New cats

[mafief]

My friend is moving to New Zealand(!) to be an plant breeder who creates new varieties of apples. He has two cats that were not going to make the trip to New Zealand. Instead they have come to live with me. Mr Five has wanted to name a cat Chester (we have no idea why), and one was renamed Chester. The other Mr Seven named Loki. Loki and Chester look identical, so we've put collars on them so we can tell them apart. Mr Seven had a virtual pet show for his class and the cats won most identical.

They are cuddle cats and love to be on your lap or sleeping with you in bed. I am very thankful we got them and they've been keeping me company.



There are more pics of the on Flickr. If you click on any of them pics, it'll bring you to them.

Aw. Kitties!

They are sleeping on me right now. Such good boys.

Swww, they're adorable!

[mafief]

Aren't they? I absolutely adore them.

Aw such sweet kitties. And you can't possibly disturb them when they're asleep ;)

[mafief]

Totally can’t disturb. Darn, can’t get to the thing because there is a cat on me. Oh well. ;)

Could "Chester" be a reference to the Cheshire Cat? - Chester being the main city of the county of Cheshire. Has Mr Five being studying British geography behind your back? ^___^ It's a cool name, anyway.

I had a look at some more pictures - Chester and Loki really do look exactly the same. I take it they're siblings? And they are indeed adorable ^___^

Lol. He’s totally a secret Anglophile.
I’m impressed that that’s the name he chose. At that age my creativity was limited to naming my cat Fuzzy.

Before collars, my husband thought the same cat was seeing him over and over and thus super needy. He realized later it was two cats.

They are brothers. There are subtle differences between them that we are just starting to see. But, I have a hard time telling them apart in the pics.
There synchronized sleeping cracks me up. I’m looking forward to snapping more of them doing the exact same thing.
