Papu's Big Day

And so the big day arrived. Papu was rudely snatched from the safety of his family and taken to Perheemme. To us, to be a felocrat.

 He first met great-great-uncle Jura who gave him a good sniff. There was no hissing or floof tails. I was then brought in, as it is important I bond with him - I have plans that he will be my ally. I occupied his bed - it was very comfy and  I think he needs to see me as someone whom he respects.

I showed him my skills at playing, and he took this very calmly. He was mighty impressed when I peemailed though, and Äiti could see he was thinking about this being the sort of thing he wants to do when he is all big and grown up. She was not happy. I was proud.

Now the others were shut out while some napping took place. And just as The Two Devon Cats predicted, Papu snuck under Äiti's chin.

And it was also Seppo's turn to meet the new lad. We apologise for the video quality - that is purely down to Äiti and a misplaced screen protector. We think you can see a very pleasnt welcome and a very confident hiss.

So far, Papu has settled well. He has not been phased out at all but he has not yet met the girlcats or Pekka or Sampo. Äiti is taking this slowly. Roosa's gift to us all was giving us her room so that these introductions could happen one by one, and even though we miss her, we are very grateful for the space.

I am also grateful for kitten food - it is so yummy. Very yummy.
