Four on Friday

 Bronwyn came at 10am to adopt Heathcliffe. Bronwyn used to be a volunteer cleaner and has at least one of our cats at home with her two soppy Alsatians and kids who are home schooled. Her daughter "needed" to adopt Heathcliffe for her own cat. (Mum paid. . . . of course.) They will pick him up on Sunday morning (probably at 10am again). And in the meantime he has had his scheduled vaccination and should have recovered from that by Sunday. Nice for us to have time to say good bye.

 Then a young man named Zane came to adopt a cat. He lives in a granny flat with his girlfriend. There is an Ozzie bulldog in the main house who is a whimp. He chose Eleanor and plans to change her name to Zara!

Her two remaining kittens will miss having mum to suck on even if there is no milk.

Erika and Evie
Their neighbour Billy got a good look at from another visitor. And a prolonged cuddle from a vollie.

Then a young couple came to choose a cat. . . or two. They eventually fell for Indy and Marcy. Despite the pairs of ginger, ex-Parvovirus boys and the paired surrendered cats like Pablo and Kenny. (So much choice, so few customers).

 Actually, more customers came. But they were just looking . . . . this time. 

And somebody phoned about the two S kittens in Avalon.

Lots of adoptions

 Perhaps we should move every year to a new location and get a rush of locals to adopt our cats!

6 went over the weekend including Lola and Pixie, Chaulk, Harry, Nutmeg. And today a volunteer came with her family to adopt Carrot after falling in love with her on her shift on Saturday.

I moved Ravyn down to where Clover was. It is a busy corner but she does like to be in the center of everything. Bubble and Squeek were moved down to Lola and Pixie's enclosure. And I moved the remaining pair upstairs (blocked their names) down to beside the tasty family.

Luckily Joy was with us to take lovely photos.

This pair of kittens is in the back wall Incoming area. I weighted them for Irene. The champagne is a girl and the black one is a boy with the biggest balls I've ever seen on a kitten. Names anyone? 


 There is a new white stand alone next door to  Garry. Very smart. With a mum called Pishi. Her four kittens were whisked away this morning, ? to be desexed. She sat relaxed all day long.

 

Pishi
Princess Peanut is ready to leave. Pity she is in the far corner of the "Welfare" area.

At the other end of that row of condos, is Indy and Marcy. We spotted a suspicious bare spot on Indy's shoulder today. Fingers crossed it is not ring worm.

 Marcy says "it wasn't me".

Kath and I gave Gideon a bit of a wash today. He keeps on walking in his poo. He must have been a bit cleaner because 3 hand towels were pooey. All he wants is a lap to crawl onto.

Piglet's new skill

 is standing on shoulders.



Piglet

Tim's new skill is numbering enclosures.

The numbers start at Lola and Pixie on the wall away from the office closest to the line of AWL condos.


 And end at 36 where Salt and Pepper are finally coming out from behind the sheets.

Across the way is Rascal in 37 to Clover in 39. Roxie is in 40 across the gap with Julie and Bassuria beside her in 41. The old AWL condos start with Marcy and Indie in 21 with Cheeto below in 22 and end with Peanut (aka Princess) at the other end of the line in 29.

Upstairs Dinesh is in D3. I assume (didn't look) that Raphaella (on the other side of the door) is in D1, etc. Raven is in D7.

Across the aisle, S1 has a boarder, Olive who moved in today. She didn't take long to settle into a hammock. (Which shows bravery because most cats wouldn't have ever seen a hammock before).

Olive
Gideon is at the end of that row of enclosures in S5. This afternoon he was curled up so tight you couldn't see his ears.
