Litter delivery

 The lovely vollie who delivered the bags of litter says that the place we get it from is closing up shop. He is taking home, to his shed, the bags that they have left. And we are stocked up for a while. At the rate we are adopting out cats, those small bags may be gone by August.

I took the opportunity to put the drying table closer to the vollie's work space.
 

And the bins are close to the roller door. The nice vollie took the pallet away.

Jimmy is by himself because Bluebelle, his mum got adopted over the weekend. I didn't really think they were "a bonded pair."

And Eleanor lost a couple of her kittens.

She is left with Erica and Evie who were sucking on her tummy this afternoon. 

Little Pebble left the building. She has gone to a foster to adopt home because she wasn't happy with her erstwhile house mates.

 A woman rang up asking for a cat that she can take for walks. We suggested Ravyn. She was going to visit before 4pm if she could get a lift. Didn't arrive. Perhaps tomorrow?

Where Peaches and family were we have Kenny and Pablo. Don't know who is whom. One is very friendly and the other is hiding.

And the boarder Ottie is out of hiding. He was adopted from us. I don't recognise him but he accepted a pat from me.

Long termers moving

 Today a woman came to adopt Willow. She left her thoroughly self-rubbed-over T-shirt in Willow's bed for the cat to get used to her smell. She will pick her up tomorrow afternoon and take her home to her very own room, etc, etc. Willow is just like the cat they used to have, so they want to reproduce their happy days. I hope Willow will fill the gap.

And I brought home Toby. Luckily Irene's husband Peter (aka the cat wrangler) arrived just as Irene failed to get Toby into a carrier. Peter practiced on all our difficult cats in the move from East Roseville to Mona Vale. Toby is now in his own room, with a view of the table that I have trained birds to come to for almonds. He will have his own "cat TV". Otherwise it is very quiet here and that will probably suit him. After being enclosed in a small condo for about a year he will need to learn to jump and run.

Cathy and Heathcliffe went to be desexed today. Poor Cathy was off her face on pain meds this evening.

The bloke who visited Vulcan on Wednesday returned with his partner. She is just as crazy about the kitten as he is.

And Little Pebble has been moved into the stand alone with the cats she lived with at "home". Dinner times may be a little fraught.

Few vollies concentrates the effort

 We managed to finish early even though there were only four of us today. Early to bed though, tonight.

 I took Ravyn for a walk which she enjoyed. She inspected everybody including Abagail and Storm who didn't show their faces. They are from the same cat collector who provided Peaches and family and Little Pebble. Little Pebble had a play with them this afternoon under the supervision of their collector. She is a very cuddly kitten, it seems.

Chez Abagail and Storm before Little Pebble visited.

 Then we wandered to Sparrow's to say hello.

Ravyn and Sparrow.

The family in the next door condo has been broken up. One has gone back to the collector because he has gingivitis. The mum Peaches as been moved to Isolation because she has a suspicious lesion. When I was giving breakfast upstairs, I looked down and saw her visiting with her kids. . . . on the outside. When I took her back to Isolation, I found that the door, while closed was not locked. Goodness knows where and for how long she wandered around. The collector came today to give the two "kittens" a bath, each. They were extra good for her. She will return on Friday and do it again.

Ravyn inspected the kitchen.

 And the merch shelves. She did approve the house.

We have lots of O-borders including the gorgeous Otis. His house mate is Kioko. But there is an Ottie who was still hiding in his house. He is one of our adoptees. I haven't seen him yet.

Kath managed to get a photo of the Voomies looking angelic.
