SO... Bentley is finally home and I am so happy and excited I can barely stand it!

We picked him up from Megailee Ragdolls in the Raleigh, NC area on Monday and drove the 10 hours home. And I can honestly say that those were some of the best 10 hours of my life!!! That little baby was SO GOOD in the car! We started him out in his carrier, but he started to cry (oh-so-pitifully!!!) so I took him out and he immediately settled right down in my lap, and there he stayed... for 10 long hours! We snuggled, he napped, he streeeeeeeetched, he flopped, he purred, he looked out the window... and I fell more in love by the minute!

He is so sweet and so precious. He's adventurous, bold and fearless, yet he is also such a cuddlebug, purr-box and a total lap-kitty. He's simply magical. I told Gail that I think he's been sprinkled with pixie dust!!!

Stay tuned for LOTS of pictures!

(BTW, I will eventually add some of these pictures to our regular Ragdoll thread, but I just felt like my little guy deserved his own "Welcome Home" thread!)

In the car...

I remember his baby pics, what a precious little thing!! He's just as adorable now

His colouring has "grown up" quite a bit

More pics!

OMG preciousness!!!!!!!!!!! I am SO glad you started a new thread for this sweet adorable boy!

Lynn, I''m curious - where did the name come from? I ask because my favorite poet of all time is Edmund Spenser

Oh my. Bentley is perfect in every way! How stinkin'' adorable! How is his ''big brother'' handling everything? I''m sure they''ll be the best of friends in no time!

Lynn, I hope you don''t knit. You might never find him among the skeins.

i am typing awkwardly and one-handedly because little Bentley is curled up in my left arm, snoozing away! OH, he is just sooooo precious! i cannot believe how WELL and how FAST he adjusted to everything! he waltzed right in head and tail held high like he owned the place!!!

in some ways, he is a LOT different than Boo... and while i am sure some of it is personality and temperament, i think most of it is the difference in how they were socialized. bentley is so confident, self-assured, and AFFECTIONATE... already a lap kitty!

poor boo was not "raised underfoot" at the breeder's, and had very little human interaction until he came home with us. what a huge difference that makes.

And THAT'S my story and I'm sticking to it!

great question, BEG! no, i have never heard of the poet!

we just chose bentley because we both liked it... and the edmund just came to me one day, and it cracks me up that such a darling little wisp of a fuzzball has such a grown-up, *serious* name! the spencer was tacked on because it is my husband''s middle name and we got a charge out of that!

although we''ve been calling him "Squeak" because his meow is nothing more than a little itty bitty *squeak*!!!!

And THAT'S my story and I'm sticking to it!

no... we did the introductions slowly over about 5 days, and they were pretty much instant buddies! i was (am!) so happy about that! i attribute a lot of that, though, to their personalities as raggies. they really are such amazing, gentle, loving cats!

OH.MY.GOD. I''m so glad I decided today to peak in here, otherwise I would''ve missed this! He is STUNNING! Oh wow

And from the sound of it, personality to boot! You''re making me crave another ragdoll, even if mine is currently snoring too loud for me to hear the TV!
