Adoption Tails: Miz and Riley, Soybean, Mystic

Miz and Riley

 1 day: “They seem to be settling in slowly. They are in our spare room with boxes to hide in. Miz seems more relaxed so far and Riley a little more on edge, although she has been purring. We’ve checked on them throughout the day and they’ve both come out of their boxes to say hello. Riley is scratching the door this evening. Miz has used the litter tray, I’m not sure about Riley yet. Both have had dinner this evening and been drinking. They were happy to do it in our presence.”

1 week: “They are settling in. We let them explore outside of the safe room on Monday and Miz has been the most settled so far. Riley is more settled today but less adventurous. They do seem to be relaxing a bit more. They both seem to be using the litter tray based on what I am clearing each day.”


 5 weeks: “The cats are very much settled in, have a routine and their favourite sleeping spots. Riley has come to the fore and is much more confident than Miz. She enjoys a cuddle on the sofa each evening. She is very much a lap cat! We are a bit concerned about Miz. She continues to scratch her neck and under her chin and breaking the skin.” They have given her Felpreva but are wondering if she suffers from anxiety as well as allergies. “She is a bit more reserved but does love the itchy area being soothed and stroked. They both do appear ‘ravenous’ several hours before feeding time. They scratch our bedroom door every morning to get us up! They are indoor cats and don’t want them to be overweight”

 Soybean, now Winnie

 

1 day: She has been renamed Winnie. “She is doing incredibly well. She is very confident in her room and has not been hiding or scared at all. She is eating and drinking very well and has used her litter box multiple times.”



Winnie and TIg

1.5 weeks: “Winnie is an absolute champion and well and truly owns the whole house now. She loves playing with our two year old cat and they are getting on incredibly well. Their process has been a lot easier than we could’ve hoped.”


WInnie at 5 weeks

5 weeks: “Winnie is doing really well. She grown nicely and has settled in really well. Feels like she’s always been with us. She has a very loud meow to her still so small frame and loves playing with Tig. The cats get so much from each other’s company.”

 

Mystic, now Delphi

 

1 day: Mystic's new name is Delphi. She's been eating like a champion and pooped 3 times already! She spent the better part of the weekend in the bathroom and has the day to explore the attached bedroom, she seems to be pretty chilled.


1 week: Delphi had tapeworms and the meds has disrupted her bowel movements but besides that, she's going really well. Weeing and drinking a lot of water which is still positive She's exploring the apartment now. Super playful and mostly sleeps through the whole night. She's got her safe spot to go back to when she hears something unfamiliar. She's happy to take a scratch on the ear (even the belly) but she doesn't quite want to sit with the owners yet, they're sure it will come!

1 month: She's having a ball and so are the owners! She's got a stash of balls and xmas decorations under the ottoman in the bedroom! Delphi's out of her habit of piddling on the spare bed and is comfortable out on the balconies now so the owners are pretty chuffed. She will sleep when they're sleeping, except for the occasional ball bounce at 2 in the morning. "All in all very very happy cat owners!"

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.

The Sheikh

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.

Soybean

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".
