Clever Cody: Adoption (and other fat) Tails

 I had just sat down to do an Adoption Tales and Cody set up a racket downstairs. Even my husband rushed to see what was wrong. He had caught a fat tailed gecko in the garage. I picked it up and put it back into the garage (for another day) and told him what a clever cat he is.

Frankie, Adopted on Jan 5, 2022

Frankie when he first came to us

1 day: Full of beans and not interested in staying in the spare room. Boys adore him and are over the moon. Had trouble sourcing the food he eats but finally found a Petbarn that sells it. Sue advised to keep him in the room as long as they can even if he wants to come out, need to establish that as a safe place and also a place he can be put when they have other doors/windows open.  

1 week: All good. He's established the spare room as his and comes out a bit during the day to explore. He's company for the boys, eating well and using the litter tray. The boys are still feeding and cleaning.

1 month: Everything is going fantastic. Frankie is very much part of the family. Comes and plonks down on Erica's chest at night for cuddles but enjoying romps with the boys in the evening. Never far from his new family but needs to be taught not to jump on the kitchen bench. Gave her some tips on how to teach him,

Aster and River, adopted on Dec 23, 2021

Aster and River

1 day: Both have settled in really well.

1 week: Their new owner says that they are becoming part of the family.

1 month: Aster and River are great. It took them a while to pee into the litter tray.

Maple (Can't do better than the previous photo)

1 month: Things are great with Maple. She is settling in really well and is getting better all the time.

Rula Adopted 27/12/21

Rula

1 day: Rula is doing great. They kept her in her quiet room last night but she wanted to explore the house today. She wanders around and back to her room when she needs to. Her owner thanked us for giving them a great match. We answered that she may seem like she wants to explore but she is probably checking routes for escape and that's why we advise keeping her in a room for at least 2 weeks.

1 week: She has settled in nicely and is doing well. She loves a cuddle and a pat and sitting on the laptop!

1 month: Rula has settled in very well. She loves 'helping' her owner with her computer work and looking out the window.
