New kid on the block!

It was going to happen sooner rather than later. A replacement for Abraxas was going to be procured and added to the Royal-Tautorat family. Ladies and Gentlemen, Kids, grannies, tramps, bums, friends and foes alike - meet Max.



Max is small and cute, and boy does he know it. He's about 11 weeks old and into everything. There's no timidity about this little kitten at all. When they said "curiosity killed the cat", it was with cats like Max in mind! He's been named Max to go along with Moritz - apparently Max and Moritz are a famous, or infamous duo, in Germany, and it would appear they have now been exported to the UK to take up residence in our little house. Suffice to say, Moritz is not impressed with the new addition, and there will be tears and flying fur over the next few days until things settle down again. He arrived last night from the Cats Protection League, who are a wonderful and well worthwhile charity to support if you like cats, and is in fine condition. He wasn't bothered at all by being moved to yet another home and is settling in very very quickly. Right now he's crashed out on one of the beds upstairs having exhausted himself exploring the garden (which was hastily secured this morning so he can't escape its confines!) but no doubt he'll be up again soon to restart exploring his new home and causing trouble.

Welcome to the family Max, I'm sure you'll fit in just fine.
