Adoption Tails: Frida, Pork Bun and Ace

Frida

Days 1&2: Frida has settled in well. She’s eating plenty already! She has also used her litter box. “She’s so adorable. Looking very relaxed here!”

Frida, day 1

1 week: She’s doing really well. They’ve let her into a small part of the house which she likes to explore but definitely likes to run back to her safe room. She went to the vet for her vaccination and they were happy with how she was. She sleeps well, eats well, uses her litter tray, and is very affectionate. She’s been renamed Lucy. She’s currently snoozing on the sofa next to her owner.

 2.5 weeks: She likes to sleep next to her owner while they’re working. If she’s awake, she likes walking across the keyboard.

1 month: Lucy is really well and very much part of our family now. Even their older cat has accepted he has a little sister! She is growing fast and loves playing and cuddling.

Pork Bun

1 day: Pork Bun is settling in well. He hasn’t eaten much - only a few bits of wet food morning and night. He’s drinking water regularly and has been using the litter tray. He has started climbing on the owner’s children for a cuddle when they sit in the room. They will be renaming him but first want to get to know him better. “He really is the sweetest little thing!”

1 week: He has been renamed Jinx/Jinxy. He has had a very busy week napping. He found his appetite on the third day and is not shy to tell his new family when he is hungry. He is very comfortable in the living room now and prefers it to his safe room.

Pork Bun = Jinx, 1 week

1 month: Jinx is doing well. He’s hungry all the time and is getting bigger by the day!

 Ace

Ace, at Safe

1 day: He’s doing very well. He’s being renamed Sultan

1 month: He’s all good. Happy, healthy and naughty.

Frantic Friday

 One result is this:

The remaining three ABBA kittens were adopted today. Agnetha and Bjorn went to an enthusiastic teenager and her parents first. They were torn between them and Pumpkin and Midnight but Bjorn had called to the daughter over the www. 

Later a family came to find a kitten to replace their dark tortie who died not so long ago. Amber looked too much like their previous cat and they wanted somebody to go with their 8 year old boy cat. So they chose Freda who was looking very sorry for herself with her siblings gone.

Alongside these adoptions there was a superfluity of vollies and trainees, folk coming with donations of such generosity that they deserved a conducted tour around all the cats, folk coming to pick up their boarding cats who were more, or less, eager to go home. Tilly/ Daphne didn't really want to go but she will be back. Fosterers came in with kittens to be vaccinated including the fosterer of Sushi and her litter. Sushi is in the small stand alone. She is very sweet and a little shy.

Her remaining two kittens are in the stand alone beside the trolley.

Lots of cats got to wander around enjoying the visitors. Max got time in the play place (as all boarders who paid for time have had it.) He is happy to be carried there by Katie.

I didn't get to eat my lunch until 3 - 3:30. At which time I decided that it was too late to hand out the chicken. But Rosanna was so horrified at the idea that the cats would go without their Friday chicken that she offered to stay late to share it out. And Katie wanted some for the Incoming cats too. I got away just as Tim came back from the vets with Coco (check up), Cleo (desex) and somebody else. Opey was let out in the hope that Tim will get him back into his stand alone when he came back from the vets. As I left Opey's expression dared me to walk past him.

Opey is all bluff
