New family member


As you already know, and have seen on Facebook, Luna got a little brother. He is, actually, her real biological brother. When we wrote the owner of the parent-cats about Gaia, they told us about the litter they had. Odin and I went to see the 4 male kittens, and it was quite hard to decide which one to choose. Aslan and his black/white brother were both very interesting.. we talked about it all the way home in the car. During the visit, Aslan had shown interest from we came till we left, so we finally figured that he had picked us, not the other way around. His very handsome, dark brother had been quite indifferent towards us, and only sniffed us once. Aslan sat beside us sniffing, looking, examining all the time... so yes. Aslan was the choice.
Next problem was a name... !!! Signe wanted something she knew from a story or movie, Odin wanted something masculine and NOT cuddly and I wanted something to fit his creamy color.

Luna has been very sweet and accepting towards Aslan. She is still getting used to him here, and wants to be in charge - and he lets her. They started playing a little, but she is not taking the "mommy-role", even though he would like her to. When Luna is outside, Aslan stays close to us all the time... we need to watch where we step! - And if in doubt of where he is, we can go by sound, because he purrs so loud, that we sometimes need to say "shh"!!

Welcome to the family, Aslan.
