Best way to heal your heart - when ready

We weren’t ready after BastardCat died suddenly in March but Little Beast joined us a couple of weeks ago and is wonderful. Currently purring loudly whilst giving me nose kisses and making biscuits on my chest - claws retracted.

What a very pretty kitty Smile

Gorgeous kitten.Smile

Is he a Siamese 😍

MrsCatE · 29/10/2021 22:27

@Sleepinghyena sort of Siamese. Apparently ‘they’ create the breed by crossing brown Bengal with a Siamese and call results Bengal Seal Lynx but to be honest, I think all made up nonsense. Even better specialist cat vet unsure. We adopted (at accepted risk) from a rescue. He’s had loads of health issues (hence dumped at rescue) however, you’d never know it; his default is 100% on and he’s a nutter plus cuddly.

@MrsCatE Aww, he is gorgeous! I hope he is feeling better now and well done you for adopting him ♥️ I have two Siamese- life is never dull with them !

So glad Beast has settled in, he's so adorable.

ArchwizardTVampirebat · 30/10/2021 00:03

Oh, he's lovely.

You can never replace a cat but you absolutely can fill the cat-shaped hole in your life.

His combined heritage means you'll have a real character on your hands!

NotMyCat · 30/10/2021 00:31

Bengal x Siamese is.. brave GrinGrin
Absolutely gorgeous

TaraR2020 · 30/10/2021 00:35

I've never heard the phrase biscuits on my chest before but its brilliantGrin

AmberLynn1536 · 30/10/2021 00:37

Gosh what a beauty!

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 30/10/2021 09:08

Beast is gorgeous - absolutely love the second picture Grin

Seaweasel · 30/10/2021 09:14

It's true, we got GirlCat from a rescue only a fortnight after our lovely Boycat died 3 years ago. She doesn't replace him but she brings so much joy. The fact was, we suddenly had a home which needed a cat and she was a cat who needed a home.

MrsCat1 · 30/10/2021 10:24

Beautiful kitty! Enjoy!
We lost our gorgeous dcat a couple of weeks ago and are already looking to fill the vacancy. He has left such a big hole in our lives. Watch this space...

Furries · 30/10/2021 13:28

What a stunner! I have a feeling he’ll keep you amused and on your toes 🤣

It’s so hard when we lose them - he has landed on his paws finding a home with you, you’re just what each other needs.

Looking forward to many more photos as time progresses.

Mojoj · 30/10/2021 13:30

So beautiful 😍

MrsCatE · 30/10/2021 21:32

This cat is really the best beast ever to heal my heart. He’s so different from BastardCat which is a good thing. I can still mourn BastardCat whilst welcoming Little Beast into my life. Honestly, I’ve been blessed with the most playful, cuddly beast ever!

Ahhhh he's gorgeous ( and I think you should just call him Little Beast Grin )

He has the this'll do for now look that I'm very familiar with from my rescue animals

MrsCatE · 30/10/2021 22:44

I lurvve him. Just watched whole of ‘Strictly’ with comatose, purry beast on my chest. I can highly recommend this way of way of critiquing . . . anything. . . We’re off for more sleep.

I know it looks like Little Beast and I spend our whole life on the sofa but not true! We play a lot and he’s also really good at entertaining himself. The whole house has been turned into kitten playground.

MrsCatE · 31/10/2021 20:01

I know not helping my case in claiming we’re not stuck to sofa but . . . He’s stressed out by Strictly Results - he doesn’t want anyone to go home.
