Adoption Tails: Polly

 Polly, now Lua

1 day: Polly is settling in amazingly, she seems happy and doesn't seem to have any issues adjusting to her new home. She's been eating and drinking regularly and has used her litter a bunch too.

Polly

 1 month: Polly is going really well here, she's settling in right at home. The owners have decided to rename her Lua. "Thank you guys for everything you do."

Akira

1 day: He is settling in well and has been eating, etc. The only concern is that he has been sneezing a lot and has weeping eyes.

3 days: He's still sneezing a bit like he has a cold.

 

1 week: He's settling in well and eating lots. Only thing is that the teary eyes and occasional sneezing is still ongoing. The yellow/brown discharge from his eyes has to be wiped daily. He's enjoying sleeping in his cat tower and has been sleeping with the owners. Only hiding in occasion.

No 1 month response.

Little One

Little One

 1 month: He's settled in very well. Very vocal when he wants attention and always following the owner about his own home.

Simba

1 day: Simba is settling is so much better than expected. The moment the owners let him out, he wandered everywhere around the house and then hid under the bed. He came out for dinner the same night and slept beside the owner's feet on the first night and on their feet the next night. He is so adorable and definitely has a very good personality. He has no problem eating, drinking water and using the litter tray.

1 week: He is much more relaxed, lying here and there in the house. He is eating and drinking well. Even lets the owners groom him but not for long. 

Simba

 1 month: Simba is doing well and grows a closer bond with the owners.

Sara

1 day: She's doing alright. The owner set her all up with everything she needs, she stayed in her carrier for a while. She was under the bed in the morning. The owner only noticed a little bit of food had been eaten.

1 week: It's going all good, just going to take a little time for both cats to get used to each other.

 1 month: Sara is going really well. She loves the owner's resident cat Emma. They're both really playful and sometimes Emma will try and chase Sara around. She gets more comfortable everyday having a new friend around. Sara is becoming more trusting everyday, and has been coming up close to the owner and licks treats off her hand. The owner actually only got the first quick little pat on her head the other night which was very exciting.

 

Nova's new eye

 Since she has moved to Boarding, her left eye has changed. It used to have a white circle on the lower half. Now that has disappeared but it looks as though the front part of her eye has become more spherical rather than being convex outwards. She seems very happy and friendly as ever.

As is Chelsea along at the other end of Boarding. Her kittens don't bolt out of the condo quite as quickly. And she just wants cuddles.

Even Whitney's kittens aren't such quick escape artists.

There were adoptions over the weekend: Akira, Jenni, Cuddlepie and Mystic

Mystic

Camilla has been moved to Cuddlepie's condo. She was not happy after being moved. But she will get used to her new digs.

She is next to Clyde who rather likes it in Welfare.

Whereas, Robbie can't decide whether or not he likes the change.

All the itchy gingers had a nice long self grooming session under strict supervision. No scratching allowed.

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.
