Tolly and Queen Eva, playing already

otto · Aug 22, 2010

These taken yesterday, in sequence....I love the first two I wish I could have caught Tolly's leap in between, but you can get the gist of how he leaped over her as she jumped to grab him (for sound effects, you have to imagine Tolly saying mrrrUP with each jump he made)

(Queen Eva has been here one week, as of this morning)

Awwww, how heart warming it must be to watch them playing together! Precious!

Another Game played last night:

Queen Eva has discovered the Box Fort....

Awwwwww!! The Queen looks so tiny! I'm so happy she is settling in nicely.

Oh my!! Such CUTE pictures! I love the 3rd pic with Tolly ontop of the scratching post

stephanietx · Aug 22, 2010

That's so great! I'm glad she's settling in and making new friends.

Thanks for looking everyone. Queen Eva is just a joy. Tolly loves her. Mazy is coming around. Jennie is still cursing and swearing but Queen Eva figured out pretty quick that Jennie's potty mouth doesn't mean anything.

I'm going to have to update my siggy!

That made me laugh out loud!!

Jennie... all talk and no action, huh?

Yes, Jennie has a real trash mouth. I guess it's from surviving on her own for who knows how long and raising a family of four all by herself.

When she first came here the other cats were quite taken aback at her language.

Then one day.....she was dressing down Tolly something terrible. He was just sitting there, staring at her in astonishment as she hissed and spat and growled and swore.

Suddenly, in the midst of a particularly blistering harangue....she yawned. It was HILARIOUS! and no one took her seriously after that.

She's toned it down some, but has never completely lost the habit.

That made me laugh out loud again.

I can only imagine what it's like for those of you who actually have Talkers among you. The most I can get out of Holland is a quiet "prrrrt!" when I ask her if she's hungry/ready to eat.

If it weren't for that little sound I would swear she's mute.

otto · Aug 23, 2010

My Sissy (rb 12/97) and my Bibbs (rb 3/05) were quiet kitties but most of my others, Bridge Angels and present, were/are talkers.

Tolly, Mazy and Jennie always have a lot to say. Queen Eva so far only talks when she is cuddling me, and she has a lot to say then, in a funny crackly voice, but is quiet when she is playing or investigating.

(When I am doing something to her she objects to, she screams in deafening tones)

darkmavis · Aug 23, 2010

Aww, little Eva is settling in so nicely!!

I'm glad Tolly has accepted her at least as a playmate. Keep the pics coming!

otto · Aug 23, 2010

Oh Erica, if you could only see this....Tolly is sick this morning and Queen Eva is beside herself with concern over him. Every time he goes down to the litter box and has more diarrhea and then the subsequent vomiting, she hurries down too, to watch over him.

He is now curled up here on my lap. Queen Eva, wanting to be near him tried to get on my lap too, but she kept slipping off, so she has squeezed herself on top my desk as close to Tolly as she can get.

He just now went into a stretch and Queen Eva gave one of her funny crackly meows, and reached both front paws out to touch him on the chest.

Wait! She's trying again, and I snapped it on my webcam!

will post it in a sec

LOOK WHAT IS ON MY LAP!

larussa · Aug 23, 2010

Cute pics, they sure are having fun playing.

darlili · Aug 23, 2010

Aww, what a loving heart she has - surely you were all blessed to find each other.

myfamiliars · Aug 23, 2010

It's great that Queen Eva has a playmate already. And, so touching that she's concerned about him. I hope Tolly feels better soon. The two of them together in your lap is just precious.

Tolly and Queen Eva, playing already
