Cleo adopted

 Cleo was adopted today by the nice grandmother who came with her granddaughter last week (or two?) She wanted to wait until after her weekend guests had visited to choose a cat so that she could spend quality time with the new cat. She certainly got all the tips and tricks that she could out of Lucy and Tim so I hope that she is prepared for Cleo's occasional lapses.

Tofu was adopted yesterday so the little stand alone is empty again.  It seems to be the good luck cage at the moment (probably because it usually has a kitten in it.) Everybody is charmed by Puss who is just inside the front door including a family of 3 women and 3 kids who came late this afternoon, looking for a young cat suitable for kids. The older boy was very confident with all the cats . . . Ginger George let this boy stroke his flank after he flopped on this side at their collected feet. But the younger ones were a bit wary (wise kids) and there is a 3year old at home. They will look at the blog for the kittens who are in foster homes that we know are acclimated to children. Libby asked not to be shown to children.

Jolene's back legs are improving. She walks on them now. She will be ready to run with Tabby and Phantom soon.

Robyn spent some time in the play place with Ruby and company so that she could cool down after being in the kitchen. We need to set up a fan in there on hot days with lots of washing up.
