About a week later and Mush is settling in very nicely.  He has taken to lying on my nightstand - don't you just want to kiss his little face!  Notice his lilac nose and paw pads - typical of a Lilac Solid Persian.


Cute shot of Mush content in my arms!

 Curled up in his other favorite spot, Johnnies pillow!

 Starting to look a little scraggly, might be time for his first bath soon.
We discovered that Mush has rag doll qualities which is unusual for a persian.  He just flops in your arms if you pick him up while he is asleep.  Too cute for words - how did I get such a great cat?

Bringing Home My First Persian Cat

I can honestly say that bringing home Celtic Twilight from Kazbara Persians was one of the best days of my life.  I had dreamed of owning a Persian since I was a little girl, maybe around 5?  Then as I was a teenager I became fascinated by breeding and showing cats as a hobby.  I had always imagined that someday I would be in a position to follow my dream and now I can.  It felt great to cross that one of my bucket list.  In this first shot Celtic Twilight badly needs a brushing and his eyes cleaned, something I am going to have to get used to!



After hours of trying to introduce the kitten to the dogs, they finally sat on the same couch without any drama!!!

Johnnie gives Twilight a mohawk!!!!  It was in the car journey that the nick name Mush was decided upon.  We had just moved to Birr, where everyone calls each other Mush.  Plus his face so cute and mushed in so it seemed like a perfect name and it stuck!
