We are getting a new cat.

Not just any old cat, but a Chinese curse type cat, as in "May your life be interesting".

I've put a deposit down on a Bengal kitten.

We'll be picking her up at the beginning of May.



Mojo grew up around a cat, our old tabby Cricket, who was here before we got Mojo.

The boys got along pretty well, as Cricket was more the boss in that relationship.

Just before Cricket passed away, we took in Puff, because my mom was moving to Florida and she needed a new home.

Puff was about 12 at the time and lived with us for 5 years. Adjusting to Mojo took her some time, as she needed to learn how to not act like prey.

Hissing and running got Mojo riled up and Puff lost patches of fur until she learned to stand her ground.



The bengal cat...she might make MOJO have to learn to stand his ground, lol.

We'll have her crated as a kitten when we aren't able to supervise.



I'm not going to let him interact with her right away as a precaution.

Any other thoughts from anyone who's introduced a kitten into their home?
