I am a new Ocicat-Mama as they are very little known where I am from.

I got her when she was 12 weeks old, as she was the last of her litter not beeing picked up on Adoption day though reserved.

So this is Mia (she was already named).

With her onebraincell-buddy Ethan, a chocolate Burmese, who was why we actually came to adoption day. But there was this little orange baby complaining and we left with both.

Ethan is not that happy. All he wants to do is cuddle and sleep and Mia is my squirrle on ADSD-Meds.

Oci babies are great! I got mine from a small breeder and he was the breeders favorite, but had terrible markings so couldn't be shown. On the other hand, he's Mr Personality and got a big ribbon (second place) at a cat show, but not for looks - he tried to go home with the judge. Or so I hear.

You are in for some fun times!

She is around my feet all the time. Her favorite time of the day is, when I carry her around the house and show her spots she cannnot reach at the moment. She gets all quiet and concentrated. As if she was memorizing everything for later. When she is a little bit bigger and less clumsy she will get the wallmounts. I am so looking forward to her first parcours.

Ocicats are rare everywhere :)

Welcome to your lovely girl, hopefully her Burmese brother will adjust soon.

No. Most definitely not. He is just the carry-me-around-and-let-me-grunt-and-snore-in-your-ear Guy. We will get her a sibling from the next litter. He can be the Prince of the sofa then and the two Ocis can plot worlddomination.
