I lost the love of my life 2 months ago. Ka - zar was 15 and I lost him to mouth cancer. I had three weeks without a cat and then caved since I could stand the house without a cat anymore. I live just down the road the RSCPA pet place and wasn't totally sure if the time was right but went ti just have a look. Well I didn't just have a look I adopted a beautiful 9 weeks at the time of adoption now three months old domestic  short hair tabby cross named Banjo loved the name so it has suck.

After having the one cat for 15 years I forgot what it was like to have a kitten but Banjo is reminding me and I am loving every minute for it for the most part he's a good boy but he does have his devil moment like all kittens do. I am looking forward to learning more about my handsome little man.

Oh my gosh--your story is so much like mine--I lost my "only child" Skittles at 17-1/2, and thought I might not survive the loss.  Three weeks later, I was on the SPCA website looking at kitties.  It was a shock going from having a sedate 17+ year old prima donna to having two Tasmanian devil kittens.....  Now, four years later, we have 7 cats but that's another story.  

I'm sorry for the loss of your baby Ka-zar, and welcome you and your new love, Banjo.

Hi there, and welcome. Sorry for your loss
How exciting..a new little kitty! [emoji]9829[/emoji] I am in Australia too. Look forward to seeing some more pics of the little one. X

Hi! I'm in Australia too and a new poster here also! Sorry for your loss of your kitty and congrats on your new baby. Many joys and laughs to be had with a new baby and many memories of the kitty that just passed. I understand the bittersweet feeling you must be having at the moment. I lost a 7 year old cat and a few weeks after that I got a ginger kitty as the other one we had was so lonely.

Hi crazycatlady40, I am also very sorry for your loss. Your new baby looks adorable and very cheeky. I am also in Australia as I see some others on this thread are.

Goodness, so many Aussies! 

Lovely to see everyone here.

It's the Aussie invasion! I joined here the other day, and I'm in Australia, too. I have a similar story, as well. Lost my Ziggy in February aged four, quite unexpectedly and suddenly. We got our new kitten just over a week ago, to fill that empty void in our lives.
Welcome to the forum

Happy to post some more photo of Banjo on here if you want me to. I think he's really cute if I do say so myself. Had him for 5 weeks and fell in love full in love with him after not even a week.

Sorry I haven't been around for a while. Been busy with work and my Dad going into hospital in Melbourne next Sunday to have liver tumors removed. Hoping they are right and it's a straight forward op and he's home in a week.

Oh no, I hope all goes well with your dad!  That's scary.  

And how could you not fall in love with that little guy, Banjo's adorable!
