Welcome boys!
I never done a post to explain how we ended up with Loki and Leo. Or to welcome them to our family.
I was having an average week at work. We just happened to have a Devon Rex cat in for a procedure. It was either on the Monday or Wednesday. I can’t even remember what it had done. All I remember is the other nurses commenting on how I like weird breeds. I remember being encouraged to get a pet.
My other half, Nathan, randomly googled Devon Rex cats for sale. He just happened across Loki and and Leo on Gumtree. We both commented on how cute they were and thought nothing more about it.
By the Friday, Nathan had rechecked their selling post and the owner was willing to sell them separately. Loki and Leo were cuddling in their pictures, we couldn’t imagine them going to separate homes.
Come Saturday we found ourselves travelling to London to go meet them. We had obviously asked questions, but there seemed to be no doubt we were going to collect them. Those 2 were coming home with us, without a hesitation.
The lady who owned them was adopting and the baby she was taking on was allergic to animals. It was a tricky situation and I have never felt more awkward, but I fell in love with them the moment I saw them. Leo was more adventurous, trying to chew my shoelaces, while Loki hid under his blanket.
We committed there and then. The lady was nice enough to give us all their belongings and they made the journey with us back to Eastbourne. The first night was awful. Loki would just hiss and swipe at everything that moved, even his older brother Leo. We stayed up the entire night to keep them company and try to get them to settle.
They finally got there, though it was quite eventful. But we now know we made the right decision.
I want to welcome Loki and Leo to the family officially. It might be a madhouse at times, but we will love them unconditionally ♡
