Names names names!

What do you name a boy that likes ladies handbags and ladies dresses?


hmmm.... it's hard one!


He is not Macho cat like our Aslan,
not very territorial at all.
He is a softie, (both fur and personality!) appreciates nice handbags and my nice dresses, he ALWAYS makes effort to sit on them!

He comes to cuddle with Hime when she's sleeping!
Awwwww......!

There is something unisex about this little boy.
We figured, maybe we got a girl-y boy cat, and hey, that's fine too!

After going through many boy names that my hubby thought was cool
("You always get to name the cats so now it's MY TURN!")
they all didn't seem to fit this sweet bundle of fluff.

At the time, I was playing the band, Quicksand, a lot, rediscovering what a great band they were,
thought,
"how about 'Walter' ?"


"Walter" seemed like a great soft, gentle boy name.
I liked how the sounds rolled out from your tongue!
He looked like a Walter to me!

We call him "Walter", "Waller", "Wall-ee", and when he is being feminine, "Wallene"!
He doesn't mind either, as long as it involves eating!
He'll "prrrrrr----prrrrr" and dust your leg with his bushy tail!



So that is how we came to have Hime, Aslan, Walter ,
the Three Terror Munchkins in our family!

I just wanna be friends...!


On introducing Walter (Previously known as Simon) to our Troble Two,
we have had better idea how to do this because of our experience with Aslan and Hime.

According to some websites it said it was good to keep the new cat in one room, let the other cats smell them, but not face to face, let the previous cat get used to the smell of the new cat.


Our princess Hime, she only accepted Aslan in her kingdom after 72 hours when he first came to our house. So I decided to keep him away from her, and only let her see him after 3 days.


During the 72 hours, she was being SUSPICIOUS HIME,
trying to get in the room where Walter was.
Everytime I opened the door to where Walter was, she'd try to get in , like,


"I know what you got there!!!! And I don't like it!!!!"


seeing his shadow in the glass and pouncing at him through the glass!

This is her face to face with Walter.
She looks cute, but growwwwwwwling at him!

Walter looks sad, he is only a kitten, just wanted to be friends.He had a big family, lived with his cat mom, cat dad, and 3 cat siblings.
At Cats protection he was in the pen with his brother, always playing.

He is really friendly and gentle,
I'd be laying on the couch and he would come sit on my shoulder , put his face against mine...


"Purrrrrrrr, Purrrrrr, Purrrrrr!"



How could anybody not like him??

Well, Hime.
Doesn't tolerate her kingdom invaded by strangers,
wether how cute or purrrry they are.


Of course Aslan wasn't too happy with Walter either, but he did not rule this house. Aslan's territory was outside. So he wasn't as angry (or suspicious) as Hime to have a new stranger in the house.

Walter tries to go make friends with Aslan too, but gets a growwwl again...


It didn't look too good for Walter, but I knew Hime would come to accept Walter.
After all, she did accept Aslan. And they are best pals now!
And if Hime acceped Walter, Aslan would too.


So I let him wander around the house, just as long as Hime got her space...

Hime was napping in the afternoon sun,
Walter comes in.
I was going to stop him before Hime gets angry...

And look!


☆ Monumental moment! 

Walter quietly lies down across from her.
She opened her eyes a bit, but didn't growl. Went back to nap.

It was like,
"Ok, I let you in the family now so I'm gonna go back to sleep."

I think things like eating, sleeping front of someone is important, as bonding. We go out to meals with people we like, or want to get to know. You wouldn't like to do any of those things if you didn't feel comfortable with the person.
Hime has accepted Walter, by letting him sleep close to her.

And the rest is history.
