Joy's new phone

 She says she bought it so that she could take even better photos of our cats. For example:

Fawney and family

 

Cookie

She is a newcomer in Incoming. When I fed her afternoon tea she was lying on her back with her legs in the air. Kim took Sebastian home with her this afternoon so as to give Sybie some room to recover without "big brother" hogging all the food.

Look at those whiskers! The third kitten has ?been adopted.

Dash

Bubbles and Squeek are less nervous.

And next door, Freckles and Posie are almost friendly.

Freckles and Posie

We got a new cat from a colony today from a devoted colony cat carer (Her colony has about 20 cats). He is Angel and he is a sweetie. I had to turf Ravyn out of her stand alone, give it a quick steralization, and reinstall it beside the door. It was nice not having a stand alone there.

 The photos are splendid. Thank you Joy.

 

Exercising kittens

 When I arrived this morning, the door of the small stand alone by the merch shelves was open. And peeking out of the box inside the stand alone was a ginger and white face! 

Chester

Chester was moved from Boarding because he really wasn't getting on with the two wilder kittens that he came in with. Freckles and Posie, in Boarding, seem calmer without him.

(Aren't I lucky that Joy was in to take photos today!)

Blossom and Renny seem happier on Better Row than in Incoming. More space and fewer baby neighbours.

Blossom and Renny

Like Mouse's three who used to be below them. Today was the first time all three were out in the window'd area.

Mouse and her three

They were there before we moved Roxy's into the Incoming stand alone to get some exercise for their flat back feet which have been bound for weeks to try to develop their muscles correctly. Probably playing will do just as much good. I took a lovely video of them bouncing around but cannot upload it. Just imagine them moving:

 One cat who wasn't moving was Dawson. He was happy with a lap. 

Dawson and Alex

Here he was happy with Alex. Later he favoured Robin who visited briefly. Later yet he favoured a complete stranger!
 

PS We have another busted litter can so are down to one Willoughy bin.  

 

Late

 Sorry, I had a committee meeting that went on and on. Poor Aslan had to watch the blank TV all by himself.

We had great adoptions this weekend: Faith, Rain, Le Clerk and Griffin (for the fourth time.)

And today a nice couple came in and adopted Carly who didn't even make it to the Safe website! 

We were kept busy with the usual business plus having to bottle feed Savannah's adopted little one. All that handling was a good opportunity to decide what its sex is. She is a girl. So she was immediately named Sybie after Helen's aunt. By the end of the day she weighted 300gm.

Luckily Joy took some photos of some of our tabbies:

Scardey Pepper and Salt in Incoming

 came in with Rose who is a delight. She will cuddle with anyone.

Valentina hasn't had any kittens yet but she is getting very round in the belly on pregnant rations.

Out the back in Boarding are a shy trio
 

Freckles, Posie and Chester

 

On Better Row is Calli who is more relaxed these days.

Why did you wake me up! says Calli

And Bissie is a delight in the early morning when there is nobody else around. She doesn't greet newcomers. 

Bissie

Neither does Heffer. But she has a devoted admirer who comes every Friday to visit her.

 

Heffer

Thanks for the photos Joy.
