Kwame


Let the fun begin !
Kwame is now home and has met Malaika, Tom and Jerry.
His Kennel name is Memetuka Kiraka which is Swahili for spot of colour. You will see why from his pictures.

Sleeping with his brother and sister before we set off


In the car




Home


Meeting Malaika




He's driven Malaika to drink


They look fierce on the pictures but this is how Basenjis play

He was a lot more wary of Tom and Jerry but i'm sure we will need the spray bottle before long.

Re: Kwame


Thanks for explaining that's how they play because it does look fierce!

Hope everything settles very soon. I always feel a bit sorry for a kitten or a puppy leaving their mum and litter mates, it must be so scary.

I must admit i felt a bit tearful at taking him away from his mum and siblings so i know just what you mean Angie.
He's now fast asleep on my knee snoring, Malaika has just given him a quick poke to try and wake him up. She thinks he's her new toy.

Re: Kwame


That pic of her baring her teeth at the little one was quite upsetting; so glad to hear it was just play-aggression! Awaiting the Tom and Jerry intro pics!

Yes i knew people may think that Eileen. Basenjis are very physical when they play. Presently he is snoring in his crate, Malaika has poked him several times through the bars to try and wake him up.
We did a video when they met the Cats but as yet haven't taken any pics.
Tom is sprawled asleep on the floor and Jerry in the kitchen.
Kwame is quite respectful at the moment, especialy of Jerry, it's as if he sensed danger.
