I saw an ad on Petfinder Thursday so I called and we now own this new handsome young man.

He is really sweet so far and my daughter and our cat Gizzy are in love


His name is Teddy Bear but my daughter is going to rename him. Any suggestions are more than welcome.







I wish the picture quality had come out better in this one but still too cute. Nose to nose.

What beautiful colouring he has
I adore that little white strip between the black and the red patches
And he's got such a cheeky little face

I have a soft spot for the little squealers. Had a red shorthair back in grade school by the name of Gertrude.

Sort of. They kind of remind me of big hamsters.

I had one as a kid and he was so sweet. He would follow me around the house.

This is my daughters second one. Her first one passed and she has been wanting another one for quite awhile now.

Well she says she is just going to leave it a Teddy Bear because she can't think of anything that seems right.

I told to rename him Theodore Roosevelt. That way she can call him Teddy or Theo


Not sure she bought it though
