Hi Ive just found this site...am new to cat chat! 

Sadly i lost my beloved Onyx only a few weeks ago after she developed 'breast' cancer, she was only with me for 14 months but was pampered and loved after being passed from Battersea and 2 rehoming centres...but im hoping to pick up two boys from the rescue home over the week who were found with 37 other brothers and sisters in one teeny room.

Im sure i'll be popping in here for advice, never had to deal with boy cats...let alone 2 at the same time!  :Crazy:

I have twin boys and they are soooooooooooo affectionate, they are the mostly affectionate out of my 9 cats so don't worry about boys being a problem

Oh thank you for a very warm welcome.

I picked up Onyx ashes on Friday and shed a few more tears, but the ginga boys are making me smile. Unbelievable how cats settle in to a place and the charactures come out. Chipper is the bravest and most kitten like, always wanting attention and happy to perch on anywhere possible if it means getting a stoke where as Hoggard likes the food  ;)

I think we are going to have a very happy christmas. I also have a ginger horse  so am now being referred to as having a "freedom for gingers" home  :wow:
