Title: Hello!
Post by: OnlyMe1 on May 16, 2016, 08:40:30 AM
Hello everyone!

I'm Jayne, 56, live in West Yorkshire and have two boisterous boys, Arthur and Aslan. I think you'll be able to work out who's who from the photo and their colouring! They are 10 months old and completely different to the other cats we have had; Lucky (who wasn't so...) was our first cat, I saved her life when she was born in the sack and mum wasn't attempting to get her sorted, cut the sack and revived her. But, she was knocked down and killed at a year old. Our next cat Phoebe, was from CPL and I made certain she was a house cat. She was a feisty princess and lived until she was 13 when bowel cancer took her from us. Two days after she passed my daughters' cat Patch (she's part Maine Coon) had two kittens, I was adamant that we wouldn't have one... 8 weeks later we brought Arthur and Aslan home!

They are completely different in personality. Arthur is outgoing, adventurous and daft as a brush; Aslan is slightly more timid, less adventurous and very clever! He plays fetch and will sit on command. We're slowly trying to teach him more things.

Thank you! Oh don't let Aslan hear you calling him ginger, he's very touchy about that, he's a blonde boy  ;) He's my daughter's boy and the name was chosen because he's lion coloured. As a kitten he was a lovely pale, apricot colour.
Arthur is mine and yes, a proper ginger ninja! I love him to bits, always wanted a ginger, but never managed to have one "choose" me.  :Luv2:

I think Aslan is probably 'strawberry blond'  ;D

My Chivvy was quite a dark ginger (hence the name 'Chivers' cos they make marmalade)

Love Chivvy's name.

You didn't offend at all, just my humour  ;) Honestly, if you saw Aslan in life, you'd see that he's more sandy than ginger. Arthur on the other hand is a true ginger  ;D

Thank you! Aslan is my daughter Laura's cat and she loves both lions and The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe so with him being lion coloured it made sense to call him after the mighty Aslan  :Luv:
