My six month old Brown Marble Tabby Bengals arrived home late saturday evening after a long flight. They've been a little shy, but they're coming around more and more every day. Duke can't wait to meet them.

They actually let me get close enough to get a few pics of them tonight. Nothing as spectacular as Nials Matrix shots, but hopefully we'll get to be extras one day!


Anyway, I had to sneak these while they were eating.

Ares:




Dreamer:




Both of them, though you only really see Dreamer:




More to come as they start feeling a little more photogenic!

Six months, and the pictures don't do them justice. Maybe you'll meet them at a show some day?

They're both fantastic Tiffany! Real beauties.

They still look a little unsure about their new environment, but at least they're out in the open now. Looks like you're making steady progress!

Thanks Nial. They actually look unsure mostly because I had just let them out of their room to eat and Duke was in my bedroom scratching at the door. Seems he can't wait to meet them! LOL!

This morning Ares came up to me and licked my hand. We're making progress, slowly but surely.

Thanks! Dreamer has a nicer coat than Ares, but Ares' face is just irresistable!


And yeah, the glitter makes them look like their glowing. Gives them a 3D effect. Dreamers got that sparkly glitter down her back too.

I also found out last night that they really can't resist a wand toy. I have a swizle mouse (the leopard print one behind Ares in the first pic) and they LOVE that thing! I had it sitting in front of the door, and they dragged it in the room with them and started all kinds of ruckus!

Oh, and Dreamer is a climber.

A few more pics:

Ares playing (though Dreamer was playing too, she's too much of a priss to let me catch her playing)

How things progressing with Duke & introductions
Duke and Ares get along well. They play a lot together and last night I found them both asleep just a few feet from each other on the bed. I did have to separate them this morning though, because Duke tackled Ares and the latter wasn't too thrilled about that. Had to give my meezer baby a time out! LOL!

Dreamer doesn't like for Duke to get too close to her, but as persistent as he is he is also patient. She will growl or hiss at him and before I can even get to them to intervene Duke will just stop advancing and lay down. He will swipe at her when she turns her back though, so I still have to keep an eye out for them.

I don't want to intervene too much, as I know they have to find their pecking order, but I dont want them fighting or stressed either. And intricate dance, for sure.
