There's no place like home
If I were to pick a dream cat, it would be a huge, long haired red tabby colored Manx. I was owned by a Manx once, and yes, he was very much a people cat. At 18 pounds, he would shoulder ride for hours at a time if you let him.

And I like the name Mel Gibson!
Congratulations on your adoption!!

Thanks everybody! I got a couple of brushes for the kids to groom him with today - his coat is actually amazingly groomed...just a few little mats near the back.

Our only little glitch with him right now is that at around 4:30 am he gets up and wanders around the house, yowling. He's very quiet during the day, silently following us all over but at night decides it's time to talk!

Hopefully it's just because he's still a little out of sorts...

He is a beautiful cat, I don't think I've seen such a huge ruff on a cat before. Look forward to hear more about your 2 kitties.

As a matter of fact, we have tossed Leo around! We were thinking something around Lion King, Leo the Lion, Leopold (maybe cuz it's like Leo) or.....and I do like this one....King Arthur! Or Arthur for short. Youngest dd suggested Max.
Will keep you all posted since it is still up for debate.

The kids have taken to calling him Gib Gib or Gibby so we may have to move on the name thing soon before we have a Lion cat named Gib Gib!!
