Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / August 2005Claudius is here (Pics up too)
I brought him home yesterday lunchtime. Only 1 miaow during the 40-minute journey, which he spent snuggled up in the nearest corner to me of the large-dog-sized carrier. Raki the d-pet rushed up to greet me as I hefted the carrier indoors. Claudius hissed, arched his back and fluffed himself up when confronted by such a comparative giant. Raki left in a hurry & returned to his kennel under my desk. After a bit of exploration I let Snowball meet the newbie. Claudius hissed, arched, etc., so Snowball hissed back. C stopped, but S has carried on ever since. I think this friendship is going to take a while. (Note from Snowball: I know I told you to get me a new kitten playmate but not THIS one, he's too feisty!) Then it was time for the intro to Bandit. B, bless him, is a sweet & friendly soul and touched noses & sniffed like a good 'un. Later he even shared a dish of cooked fresh chicken pieces with C - no hisses or spats whatever. He even allowed his tail to be ambushed several times. Same again today, with just 1 warning when C got too importunate & playful. I can see this working out OK. C (full name Tempestuous Claudius Destructivus as he's already tried sabotaging the phone and computer lines {his Roman namesake was Tiberius Claudius Drusus}) is a real fireball, but thankfully in fairly short bursts. He's peeing and pooping regularly and tidily and is a real smurglebunny, loving to cuddle up under my chin & groom my beard [aaawww]. The first batch of piccies are up, ten to twenty, over 2 pages: http://community.webshots.com/album/96231890DCfOgQ Enjoy!

Claudius is a gorgeous little guy, Gordon. Lucky you. =o) It sounds as if he might be a potential Hoolikitten, as well. Congratulations on and to the newest member of your family!

Sounds like a lively addition to the household, and Bandit is so sweet for being patient with him. I'm sure Snowball and Raki will come round in time. Deb.

Bandit really is a sweetheart, isn't he? I hope Frank is like that to Leo. He was very friendly towards Miranda's brother Emil when they first met on the island, but then Emil is a very non-aggressive young lad. (He mostly rolls over whenever another cat approaches...) Oh, can't wait to get leo home. I'm sure he would like to compare notes with Claudius (and you can only blame yourself for giving him such a name. That's just tempting fate).

That's just tempting > fate). Today Snowball's still as unhappy as ever but I expect he'll settle down eventually. I've re-read my Suetonius (The Twelve Caesars) in the Robert Graves translation rather than the Latin - I've forgotten all that - that inspired his books "I, Claudius" and "Claudius the God" and compared to what went before and came after he was a wonderful chap. So I'm not afraid. Yet. :-) Purrs for the settling in of your tribe (I always think it should be a Chaos of Cats) Gordon & the FF aw, he's adorable!
