Thanks June, that seems to have done the trick

Yes, we've fostered family pets before, isn't there someone who would keep him until you get settled?

Little rat bag!

At the moment he's glued to the radiator having had breakfast and meds. He must be feeling alright today as he's just dusted Georgia for taking liberties.

Was woken by My husband at 7 .00 this morning. He'd gone down to make a cup of tea. There he was, curled up asleep on his bed, (Yowlee, not my husband), I don't know whether to hug him or throttle him. "where the heck where you last night, you little s-d, you nearly gave me a heart attack"...

Hi folks I know there's not much anyone can do but Yowlee disappeared today. It's totally unlike him. He's old, sick and likes his home comforts far too much. I last saw him on his bed about four hours ago. When I gave him his meds. He was a bit sad today and disinclined to speak. I know the old sto...

Hi Susan, welcome to CC I'm fairly new here too. I've got two cats, a 17 year old called Yowlee and a two and a half year old called Georgia. That's Yowlee in the picture guarding my handbag looking forward to hearing more about you.

Hi Sue,
Do you mean the time Angela and I got all dressed up to go and see Swan Lake at the Regent only to find out it wasn't on for anther month. Oh dear a thought you'd forgotten about that

Hi all, Well let's see, I've always been a cat person, even before I ever had one. For years I begged my mum and dad for my own cat but I don't think they particularly liked them. Either that or it was because we already had a dog, hamster, budgie and probably a goldfish as well. As we were living i...

My neighbour overheard me singing in the garden last week. She peered over the fence to see me holding Georgie. Your singing to your cat? She enquired. (Hey there Georgie girl actually). Yes, I said, but only the traditional stuff. She opened her mouth to say something else but changed her mind and ...

Little monkeys! Georgia raids the bins around the house. I get up the next morning to find toffee papers, screwed up receipts and envelopes all over the place.

We acquired our old fellow Yowlee as a stray. After many months of gaining his trust we managed to get hold of him and take him to the vet's to see if he was micro chipped which he was. We contacted the owners who had moved house about a year before. He must have wandered away from the new house and...

I must admit when I saw the topic "painting with cat" I did wonder whether using a roller would be easier!

Hi Kathymarie, if it was a bit closer to home I would have loved to help, but good luck with it. What's your charity called, does it have a website?

Finally got the test back for Yowlee. A little protein in his urine but no sign of infection. He's a bit brighter this morning so on with the meds until May.

Thanked Sue, will do x

Yowlee is taking a bit of a nosedive again in spite of the meds. I've been waiting for the results of the urine test since 28th Dec. I phoned the vets the day after and was told that the vet would call me back which they didn't. I called round on Monday but of course they were closed for bank holida...

I agree with Kay, there's bound to be other cat lovers in the area that will look out for her. We have a battered old stray that timidly comes in to our garden from time to time. It won't let me come too close, but close enough to feed it. If I get up early enough I often find it on my cats day bed ...

Lots of whiz bangs going off here.. Georgie is hiding under the bedspread, Yowlee is sitting by the patio door watching them!! Strange little cat.

I mean of course blups . Drat this predictive text!

Georgie is far to interested in my mead bubbling away in the corner of the bedroom to pay any attention to the bangs going on outside. She keeps whacking the airlock every time it blurs.

hoppy mew purr back from Georgie and Yowlee xxxx

Hi blackcat4, I'm New too and I'm really enjoying this community. My sister is Bobbys girl.

Hi Ray, my husband and I started feeding a stray eight years ago. Eventually after a few months we were able to handle him enough to take him to the vets to get him checked out and to see whether he was micro chipped. He was. We phoned the owner who told us his name was Elvis, (we have been calling ...

I know who the bell is pete

Man's finest achievements. The wheel, Vinci's Mona Lisa, San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge, Yowlee's early morning Pete sample; wait what?? Yes ladies and gentlemen I've struck gold first time! How about that then

Hi Lucas, I too am very allergic to most animals. I have eczema and asthma and if I fuss anybody else's cat or dog I come up in an all over rash. However, I'm not allergic to my own two cats. I have a theory that you build up an immunity to your own pets but its can take some time. I married in to t...

Sorry folks I thought the first entry of this hadn't gone

Hi Sue, no its not fluid retention, he should beover5 kilos because he's such a big cat so he's actually underweight

Hi folks, just back from the vets. Yowlee has gained weight, he's gone from 4.25 to 4.45 kilos in a month. He's got to submit a urine sample, (that's going to be fun), the vet has given me some special sand to put in his box. All I have to do now is stop Georgia from using it!
