Title: Ginny has a sister!! Added more pics!
Post by: Beth on February 08, 2009, 15:28:29 PM
:wow: I have just adopted the beautiful Penguin :Luv2: who seems so far to be the complete opposite to Ginny, she's so brave, strutted out of the carrier and made herself completely at home within seconds. :Luv: Ginny is so far less than impressed :innocent: but there's no real aggression, just fear which is making her a bit hissy. I've gone for the "chuck 'em in a room together and let them sort it out between themselves" approach which so far seems to be working ;) they're happy to be a metre or so apart anyway. 8) I found Penguin asleep on my bed a little while ago too. ;D

Sorry for the tease, but no pics yet :shy: will take lots more later and post them.

I'd like to say a HUGE thank you to Ava, and to this forum 'cos that's where i came across the thread. :Luv:

That's great news and I'm pleased little Penguin has found herself a good Purrs home.  I hope you'll keep us updated on her progress, Beth.


Any news on her siblings, do you know?

Not yet, i think if no one suitable is found then he'll stay where he is. :)

Awwww she is gorgeous,  they both are  :Luv2: :Luv2:

I done the open the carrier & let them sort it aswell, as i knew my 3 would not be aggresive, but had the odd hiss.

They are all fine, and were within the first couple of days.

Now Flora & Pod are partners in crime, then Rolo joins in the fun. So the 3 run wild & my eldest Splitz watches (they all know the score with her, let her be & all is good)

these two are definitely settling together :Luv2: we've gone from lots of hissing to batting each other on the head with a paw in a very playful way :wow: i slept with one either side of my pillow. :Luv:  Penguin has a REALLY loud purr, and she purrs herself to sleep :Luv2: so it was a very noisy but sweet night. :Luv:

I think there's about 8 weeks between them. Penguin looks bigger in the pics than she is, it's all fluff! :Luv2:

We need to put this into the Purrs rehoming success, which is the thread asking for a home?

Posted the link at the start of the thread. ;)

They're fighting lots today, :innocent: but i'm not sure how much is play and how much is actual fighting... Oh, and Ginny sprayed on my wall :doh: i've bought a feliway spray so hopefully that'll chill them out a little. :shify:
Title: Re: Ginny has a sister!! Added pics!
Post by: Beth on February 09, 2009, 21:33:33 PM
Feliway (and a little turkey bribery!) seems to have really chilled them out, and they are now playfighting, looks exactly the same as what they were doing before, but with no hissing. :)

Few more pics :Luv2:

It does sound like they are just playing, the feral siblings do that outside but they are really close  :)
Title: Re: Ginny has a sister!! Added more pics!
Post by: Beth on February 10, 2009, 08:35:52 AM
they're friends! :wow: I'm sure the feliway has helped loads. They've been playing chase games all night and are showing no signs of stopping yet :evillaugh: it's been like sharing a bedroom with a herd of baby elephants :rofl: but i'm so pleased they're getting on so well so quickly. :Luv2: Penguin is following Ginny's lead in when it's time to eat or pee which is so cute to watch. :Luv:

 :hug: how fantastic is that, I bet it's lovely to hear them playing in the night and it sounds good that Penguin has just come in and is happy to let Ginny take the lead and show her the ropes so to speak  ;D  :Luv2:
