On the subject of best buds...


This is Rocky, one of our other Maine Coons. This shot was taken when Rocky was about 15 weeks old, almost 3 years ago. He and Ozzie were best friends. Every morning, before even jumping on our bed, Rocky would greet Oz with a croaky meow and would scent mark him around his great head. Oz would respond by gently but firmly nudging Rocky over onto his back and would nuzzle and lick his belly. Good morning, to you, too!

Two days after bringing Rocky home from our breeder, Sharmani (very good and dear friends, Sharon and Manny Strauch in Mt. Albert) www.sharmani.com, he decided that he wanted to meet Oz who was, of course, quite curious about the latest addition to the household.

As is his character he jumped over a baby gate, dashed up to Oz, scent marked Ozzie's muzzle, wrapped himself around an enormous leg and that was it! Assimilation.
