Dada’s Note: The new dog (whose name may or may not become Java, as he appears to want to steal coffee whenever somebody has a cup near him) hasn’t actually met the cats yet, but there has been much observation through the screen door. There was a lot of big-eyed “OMG what’s that?” from the cats the first day he was here, which is when the above video was taken; but judging by Chaplin’s subsequent reactions, in particular, the cats may think that the new dog is Dennis, or at least, a Dennis-like dog with whom they may want to become friends.

It’s very smart to introduce them slowly, and we can hardly wait until they are all cuddling together on the couch!

I love the tiptoeing away. Guess there’s no point disturbing the Kraken, right Charlee?

Java does look somewhat Dennis-y. That’s awesome! The backup and tippie-toe away is priceless! #slickmove

Looks like he’s settling in nicely.
All I want is a room somewhere; far away from the cold night air!
Looks like he’s got it… 😂

I always have about twenty names for my newbies until I settle on one. Or three! That’s one lucky Java, anyway!

What a great video of Charlee acting all casual like with the new dog. We hope they all learn to love each other as they did with Dennis.
