Nuutti

   

Minna had dreamed about a "red" cat since the middle of 80´s. It was just a dream but yet she already knew what that cat would be called if she one day would have it. But dreams are dreams and they don´t often come true. 

It was August 2007 when phone rang. Our friend Tiina called that she had taken two kittens from a woman who wanted to find them homes immediately. We saw some photos also. Minna made the most quickly decision she has ever made and said that the male can come here. And so came tiny little Nuutti. He came, settled down and took our hearts completely. Pekko got a wonderful new friend to play with and Altti got another one to take care of. 

We know little about Nuutti´s background. He has a sister called "Piina" and she also has a very special colour just like Nuutti does. These kittens came to Tiina via announcement in internet. They were 12 weeks old when they came, but Nuutti looked younger. Maybe it was because he did not have much muscles and he was very clumsy. But after one week running around and climbing and playing with Pekko he was much more agile and could control his body better.

Nuutti was very brave from the beginning. Well, he spend two hours in sauna and bathroom but then he came out and he felt like at home right after that! He was not afraid of dogs at all and he ate well and knew how to use litter box also. He played a lot with Pekko right away so on the first night it was like having a formula circus at our own home!  
        

Nuutti is very lively boy! Well, for a kitten perhaps not so lively when compared to some other kittens we have seen, but when compared to our other cats he is like forever working little machine. :-) During the first weeks he was very spicy but then he started to calm down. We have worked a lot with him and trained him that we can treat him and give medicins also if needed. He got infection in one eye when he came and it was a pure fight to treat him at first but within two weeks he learned to accept it and now he is very nice to handle. When we first time visited vet because of the infected eye he screamed like some one would have been cutting of his head off. But on the second time he surprised us all! He behaved very well :-) No screaming at all. So Nuutti is full of surprises :-) 

Nuutti can nowdays also settle down if needed. He is not playing all the time anymore but he can also take naps. :-) Usually he does it on soffa but also sometimes on laps. Especially when some one sits computing he jumps to laps and sleeps there. And he sleeps over some ones legs :-) He does not care even though his "matress" sometimes moves and he falls down. He just wakes up and finds a better place to sleep....and yet again over some ones feet. :-) 

Nuutti loves to play with Pekko! Those two play together, sleep together, eat together and help each other to keep coats clen. They stay awake during nighttime and go to sleep at the same time. And they share best places to sleep in. Nuutti has learned from Pekko many many things and how to behave in different kind of situations. But Nuutti is not a copy of Pekko. Pekko is more independent but Nuutti loves to be cuddled. Pekko adores Mira and loves to sleep with her but Nuutti preferes people as his cuddlers. 
   

Nuutti is a male and he was born 21.6.2007. He had only one testicle which was taken off by surgery at the same time when he was castrated. Nuutti is not purebred even though he may look like one. He has very long tail and long legs and his body looks quite "oriental". Byt anyway he is just ordinary "countryside cat". Just like all cats we have and have always had.

Nuutti loves cheese and butter and he will put his head into ones mouth if needed to get those! He is also interested in eating fish but he does not know where to start :-) so instead of eating them he is just "fishing" them from bowl to the floor. He has also dived few times into dog food bag to have a taste but yet he preferes cat food. Nuutti loves to sit on balcony and he must be carried back inside otherwise he will spend there for hours! 

Nuutti has not been to our summercottage yet but knowing his character he will for sure love it! 

Nuutti is reddish creme coloured and he has narrow "tiger stripes" all over his body. His eyes are surrounded by white and he has tiny spot of white on his chin and throat. He had red spots in his coat when he was younger but now they have turned into stripes almost all over. Actually Nuutti is quite close to the colour of a mustard dandie :-)  

Nuutti has few nicknames already: Nuu, Nuupponen, Nuuppi and Herra Koipeliini.
