Adoption Tails: Akira and Natsu

 Akira

Akira at Safe

 1 day: She's settling in really well. She's in the daughter's lap and really playful. Eating and used the litter tray. The family will keep the name but possibly call her something shorter like Kira or Kiri, they'll see. The biggest problem they have right now is that the youngest daughter, who is besotted with Akira, has an allergic reaction every time she goes in the room. Just the right eye, red and puffy almost immediately. The family is seeing whether it's upon contact only and will ask their GP as well.

1 week: Akira is settling in great - smelt the house down and she's really comfortable. The daughter is getting better with the allergies. Akira does not seem to be enjoying the new foods as much as what she ate at SAFE, she used to finish it all really quickly but not for the new food. The family is working on transitioning her food slowly.

 

1 month: Akira is great, really comfortable, very playful - makes the owners laugh so much. She loves ping pong balls and dribbling the ball between the chairs.

 

Naksu aka Uni

2 days: Her owners have decided to rename her Uni. “For the first and second day, she was quite reserved and hid under a shelf rack for long hours but would occasionally come out to explore and to eat, drink and use the litter box. We let her come to us and were able to pet her for short periods of time. From the third day, she was very comfortably walking out in the open and exploring the living room, rubbing her scent on everything, including our legs. She seems disinterested when we tried to play with some cat toys but nonetheless very friendly and affectionate when we give her a good petting.” She is currently cleaning herself under the dining table.

2 weeks: “Uni has been doing very well and seems very comfortable with exploring the whole place and coming up to us on her own accord. We've tried different toys with her but she seems to have settled with a simple tennis ball we had lying around. She is usually quite calm and mostly sleeps during the day, but becomes very active and hyper at night, as she zooms across the living room and hallways”. Uni has her meals twice a day. They give her mostly dry food mixed with some canned wet food.

Uni and the ball

3 weeks: Uni has been having some urinary issues but her behaviour has been otherwise normal. She plays with her toys, walks around, and lays about. Her owners took her to the vet and her bladder seemed fine but they were given some antibiotics to help her.
