I beat the bin pick up

 I was able to get all the bags on the balcony into other folk's bins this morning. So there was space in the Cousins bins in the afternoon. I got rid of a pile of bedding that hasn't been used in the past 4 years from the shelves out back. 

For the rest of the day the vollies did a splendid job and all finished early.

The play place was thoroughly dehaired because the glam kitten litter have all been adopted. Likewise Velvet and Vovo (wonder if it was the family who came on Friday), Kokora whose condo was occupied by Lewis whose adoption was formalised today. He will be picked up tomorrow.

A man came looking for an older cat to share his rather small appartment (and his girlfriend). He took ages with lots of connections via the phone with the girlfriend to finally decide to take Dixie. He fancied Frankie, Griffin, LeClerc, Aslan, Bissie, Mickey and Jellybean too. No wonder it took so long.

 In the meantime a boyfriend came in to do the paperwork for Vanilla who will be picked up tomorrow from the foster home.

And Joy took photos:

Angelica seems to eat everything now. She has been desexed so should be available next week or so.

The three Incomers, who used to be very shy but now are just very hungry kittens have names:

Renny

 

Darley

Blossom

Visitors

 A strange variety came in today. 

A mother and her son looking for a cat who would go well with their dog and their rabbit. I referred them to our web page to see if any of those in foster homes have got to know a dog.

A couple and their hyperactive son who wanted to meet Vovo and Velvet. Vovo loved the mother (and vice versa). The son just wanted to squeeze the next cat. The father tried to control the son.

A staff member from next door came to see if we had a suitable cat for her friend who already has a boy cat. I thought perhaps Dixie might be good. She is used to living with another cat and might like to be boss for a change.

Dixie

She might become a volunteer at Safe, she was so impressed.

Griffin was visited by the woman who lusts after China and India. They are still on sneeze watch so are not yet available. So she might end up with Griffitn.

Griffin

Will would like to go with any of the folk who visit Griffin.

Ta, da. . . we had a litter delivery just in time.

Rory had his eye operation and is in Boarding because he has a hard cone and Incoming condos are too small. 

Rory

He is against the wall above and to the left of Dawson who can talk to him about being lucky to have one eye. . . . .  He seems to have got chattier recently.

Dawson

And Romeo is probably ready to be adopted. After I put the flea treatment on him and see if it makes him itchy.

Codie wins

 The grass eating effort! On Wednesday, I distributed pots of grass grown for our cats by Joan. Most of them didn't appreciate her effort. But Codie ate most:

Codie is not prepared to be photographed

Darcy done good too.

As did Tilly.

And Sydney and Phoenix (even though they won't stand still for a photo).

Sydney & Phoenix

Pepper and Dixie did well. But Pepper did better because she was adopted today. Chosen by a preteen for her birthday present.

Pepper and Dixie

She has gone to live in Darlinghurst.

Where for art thou, Romeo?

 Soon after I arrived this afternoon, a couple came back to adopt either Greta or somebody else. Eventually they chose Greta who accepted their cuddles quietly. They have 3 kids: 14, 11 and 3. The three year old might be the problem but they are both experienced cat owners so will deal with it.

Then a man came in to meet Pirate Pete. He likes to adopt cats who have problems. So the lack of a foot appealed to him. After lots of cogitation and discussion, he decided that Pirate Pete would get on with his other cat who has the wobbles.

Caudelia and her two (China and India) have been moved to the stand alone in Isolation. They do have ringworm.

Cordelia, India, China

 Likewise with Ishi and Apricot.

So does one or two of the Spagetti, Pixie, Ekko condo in Welfare.

Not us! We are Choc and Chip

Next to them are Dixie and Pepper. Don't know their history.

Dixie (1-2yo) and Pepper (2-3 yo)

The "unbonded" pair in the condo below Tilly have been adopted too. 

And I brought home Romeo for some R&R.
