First of all, it's #1 and my "Metcha Day" today! Yes! It was exactly one year ago that #1 came to the place where I was born, looking for a kitten. She arrived determined to get herself a ruddy Abyssinian, but I took one look at her and decided she had to be mine. So, I hopped up onto her lap, even though we hadn't even been introduced, and climbed up her arm to cover her face in kisses. She was a bit amazed to start with and eventually told Uncle U "I think I have been chosen. It looks like I'm not being given any choice in the matter." It was another two weeks before I actually moved in with her, but my fate was sealed on this day, and we will forever celebrate it!
This is me on that day:
and this is me now!
I've done pretty well, don't you think?!
And now for the other BIG NEWS! #1 said she was waiting for today to tell me, as this is a day of celebration, but Tommy and I are getting a sister!!! I think many of you may have guessed this already, with all those dreams I have been having (cats are pretty perceptive, you know...) .
The little one is still with her brothers and sisters at Uncle U's at the moment, but she will be coming to live with us next week! She is the little kitten I have been seeing in my dreams!
The first photo #1 saw of her:
Pretty hard to resist, don't you think? Here are a few more:
She looks like he might be a bit of a handful, doesn't she? We will see when she gets here! And we will leave it to her to tell you all about herself once she settles in.
OOoo! WOW! You're a precognitive Sen-Chan! Tom, are you getting a puppy too?

Awwww, she's faboulous! Quite a pawful of cat she is, shaking her little paw at the camera. I can't wait to meet her.
ReplyDeleteHappy Metcha Day Sen-Chan!
Give some purrs to Tom aswell,
Siena
Ooh Sweety you're going to have one of my little fur sisters living with you! How utterly wonderful... :) I'm sure she's going to keep you very busy! Plus she's very pretty, so you'll have to be careful when she's old enough to find herself a boyfriend that she finds one as lovely as you! :)
ReplyDeleteYou better tell #1 that the Tappanyaki smelt nice on Mummy, Daddy and D'boy but they didn't bring me any home to try... It's certainly worth a visit I hear! :)
Purrs and kitty kisses,

Ha, ha, Sen-Chan, I came back to look again at your lovely sister and just noticed that your doing the question-mark-tail already in the first picture!
ReplyDeleteBtw, I do it aswell, but my human isn't fast enough to get a picture of it. The floof distract from it anyway. Professional tree-climbing the other day!
Purrs, Siena
Happy Metcha day! And I am so excited about your new little sister. She is so adorable! This is very exciting news.
ReplyDeleteDear Sen-Chan,
ReplyDeleteHappy METCHA DAY! I remember hearing from #1 on the day she met you, and how she was excited to be your Chosen One.
And a new sister coming next week?! Yep, you and Tom are going to have your paws full!
Love,
Ms. C
PS. I hope I can come visit someday so I can paint all three of you!
Z took one look at your sister and she almost ran out and got a sister for me too! Whew! I dunno whether to be relieved or disappointed that she didn't get me one. She's been itching to get a cat since seeing how nice and well behaved Sen-Chan is and now with this adorable face sharing space with you handsome dude, I have no idea how is she going to resist.

Oh Sen-Chan you are so smart about things, knowing all about what Teppan Yaki and that. Then again you're French and know lots about good cooking! :) I've heard lots about Mummy catching prawns and shrimps in Normandy as a child and how tasty they were to eat... I sure wanna try some you know!
ReplyDeleteDo tell me all about the meaning of your name, I've always thought it was Sen for Sensual and Chan for Champion! ;) Well you are gorgeous you know! :)
Purrs and kitty kisses,
Isis
