Excellent - I was about to give my advice that two cats are better than one, but you’ve taken care of that already. My next bit of advice, which I’m sure most people ignore, is to train your cats to not sleep in the bedrooms at night. Most of the complaints people have with their cats could be alleviated by this. Cats are perfectly happy sleeping on the couch or their pet beds or wherever - they don’t need to be roaming all over you every night, getting your bed full of hair.
Good for you, WordMan. May you and your son and your new kitties enjoy a long and happy life together!
Congrats on adding Will & Grace to your family ! Waiting with anticipation for pics !
Now… you just need to add Jack & Karen…
Excellent–congratulations!
We wound up getting two when we adopted from our vet’s office. There was one shy little sweetie that really liked Mr. m, and there was an outgoing one that we thought would be a good companion for our Pixel. Our vet saw that we were having trouble deciding, so he said we could have them both for one adoption fee. They all get along great, and I’m glad we took them both. I bet you’ll be happy with your two as well–they’ll be good company for each other and fun to watch together.
Another update: They are great with my kids (I have a younger daughter, too). Will & Grace are very patient and have not clawed or bit, even when picked up incorrectly. They are already using the litter box in the spot where we have it and they seem to really be taking to the house.
They fell asleep on each other (Will’s head resting on Grace) on my son’s bed last night. I woke up at 2am with Will kneading the pillow next to me, purring like a madman and licking my face. I think he thinks he’s home.
Awwwww!
I second that Awwwwww!!!
Glad to hear your kitties, your kids, and your household are getting along well. Congratulations on your new family members.
(I have a kitty named Grace too–a little Russian Blue kitten. My Grace wishes your Grace (and Will, too!) all the best. )
Isn’t waking up with kitties purring in your bed the coolest thing ever?
I love a story with a happy ending!
Without further ado, here are a couple of photos;
Pretty cute, eh? They have been great so far: consistently use the litter box, scratching nothing they shouldn’t, very affectionate and patient with the kids and they tend to rotate through whose bed they sleep on so we each get a couple of hours a night. And when they’ve had too much of the kids, they have a spot under our bed where they lie down cuddled together. Just great.
What a gorgeous pair of kitties you have there! I love Will’s coloring, especially when paired with those amber eyes. Glad to hear that they’re working out well for you and the whole family.
Awwwwwwwww.
About time you made with the pics!
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. What a pair of cuties!
Trio – that’s a pretty cute humanoid in the first pic!
Hey silenus - YOU try jamming a cat into your scanner and get them to hold the pose! If I didn’t have duct tape, you wouldn’t even have gotten these pics!!
And twicks - thanks for the nod for my son - I think he’s kinda cute…
Will & Grace continue to amaze - they continue to make the rounds every night so everybody gets a couple of hours with them hanging out. And they are so patient with the kids…really great.
What adorable kitties ! It sounds like they are settling right in. Best wishes for your whole little family !
