Wolfgang gone

 He left yesterday with a delighted looking lady. He left enough hair on his hammock to make a kitten! I hope his new owner is not a wearer of black clothes.

And today the little H girl,

Hazel

Hazel was adopted. She and her person seem perfectly matched. 

It was a quiet afternoon, again, so I worked on PC's knots. This comb seem to be effective. It has a razor blade inside it but I don't use that side. His hair clumps are diminishing. Probably only 80% left now! He is not enjoying the process but doesn't complain with his claws.

The O kittens came back from being desexed. One has a clot on his sliced scrotum. Be gentle with him. They are Ophelia, Odysseus, Othello and Octavia. The ginger boys purr as soon as you look at them.

Octavia

O boy (!)

 Hoshi and Tsuki were moved from Incoming to Welfare this afternoon. David loves both of them even though only one of them loves to be cuddled. (The shy guy will come around to the feeders).

?H or T?
Last thing today I set up the stand alone in Isolation because Cookie and Marmalade have been confirmed ring worm positive. Earlier in the afternoon I spotted a vollie happily cuddling one of them in Welfare. I mentioned that the "under observation" sign meant that they shouldn't be cuddled. She put the kitten back into the condo and, at my suggestion, left (with her apron which she will wash.)

The fungus that causes ringworm in cats also infects humans. If you find you have an extremely itchy spot somewhere on your body, smother it with Vasoline. That forms an oily film that excludes oxygen from getting to the fungus and slows down its growth. Chemist sell Lamisil which is a cream that kills fungus (athlete's foot fungus, ringworm fungus, whatever fungus.)

No poo bags!

We have cleared the backlog. There is space in one Willoughby bin and one empty Willoughby bin in the basement! And there are no boarders to add to the poo pile. Plus lots of cats were adopted over the weekend including Minty, the birthday girl who must have been with us for more than 2 years. Her sister Rascal is still with us. And Rosie was adopted. Roxie, her mum, doesn't seem perturbed. 

I moved Wolfgang into Enclosure 1. It smelled just fine before I did. But it smelled of entire male soon after he moved in. Let's hope that odour does not persist. He got used to more space, slowly,

There is a new cat in Better Row called Mimi. Kath introduced herself to Mimi and had a friend for life within seconds.

Mimi

This was after she assembled over a dozen new folders for more adoptions this week, please.


 There are four lovely H kittens who are ready to go (as soon as the paperwork is uploaded). They are in the corner condo under where Tilly was.

Harry and Harvey

Harlow and Hazel

The highlight of a slow afternoon was that PC claimed his chair and was pestered by folk trying to help him clean himself up.

PC after with a pile of tags.
