Lola was pleased to see me

I was greeted like a long lost relative this morning. She has certainly overcome her horror of people. But her tummy is still swollen. She has had an ultrasound. And she is still chucking up with abandon.

I decided that the mum cat in Isolation should have a name. So I looked up Google to find some Egyptian names because the lovely ladies who brought the family in spoke some kind of middle eastern language and one was veiled. I decided on some names and wrote them down but didn't take a photo. Probably by Friday all evidence of my efforts will be removed.

I also put up a third triangular hammock in their stand alone so that the kittens can climb their way to mum who tends to lie in the highest hammock. And they are still drinking from her. . . . so who can blame her for retreating to the heights.

We had some intersting visitors this afternoon (but no adoptions.) The woman who adopted Maisey a couple of years ago (https://safehavencats.blogspot.com/2023/07/ps-maisy.html) came in to tell us about the failure of a microchip company which stores the microchip info on cats. The way we work is that the council where the cat lives gets that information. So we don't think this applies to us. 

While she was here she fell in love with Leo and with Harry. She sat on the floor for ages playing with him and his neighbours (including Mia and Bassuria!)

Leo was also the focus of the attention of a couple who have a couple of free days before they head back to China to live. The free days are because the airline decided that their two cats could not travel with them in the cabin. They have to go in the baggage compartment. Their owners are not happy. And especially so since when they came to Australia their cats where caught up in a beaucratic wrangle that had them for 6 months. The cats were not pleased but did forgive their people eventually. Their people are not looking forward to going through that process again! Leo offered them confort today.

Luna, next door to him, would have liked to join in the cuddle fest.
