Adoption Tails: Gino Grigio, Pino Nero and Marissa Bruni

 Gino Grigio aka Alto

1 day: The family has changed Gino's name to Alto. He has been eating well and doing his number ones and twos. He came out from under the bed this morning when the owners were in the room changing his litter. He wanted to have a stroke and a little play. He seems very happy and relaxed around the family and started purring. The daughter is very happy with her new brother Alto.

 1 week: Alto's settled in really well. The family had a great week with him. They gradually got him to spend more time out of his room and he is very chilled out with the family. He is doing so well with pre-schooler chaos!

1 month: It's been 4 weeks of loving Alto and he is the most beautiful boy. He has already brought a lot of joy, cuddles and laughs to the family. "A purrrrfect cat for us!" He is a little cheeky with a love for jumping on the kitchen bench and loves to sleep under the covers with the owner. He has a fabulous temperament with her daughter. "Thank you so much to SAFE and his foster carer. We are so happy with him."

 

 

Pino Nero aka Narbee

 

2 days: He has been renamed Narbee. He has been eating, drinking, using his litter box, and staying active.

Marissa Bruni aka Whisper

 

Adopted by Cookie's owner's parents
1 day: Marissa, who will soon be renamed to Whisper, will be living in a calm and quiet home which will suit her shy nature.

4 days: Whisper is still very shy but her owner has made a safe room for her with all the things she needs. She's gradually coming out for cuddles. Her toys are moved around each morning so she seems to be coming out to play during the night.

1 month: Whisper is gaining confidence everyday. She recently discovered the empty bathtub is the ideal place for chasing a ping pong ball around. She's gradually becoming friendly to more people and comes over for a cuddle when someone visits her cosy little room.

Filling the vacuum

 When cats get adopted, condos get vacated and new cats appear to fill the gaps.

In Incoming we have, with no known history (to me... . . so far). He is so upset that he didn't even eat his chicken.

Kitty has been there for a few days is and is relaxing a little bit.

Angie has been around for a fortnight and is getting bold.

And Lily is relaxing at last.

  There are two kittens where the R kittens used to be. I don't think they are related.

The last two R kittens were taken home today despite one infected eye. They are currently "foster to adopt" status. As soon as the eye is all well they will belong to their enthusiastic new mum. Not a chance that she will decide not to adopt them.

In Isolation we have Soybean who was in Incoming and went to the vet to be desexed and they diagnosed ringworm and sent her back, unfixed. . .. or him. I couldn't get an in focus photo because dinner (after being not fed breakfast and ignored at lunchtime because there was nothing written up on the wall) was more important than posing.

There was one straight forward adoption today. Pino Nero  was chosen by a man whose flat mate has moved out and has taken his cat with him. Our adopter was so bereft that his daughter brought him to us to "fill the gap in his life".
