WECOME "BUDDY" TO OUR HOME

"Buddy" - is the white with black spots cat that we adopted on 10/24/2009.

Nicole is a single mom, she bought 2 kittens for her son from a pet shop ; one black & one white. After a while, her son seemed to love the black cat " Andrew" and refused to play & care for " Ralphie . She thought this is unfair to "Ralphie", so she advertised "Ralphie" for adoption online.

When I saw the picture of "Ralphie", I had the immediate instint that I have a strange bonding with the cat. I related that to my daughter and she also like the cat from the Pic. We did have one cat that had the similar look. So I emailed to her and asked if she could hold the cat for me for 2 weeks since we were about to move to a new place. She agreed knowing that we would definitely give "Ralphie" the love he deserves.

As soon as we settled in our new place, I gave Nicole a call and we went over to her house. After a brief information on "Ralphie" behaviour, we took him home . " Ralphie was born on 02/28/2009..... so he is 8 mouths old

It didn't take long for "Ralphie" to get used to our home. As I find it hard to call him " Ralphie" so we changed his name to "Buddy" We hope he can be "Buddy" to our birds.

It's almost 2 weeks now.. "Buddy" is getting very active and playful. He likes to jump up to rest on dinning table. I guess this is the habit that should be rectified.

Yesterday, we sent him to have the neuter done. He has been kneaking all the past days!! When we took him home in the evening, he could jumped up & down as usual except when he walked he lost his balance for a while.

Don & I both love "Buddy" so much that we can't wait to see him back from work. All these pets bring us so much joy and fun. They are like opur babies need a lot of love and tender care. Now, we have to divide our time to play between birds and Cat !

We hope Buddy will soon get along fine with all the 3 birds so that we don't have to take turn to lock Buddy or Forever in the room when we let the birds out for exercise !!!!

See! how naughty is "Buddy"

hiding under the stool eyeing on the birds !!

Buddy is trying his first touch on "Forever"

Not very comfortable to face the camera for the first day!

This is the bed for "Buddy" but he prefers to sleep some place else . He was trying to run away from the bed !

Finally, needed a quick nap after neutering

He likes to rest at the lanai

Still Playful like nothing ever happened after neutering!
