I would like to introduce everyone to Magnum. He is a spotted bengal from Kai Bengals! Of course I couldn't possibly leave Takoda out of any pictures.


Picture was taken at the hotel our first night.



Takoda went along for the drive. He really wasn't impressed with Magnum at all. He would much rather kill the paper-towel roll.
He was expressing his disgust with his new little brother!



Driving home Magnum slept the whole way! He was an Angel.



Takoda on the other hand was a pill!!! He complained the whole time! I think he was trying to talk us out of bring home the new baby!




As soon as we arrived home Takoda did a 180 in behavior and took to Magnum like he was his new best friend!




Here they are my beautiful bengal boys!

Congrats on your new sweet baby
Oh, I have a few that aren't at all happy with the newest addition. I pulled out everything I had to make introduction as painless as possible.

From Vanilla under the chins, to the Bach's rescue remedy on the ears, to my feliway plug-ins. I even played the oldest trick in the book late last night and placed Magnum in between my legs on the floor and brought out the treats. Trying to make everyone associate Magnum with good stuff.
I normally do one or all of these things every day.

I have 7 jumbo rubbermaid containers. It takes one box of litter to fill each one up. I have a normal size house but I have one area enclosed outside for my cats to go back and forth and we are starting another screened room outside my bedroom window for the cat as well. I also have a screened in patio that they have supervised time because it has a large dog door and they know how to use it. I have 3 huge cat trees located in various areas in the house and you can always find someone on one.

I tell my sons that as they move out each room will be dedicated as a cat play area!

I can't get over how big Takoda is getting now too!


The picture of them snuggling is adorable


Congratulations on the new addition, Eva

Oh my
look at those handsome boys, you are so lucky
and how wonderful that Takoda behaved himself, maybe he knew where Magnum had come from
