, frightened. I'm going to watch some TV to show how innocuous I am. Wink

He hasn't said a word since we did our Checkpoint Charlie bit. (He's supposed to be a motormouth when he's relaxed.)

Settle well gorgeous choc point. Loitering for pictures soon!

Vinorosso74 · 04/07/2017 21:41

Bless him. He'll pose once he's ready!

NoSquirrels · 04/07/2017 21:44

Ooh. Congratulations Cozie

HemanOrSheRa · 04/07/2017 21:45

Yay! He'll come round when he realises how fabulous you are Smile. You tell him he has dozens of us waiting for photos. I hope you have a settled night with him Smile.

Ollivander84 · 04/07/2017 21:47

Ollie was quiet at first. Once he started he hasn't shut up since

Ski37 · 04/07/2017 21:53

Can't wait to see the pictures !
cosie you've made me both laugh and cry with your descriptions of your cats ! I'm sure this one will be truly loved! Can't wait to meet them!

TheCatOfAthenry · 04/07/2017 21:57

I'm all excited!

Fluffycloudland77 · 04/07/2017 22:02

Excellent plan.

MinkyWinky · 04/07/2017 22:04

How exciting. Hopefully he'll appear soon!

cozietoesie · 04/07/2017 22:45

When I was out of the room, he moved from under the sofa to under the bed. Still no noise - but this is a brave wee boy. Smile

Lovely news cozie!

cozietoesie · 05/07/2017 00:41

Newboy is exploring. Shock He just came into the kitchen downstairs while I was using the microwave. Gave himself a fright, I think.
