Title: Whoops I've done it again! Post by: BikerGran on November 18, 2009, 11:12:02 PM Well what else could I do when a perfectly healthy 14 year old cat was going to be put down cos her owner can't keep her and no-one will take her because of her age? She's arriving tomorrow, our other three cats won't mind will they?
My daughter thinks we're bonkers. Title: Re: Whoops I've done it again! Post by: Baby Duck on November 18, 2009, 11:39:51 PM Good on yer for taking the moggy in.
I am catless since Geoffrey jumped out of the window back in July (a twenty foot drop from a second floor flat). I posted notices and asked people but he was never seen again. I'd like to think he was found and taken in by some kind person like yourself but I will never know. Title: Re: Whoops I've done it again!

Title: Re: Whoops I've done it again! Post by: BikerGran on November 19, 2009, 08:23:16 PM She's a very small pretty dark tortie, quite friendly too considering she's in a new environment. No photos yet cos she's inclined to hide unless she's sitting on me. Our scaredy-cat Harley took one look and retreated upstairs, big fat black Bubble took one look and decided to ignore her, but I'm more worried about Chester who's a great big bruiser of a neutered tom, but panics at anything new! He didn't want to come back in the house after he saw Angelica (the new one) but I persuaded him and I think he'll be spending the night on top of me!

Took in a 13 yr old Tabby point Siamese that is a fruitcake about two years back. Was almost ferrel. Would not let anyone get near her. Now.... ? She sleeps on the bed and comes looking for attention/food and is very vocal if you don't rub her belly. (bit like me ::) ) She even lets the kids fuss her. Mind you I can't tell you how many times she ripped my hands to shreads when we first got her and I was trying to get her used to being in contact with people ;D Title: Re: Whoops I've done it again!

Got that sorted (at great expense) and she turned into a different cat! Title: Re: Whoops I've done it again! Post by: smallhog on November 21, 2009, 03:29:38 PM Well done you! I know a lot of people wouldn't have taken on an oldie. I'm a mog lover myself with three of the little
