Hi all,

We're in the USA

Here are a few pics!

My golden eyed Murphy

And our yet to be named stray (who is just called 'cat' at the moment!)

Welcome to TCS!


What beautiful kitties!
Good thing we already have seven and I don't know where you live - Winston might be ours.
(We have a "thing" for B&W kitties! ).

...and the stray you are bringing inside is gorgeous! I always wanted a soft gray kitty. None found their way here though (and now I hope none do LOL).

I wouldn't be in a rush to name him - I'm sure a name will come. All of ours are named after movie characters that "fit" their personalities.
Oh - well - one of them is a cartoon character.


But here's a list that might help!

The males of the scandinavian variation of the russian blue are supposed to look mean, by the look of their face.... Although they are kind and sweet practically everyone...

Thus both Sharky and Swede may come into question.




IF he does have some russian blue in him - the russians are supposed to be meagre. They are usually slender than the average moggie.

A moggie in good condition should be somewhat fat.
A RB in good condition should be muscular, slender, sleek, and almost no fat...


Good luck and much joy with your new furry household member!

Welcome to you and your 3 beautiful kitties to TCS.

Your 'no name' kitty reminds me so much of my Tino.

Winston looks like a little ham.

Why do black and white cats love to show their bellies?


Very cute kitties! Thank you for the introduction and WELCOME!

Thanks everyone!


I just wanted to add, that I finally remember my old login/pw so they linked this post from the new account to it


We decided to call 'No Name' Charlie!

Bellaandme ~ Winston is always laying like that airing his no peas and carrots lol. You'll be walking along and he'll just drop in front of you like that for a belly rub, sending you flying!! He also chases his tail

Hi and welcome to TCS
!

Your cats are absolutely gorgeous! And, before I even say anything else, please know that we'll definitely be needing additional pictures of your crew.

Murphy's eyes are beautiful. And, you're a terrific photographer. My Finnegan has eyes similar to Murphy's eyes and I can never get pictures that capture his eyes the way that you caught Murphy's eyes. He looks like he's a curious fellow and perhaps full of mischief as well. If that's true, you've captured his personality 100%. And, I love his little grey beard -- so cute!

Winston looks like he's begging for a huge belly rub right there. I love cats who flop down and show their tummy. And, his is a furry belly indeed! He looks like such a little love (and, from what you've shared, I get that he is a lover boy). I wish I could just reach through the computer screen and stick my face right into that furry tummy
!

And, Charlie -- what a handsome guy. It's funny, when I first saw that you were looking for name suggestions for him, Charlie came to me and I was going to include it in my post. But, you've beat me to it! I hope you're able to get him inside soon as he looks like he'd make a wonderful addition to your home.

I look forward to seeing more of you (and your kitties!) around the forum. Welcome, welcome and enjoy your stay!

Aww thanks! I love to take photos of them and my little girl. I have yet to get one of all 4 of them together tho as she gets really excited when she sees them and as any 8 month old would, tries to grab them. They are a lot faster than her tho lol. Although their world has been rocked because she discovered she could crawl on Sunday.


Re Murphy, the only good pictures I've got of his eye is when he's outside on his runner in natural day light. The flash don't really show it so well. And yes .. he is 100% trouble!! He acts like he has never been fed in his 3 years of life and scrounges *everything* from Doretios to carrots. He is a total dustbin when it comes to food. One day my Grandpa-in-law was over and he was sitting on the sofa eating a BBQ chicken drumstick, Murphy hopped up on the sofa and snatched it out his hand! He's so naughty lol. He was never like this until we sent him to the vets one day to have his do das chopped off and he had to go with out food for 24 hours .. ever since then he's been a total gannet! He also loves to get in my pantry and empty all my plastic shopping bags everywhere and make a nest!


Winston .. this cat thinks he's a dog
He chases his tale, always has his belly up in the air, he wrestles with you and will sit and give you his paw for food (Murphy does that sometimes) He is a bit more calm than Murphy and just does his own thing!

Charlie .. I'm still learning his personality. He is very friendly tho, he licks! LOTS!! Then there's the 'fainting goat' actions, to where if you walk in and he wants his belly rubbed, he'll go stiff as a board and just topple over with a thud and stick his legs in the air ready.


I'm slowly starting to introduce him to the boys! It's going well so far, I'm about to update with some piccies
You can see the progress here if you're interested!! Bringing a stray inside with 2 indoor cats
