Hi Cuties! I'd like to introduce you to the newest member of our family. His name is Boo and he joined his forever home today. He is 9 weeks old and we brought him home from the shelter. Miss Mocha is not too happy, she is sulking downstairs and won't come near him, yet. I know after she gets to know him they'll be great playmates as Boo is an affectionate and playful little bundle.

He reminds me so much on my beloved little flea. Same look and size and has he a white spot on his chest? She died nearly 10 years ago and I never wanted another cat after her...
Greetings, Bettina

Yes, Boo has a little white patch on his chest. Getting another cat after you've lost such a treasured member of the family is hard. We got Mocha about 8 years after we lost our dear Einstein.

He looks happy to have a home. He reminds me of a female cat I had growing up. Her name was Cinder because she looked like a cinder when my Dad pulled them out of the old coal stoker furnace we had. She was not black, but charcoal. My first grade teacher gave her to me and she died while I was in college. So you see how long I had her. Kay

One of my previous cats was named Sally and she was all grey (not quite charcoal). We had her for 16 years and still miss her.

We love cats - had 2 in the past that lived to very ripe old ages (18 and 16).

We were looking at a white one too and I'd have called him "Boo" too :-)

I think so. He LOVES attention and when he gets out of eyesight he yells like crazy until you call him.

I do too. There was also an all white cat that we were looking at and I'd have called him "Boo" too :-)

Aww, he reminds me of my super sweet beloved Solomon. My oldest son just HAD to have a cat and well, before he went off to college (many states away) we got one from the rescue center. Solomon was the sweetest kitty ever! I really believe they know how much they were wanted and show their love and appreciation more so because they were rescued! So happy for you and your family. Mocha will come around and love the little fur ball. My (yes, Solomon became mommies boy) loved our Mini Schnauzer and was with him face to face until my Schnauzer took his last breath. Sadly, Solomon joined my Einstein shortly thereafter. Your little Boo looks exactly like Solomon! Happy home, happy hearts!

Thanks. We used to have a cat named Einstein too! :-) He was with us for 18 years and we still miss him and his antics.

I hope so too. Mocha will have so much fun once she accepts him.

He already looks like he has claimed his home. I hope Boo and Mocha become fast friends quickly and they have many years of fun together.

Mocha is starting to growl at him and is starting to get curious, so playtime should start in a week or so.
