Welcome Tex!

Foster kitty Tex
Such amazing markings!

Tex just joined our foster family! He is Sylvie’s brother, and the farmer described them as “inseparable,” so we felt he should stay with her. He just arrived today, and is adorable!

Foster kitty Tex and the mirror
Tex meets the extremely handsome kitty in the mirror.

He was brought from the farm, neutered – and quarantined for a couple of days at a different house because he had lice. Now he and Sylvie have both been treated, so he’s able to join her.

He is also very strong and athletic! George tried him with the Cat Dancer and he went nuts! He was bursting with pent-up energy and was thrilled to have a game to burn some of it off.

Sylvie doesn’t seem to feel any urge to reunite with her brother while he’s in high-energy mode. Sensible kitty.

He seems to understand about a lot of things: what toys are for, what doors are for, and that you should be gentle with humans.

So Sylvie is in the Jiro Palace, and Tex has the run of the big room the Palace is in. They can talk through the bars, and when I’m in the room I open Sylvie’s doors so she can join him – but so far she has just watched.
