Thank-you Hope! I do appreciate you mentioning that.

Simba is a lot like our boy Blaze. Blaze pouts and fusses everytime we bring a different bengal in the house. It's like he thinks his whole world is coming to an end.

Since he's our show cat, he's used to all sorts of environments and lots of other cats, but he still acts like a big baby when his home is being "invaded".
After a day or two of re-assuring and extra attention, he accepts new comers like they've always been there.

Hope - congratulations on your new arrival - I can't wait to see piccies. I'm sorry that Simba is feeling a little out of sorts right now; but I'm sure in just a few days he will be wondering what all the fuss was about.

I remember when little Sun-Lee arrived home, how much care and love she needed; if anyone can get Simba out of his little foot-stomping, lip-pouting paddy then you can.

Hugs to you in the meantime because I know just what a difficult time it is

Congratulations on your new addition, Hope.
I'm glad Angel has arrived without incident and is settling in. Sorry to hear that Simba is not amused, but he'll soon see that he's still Mum's best boy, and his new sister is a playmate, not a threat. Can't wait for pics.

Welcome home, Angel/Tenshi! Poor Simba, I feel your pain! You are right, this kitty will be different than any other kitty who comes into your home. But in time, you and Angel will be best friends!

I am so happy your new baby is settling in so well. I am so glad she went to live with you! Give you little pouty boy scritches from me.

I finally had to give in and seperate her, not because SHE was having trouble adjusting, but because of SIMBA. She wants to have the freedom to roam free around the house, but Simba just isn't going to have that, at least not right now. Now that Angel is in her own seperated room, Simba is back to being his usual self. No tantrums, no growling, no hanging out in the kitchen cubbards. Ms Angel is so lonely in her isolation. When I go in to visit her, she is all over me, for loves and affection. I wish Simba would snap out of it. He's being a real stinker right now.

Hope, I am so sorry Simba is having a tantrum about his new sister. I'm sure once he gets used to the idea will be be thankful she is there. I'm sending good vibes that this happens fast!

Angel sounds lovely, Hope. I hope Simba will return to his usual self soon, and I imagine he will. But I know that it doesn't help you to hear that much at the moment. Introducing a new cat can be tough for other resident cats. But I have a feeling once they become familiar with each other they will be playing together ALL the time! Your house will become a Bengal disaster zone!

Under the cats, mostly.
Aww bless! I really hope Simba will come around - I reckon once he realizes he's stuck with her, then he'll make the best of it!!
Scritchies to all - and good vibes for everyone!

Yay!! I'm so happy she made it to her new home safely. I'm sure Simba will get over it soon, once he realizes hes not going to miss out on any of mom's love. Good luck!

Oh YAY!! I'm so glad she's home now, and settling in well!!
Sorry that Simba's being a little brat.
I'm sure he'll get over it soon, as he realizes that she's here to stay and that you still love him just as much.
