Long story as to why we didnt end up getting bow and arrow (for those of you who have read previous threads of mine) but everything worked out for the best. my son just loves them, and they love him too-they follow him everywhere!

Oh gorgeous! It is a conspiracy tonight- we have three black or black and white cats and much as I love them all dearly I would love a tabby or a ginger cat.
(Keep saying it, 3 cats is enough)

Stunning! They look so handsome yet their faces are full of charecter. Mischievious yet gentle.
Loving the names too. I am a firm believer of children growing up with animals. Bet your son is truly made up.

Lovely - and I like the Italianate names :) You'll certainly get a pizza the action with those lovely boys.
How's the raw feeding going? Maybe worth a new thread in Feeding?
Oh my goodness. *covers Darcy's and Minsky's ears* They are simply GORGEOUS. I've always wanted a Ginger tabby, and those two are simply divine. You must be so happy, your son certainley looks so!

Ah thanks everyone for your kind comments. As for the raw feeding, my mum has just been out and bought me 9k kitten dried food and 36 tins, so till they are used up i will just introduce it as a treat in between meals, so at least they can get used to it.
Just thought i would tell you all about the last few days with them:
Mario (ginger+white bib) is very laid back, he loves to ly in my lap when im sprawled out on my corner sofa,(which is where we are both now!) he loves to grip your hand in between his two paws and just lick! He loves to sniff my dogs nose! Which my dog finds most amusing!
Luigi (white+ginger tail) is very independant, tho in bed it is he who wants to sleep with my arm around him, while mario is at my feet!When Luigi gets your hand its to nibble, which i dont allow him to do incase he gets too used to it!, but they both love to play.
When they play together my son loves to sit and watch them (he would join them but they roll around biting each other!)
The house has become so much fun! The love their 7 tier scratching post and love to perch on the top one and sleep! When they are on my bed they have a blanket for them and they love to curl up together and wrap each others front legs around each other, it is so lovely to see.
I will post some more pics over the week.

Hi everyone, i found out the history on mario and luigi:- the owners had not got their two cats 'fixed' and ended up having an unwanted litter, and cared for them for 8 weeks till they were old enough to leave their mum and took them to a sanctury. A few people have told me that they look 'x siamese'. maybe its just the way they are looking at the camera, not sure. what du guys think? THANKS X

Really spooky you should just say that. I have just been looking at the pics and seen them for the first time and seriously my first thought was 'there's Siamese or oriental in them somewhere' Gorgeous boys, congratulations!

No real way of knowing. Enjoy them for what they are, they are lovely :cool:
What super fellas :-D It sounds like they have made themselves firmly at home at yours . . . which is great news.
I have a cat that will grab my hand with her paws and lick/nibble. It's so delightful when the do that and she's always very careful not to hurt :-)

Ah thank you for all your kind words. They have only been with us a month, but it feels like much longer as they have setted in so well. I have some pictures of them sharing the dogs bed all cuddled up!
They are amazing cats, so loving and playful!
