Integration purrs UPDATE

Dear all

The purrs have worked their magic for little Molly!

Apparently when she arrived at Jim's she bolted under the bed and
refused to come out so when Jim went out the next morning, he made sure
she had food, water and clean litter and left her locked in the
bedroom.

When he got come Benj shot past him and into the bedroom to introduce
himself to Molly. Moments later there was a good deal of hissing...all
of it from Molly. Benj apparently just looked as bemused as you'd
expect, 15lb of adult cat being hissed at by a small ball of black
fluff. After a minute of two, Benj gave her a gentle bap with his claws
in at which her bravado faded and she rolled over to expose her tummy,
Benj then proceeded to wash her....Jim decided to leave them to it and
went into the kitchen. He was a bit worried when he saw Molly come
galloping down the hallway with Benj in hot pursuit, he reached for a
cushion to part them...then Benj came flying back down the corridor
with Molly in hot pursuit!

Now they eat together, wash each other and play together, Jim says
they're like "A father and daughter". And Jim's in love with Molly too,
he was passing round photos of her like any proud slave. The three of
them even share a bed , Benj on one side of Jim and Molly on the other.

And Jim says it's made a huge difference to Benj, he's like a different
cat now he's got someone to play with. On his own, he was not much one
for playing and would just mope about but now he's behaving like a
kitten. Jim says the only thing he misses is that Benj would be there
to greet him when he came home from work, now it's 50-50 whether he'll
be waiting or off playing with Molly. Still as he says sooner or later
Benj will sit on his lap and Molly will sit on Benj or snuggle next to
him on the chair

I think it's going to be fine

This is wonderful news!  Yay!  I tend to think cats need companion cats and
this seems to be true with Benj.  I'm so happy for you and your little
fur-family.  :~)

Well it's Jim and his little fur family. Then again I'm happy with my
little fur family (and Dave). Woke up this morning to find Sarrasine
asleep on top of me, aww....I didn't want to get up and disturb her but
work beckoned.....Work is the curse of the cat-loving classes!

This is exactly what happened back in October 1988, when I brought home
Nikki.

LOL! Excellent news, for all three of them.

Awwww... what a wonderful story!  I'm glad Benj is a kitten again and Molly
has a playmate.

Sounds like SUCCESS!  Congrats! I'd love to hear more stories later

Saw Jim last night, he'd had  a day off work and he was telling me how
Molly and Benj were curled up together having their mid afternoon
snooze. He thinks it's love all round

I'm not telling the Furballs about Molly's new forever home- they might
run away- last night Jim was cooking himself a steak and he admits to
cutting a nice big chunk off for Molly.

Spoilt? Got the Hoomin wrapped around her little paw? You bet and he
loves it!
