My new kitty

I just wanted to introduce my new kitty, Odo. After Spot passed on two months ago from a heart problem, Willow became lonely. I knew I wanted to find another senior boy to keep her company. I spent about three or four hours at one of the shelters yesterday before I found this boy (shelter name: Inari). I have renamed him Odo after a Star Trek: Deep Space Nine character. (Spot was named after a cat on Star Trek: Next Generation.) He's between 10 and 12 years old.

He seems to be settling in to the small bedroom okay (a little better now that I took off the cover for the litterbox so he can't hide in it. My other cat has pawed at the door a bit, and Odo doesn't seem very happy (he hissed at the door), so I think I'm going to have take introductions very slowly.

Hi ODO, and welcome to TCS!!!!!

see you on the forums!

Welcome to TCS prepare to become addicted... Also we love pictures hint hint

Welcome Odo! How nice of you to take in an older cat. He's beautiful I hope the introductions go smoother in the coming days.

He's adorable, I hope he gets through the introductions and to the best part, settling in to his new forever home with both a good human and good cat companion to enjoy.

I've been addicted for quite some time, actually. As soon as I got the pictures of him, I had to come here and create a new signature! He's actually very camera shy, and I don't want to stress him too much too soon.

He's lovely

I remember Odo he was the security guy shape changer. And Spot too, he was the androids furry friend (cant remember his name tho).

He's very handsome. I hope he and Willow become great friends!!!

Aww-hes beautiful!! Thats so cool you saved a senior kitty

Wow he is a beauty!! I'm glad you rescued him

Awww... such a good boy. Congrats on the new addition to you home.

He's gorgeous!! Good luck with the intros, and keep those pics coming!

He is a big beautiful boy! I love seeing older kits being adopted, good for you! I hope he is a lovely and comfortable addition to your home! Good luck with those introductions, please keep us updated!

Hello and welcome! What a cutie Odo is!!

The introductions are going well. Very few hisses. They came nose-to-nose this morning and then backed off without any hisses or swatting. I'm keeping them separate when I'm not home for now. I may let them roam tonight together (last night I kept Willow in the bedroom with me and let Odo roam).

Odo is such a gorgeous boy! Bless your heart for adopting this older boy, I think that's wonderful!

What a handsome fellow. Congratulations on your new addition.
