January 2

The Staring Game

Hansi is staring at Indah who is behind me on a couch. They are getting used to each other slowly.
There is still some hissing by Indah and occasionally they swipe and growl at each other.
They are very curious, sit and sleep in the same places, eat each others food, use each each others litter boxes, etc.
Earlier this morning I saw Indah sniffing Hansi's butt. Perhaps another step in the friendship process, or maybe I've watched too many nature programs.

LOL @ your commentary :o). What a handsome guy Hansi is

Hansi says "I'm staring, but this is no game."
Good to hear that their relationship is progressing.

Beautiful portrait of Hansi. It sounds like they're working it out just fine.

Beautiful portrait, Hansi looks very alert, keeping his eyes on Indah.

Hansi is obviously settling into his role as photographic model very well. Looking forward to seeing the two of them together. V

There is a little tension in his look but he's a pretty boy.

I notice a piece of Hansi's right ear is missing, possibly after a cat fight. A pretty face. V

Very beautiful portrait of Hansi. Don't worry, they'll soon get use to one another.

Hansi is such a cutie! Great portrait of him. V

Like the attentive eyes.

Very nice portrait of Hansi! V

Cats are cautious and as you know it takes time. This is very nice closeup. You have a handsome subject.

He is a handsome boy in your fine portrait. It sounds like they are getting used to each other. My cats still hiss occasionally. V

Cute kitty. V

Looks like Hansi is not camera-shy. Seems like he and Indah are slowly sorting out their relationship.
LynnH02-Jan-2022 21:44
Sounds like they're getting better acquainted. The butt sniff is a status check and I believe a step in the right direction. He's a real handsome cat. Love his eyes. Great portrait. V

A beautiful portrait of the handsome Hansi, I love the markings
behind his eyes.

so nice they are getting used to each other.V.

Im happy to hear you have more than one litter box. Hope they will become best friends and that you will post puctures of them together. Photographing two cats interacting is much more fun than photographing one.

My goodness, Hansi is one of the most beautiful cats! Your portrait of him is sublime. It can take a long time for cats to adjust to others, I've had 5 cats at a time and they all ended up getting on just fine. VV

Awwwwww.....so sweet. They will be friends quite soon... ~VV~
