Title: Meet Sherlock and Watson
Post by: Alcatraz on June 06, 2012, 13:19:51 PM
Hi guys, it's Tony and Heather here.

I want to introduce you all to the latest family members, Sherlock and Watson.  They joined us on Sunday and have settled in amazingly!  No accidents, very loving and extremely playful!  They're best mates now and really good with our (human) friends.

Sherlock (the darker tabby) is 8 weeks and loves a bit of rough and tumble.  You can see if the picture of him on his own, he wears himself out!

Watson (the ears!) is 9 weeks and has had a little sniffle so has been a bit more quiet however has really come out of his shell in the last day.

Thanks so much to the team at Celia Hammond's Lewisham branch for helping us find the boys and to B and Liam (with their cats Drum and Bass) for showing us Purrs in our Hearts.

I'll no doubt update you all with loads of photos as we get them, but these two are a taster from my phone!

Hi Tony, Hi Heather - and a big "Hellloooo" to Sherlock and Watson from us all at Purrs  :welcome:  What beautiful babies  :Luv2: :wow:  Isn't it fab to see how much they come out of their shells, and to see their personalities developing and forming right in front of your eyes  ;D

We'll look forward to as many photos as you want to post - what's not to love about these two?  :Luv:

Thanks Sue - I'll be honest, they didn't take long to settle in....I'm sure they'll be good for Heather while she's home for the week making sure they stay out of trouble!

 :evillaugh:  Staying out of twubble?  No chance.  ;) 

Glad Watson's sniffle is clearing up. 

Have I been unintentionally rude by omitting Butch and Sundance....?  If so, then my sincere apologies to those two charismatic cowboys, and a welcome to Purrs to you too.

 :welcome: to Purrs   ;D

Glad you've found us thanks to Bass n Drum's lovely owners  ;D  I'm sure you'll enjoy it here - it really is a very friendly forum with lots of friendly helpful advice, if ever needed, and of course lots of fun.

I do feel it my public duty to warn you though that it can be a teensy bit addictive  :Crazy: You have been warned  :evillaugh:

Sherlock and Watson are drop dead gorgeous  :Luv: Which one is Watson?  :shify: Can barely tell the difference between them apart from... the ears  :evillaugh:

 :welcome: :welcome: :welcome: to Purrs to all four of you  :)

What gorgeous furbabes you have there  :Luv2: :Luv2:.  So jealous and it's great Heather has taken the week off.  I always do that when we get a newbie as couldn't possibly concentrate on work and, having one or two more than most, we don't exactly get much of a chance to globe trot when we have time off  :innocent:.

Anyways so very glad that Bee showed you where we are and very much hope we get to see more of these beauties and hear of their antics.  It's great when you have two as they entertain one another so well  :)  Very much hope Watson's sniffles clear up completely toot sweet  :care:

Sending a cuddle to the stunning Drum and Bass whilst I'm here  :hug:

 :welcome:Welcome to Purrs from all of us at the Clan Cats - I have one or tow more than Rosella :rofl:

I like having the time off for the newbies in my case its usually lots of little hissfits who become Clan kittens with a lot of work

We had a foster a Mum Diva who ended up staying and her kittens were called Watson, Sherlock and the little girl Moriarty

Watson and Sherlock still send me cards from their new home in canada and moriarty went to another fosterer who fell in love

We suspected as much...triangular face, big pointy ears...maybe his mum was a bit of a player? ;)
