His person is absolutely bespotted by him. He has the biggest cat carrier. We formed a farewell queue to see him out. He will be back.
I made it to Safe before the Willoughby trucks did. So there are no bags on the balcony and room in one of the Cousins bins. Because I was so early I got to see the full moon setting on my way to Safe. And I saw it again rising on my way home. How often does that happen on a Wednesday?
We had visitors this afternoon. The sons of the family who brought back Teddy visited to say goodbye properly. Their explanations about why he was returned were more along the lines of "realized that we need to travel, not a good time, etc, etc".
But this afternoon he was adopted to a woman who visited yesterday and left her T-shirt in his hammock for him to get used to her smell. (I didn't know about that and had chucked it out by the time she arrived because I thought one of the sons had left it). Never mind. He has gone to a better home.
A couple rang to say they wanted to meet Pirate Pete and came in about 3pm. P Pete wasn't very friendly. Charlie dropped off her foster kitten Mylo this morning and said that he was super cuddley. He didn't want anything to do with this older couple.

Then another couple (mother and daughter) came in. They had phoned after looking at our website and wanted to meet Pikachu. They spent quite a bit of time with her. And she liked them. They are both dark skinned, dark haired women so perhaps she can see them more clearly. They will be back tomorrow to adopt her.

And another woman came in to adopt Alfie, a kitten from foster.
Recently Lola has taken up residence on Tim's chair or on his desk. Not exactly convenient for Tim. But good for Lola to stroll over to the feeding station. Today one of the vollies suggested giving her a box. There was a black box that looked conveniently small. I put it behind Tim's screen. And she climbed in, curled herself into a tight ball and went to sleep.
