Additions to the Bray Family

I have just realised that I have not introduced the new members of our family.

We have two cats now. The first one came in the conventional way via a Vet/Pet shop here in Westport the day after we arrived. The second one was found one morning on our Family Store doorstep and after following us home that first day he has never left and we have adpoted him.

The first cat is a black and white fluffy girl names Cindas. This name was decided on after we realised that Cinderella was just too long. We figured that if she had not fallen into cinders/ash of a fireplace she would have been a white cat.

The other cat is a short haired tabby cat and his name is Dova. This name came about because when he first arrived Emily would wander around the house and yard asking where is 'the other' (it actually came out de ova) cat and so Dova has stuck... Like glue really.

Cindas was not so keen on sharing her family to start with but the two cat negotiated terms and are now the best of friends. As evidenced by the photos below.

This is Cindas 0n the back of the couch. She also likes playing in the clothes rack when it is up trying to dry our clothes inside

This is Dova. The other cat. This photo was taken when we were making the effort to find his real home... However he now has his real home

This is the pair of them after they had negotiated terms.... They got even closer than this but the photo is not as good.
