Awww... Grooming is definitely a sign of acceptance! Looks like they are starting to really bond!

haven't gotten to the mutual grooming with the twins and the rest of the gang. But Rufio and Sampson have formed a special bond. Rufio has been so great with Sampson. They are best of friends. They treat each other almost like litter mates.!!

It's always nice when the family can blend together. Sampson is actually turning out to be a great baby sitter, and keeps the twins entertained. :roflmao:

My 10 lb fatty...my husband makes fun of his 'pouch' all the time. He's 10 oz behind Zubi. Zubi is all muscle though, and Tamu is still a bit 'fluffy' haha

The 'pouch' is formally called a primordial pouch and is found in exotic cats as well as some domestic breeds such as the Egyptian Mau. It is thought to serve a couple of purposes - protection from claws when fighting other cats, increased flexibility allowing for longer strides when running (hunting), and for excess fat stores for those days that end in unsuccessful hunting excursions.

He outweighs Zubi by a few ounces now...getting close to 12 lb! If the rest of him gets as big as his chest, we may be in trouble haha! ;)
