Friend Or Foe?

Paz and Thor. They are just so alike. Paz was exactly like Thor when he was a little kitten.
Thor was kept in a small apartment in a room as there were two females, and no one was spayed. The females were in a room next to his room, and they , of course, were going crazy as they could smell eachother. He was going to be put down because of this, but he's been chopped, and now calm.

I thought he'd be a sprayer like Paz, who had his nuts when he was found by someone in their yard, and brought to Cats Protection. Paz wanted to go out too. Paz still sprays even with his nuts cut off, so I guess it depends on the cat.
Paz is used to being the alpha male. (the Real alpha in our house is Hime!) He'd hit everyone, so everyone used to get out of the way. Thor is younger and strong. Hmmm....

Thor

We visited Cats Protection. Zum and us we love spending time in there. The facilites are beautiful, theres lots of green and flowers, and LOTS OF CUTE CATS!

Sarah at Cats Protection knew that Shane wanted a Maine Coon for a long time. She said, "Show them Thor. He's beautiful."
So the lady brought us to the back, and there he was.


As soon as I saw his face and his big big paws

 I knew Shane would be in love.
Shane loves big cats. And stripey longhairs. Well, basically Main Coons. Though we have never seen an actual Main Coon. Thor looks like he is a Main Coon cross, with really big paws and big fluffy head, but his fur is sleek, unlike Mieszky , who has soft fuzzy long hair.
He has cute eyeliner eyes.
Let me outa here, I want to go out!!!

 Thor was dying to get out of the cage. He was just like Kitten Paz when I met him here, almost 8 years ago.
I stroked him, and Shane stroked him. He was friendly. Zum wanted to stroke him too.
Many cats who have never been around children get scared. But not Thor. He was totally fine when Zum stroked him, and didn't seem to be surprised if she made loud noises.
Our house seemed very quiet with only 4 cats now, so the decision was made.

We mulled it over again once we got home, and it still made sense.
We went to go pick him up two days later. Zum was saying his name too.
Welcome to our house, Thor.


Zumzum saw them together, and said, "Its the same!!!" Yes they look like brothers, don't they?
