Thread: Thistleglen Teddy Boy

Well, he's finally here! I haven't been able to get on here sooner because I've been crazy busy and just haven't had the time. It's also awfully difficult to tear myself away from him to type this! He has a thing for laptops though so if he weren't sleeping, I'm sure he'd be helping me type!

We picked him up around lunchtime yesterday and our breeder told us they'd decided his pedigree name would be Thistleglen Teddy Boy. It's so retro - I love it! (god, I sound like a twat here - typical student, eh?). He was quite happy to sit in the carrier whilst in the house but it was a different story when we left! He wasn't fussed about the train journey at all! We finally got home around three.

I was expecting him to be pretty quiet for the first few days and while he has been at times, particularly yesterday, he's also been happily playing and loves napping next to us as well as having snuggles. He didn't start eating much until this evening and he seemed to have something wrong with his eye but it looks better now. We're going to the vets in the morning so if there is a problem, I'm sure they'll let us know!

He and Dave are best friends and Dave's parents met him today - they decided he's pretty lovely even if he is a cat! His sister hasn't ventured over yet.

He loves his toy mice and running from one end of our lounge through the hall and into the kitchen - it's a straight route so he can get a good run at it. He doesn't like us leaving the room he's in but the flat is small so he's learnt how to find us when he can't actually see us. Unless we're in the loo in which case he sits outside and anxiously awaits our return from the mystery land of the bathroom!

I have photos and videos which I will upload soon!
