Happy Endings - New Beginnings

Below are a few snippets from the many letters that we have receive from the people that have helped us by adopting their cats and kittens from us.

Elwood
 
We got Elwood from Rotherham Rescue Rangers about 3 weeks ago, I said I would send some pictures and an update. He is doing fine, he is very active and loves biting anything and everything!! He has settled in well and is eating well. We love the little man.

Princess Isabella
 
Princess Isabella is wonderful, full of energy, play and vocal noises! Beau and her Highness are firm friends (but she is the boss, of that there is no doubt). They play for hours, chasing about - although Bella climbs the curtains at the minute to thwart him! She is so funny, looks so innocent but is a real feisty one ... Beau looks resigned to a life under her control.

Mr. Chubbs & Ruby
 
We re-homed Mr. Chubb's and Ruby in September last year. They have settled in a treat and are a pleasure to have. They are both affectionate and playful little cats with tons of energy, especially Ruby. Mr. Chubb's loves his food, hence the name he adopted, he always seems to be hungry and will finish of Ruby's dinner any chance he gets. Ruby is quite an independent cat and is very easy going, she loves the outdoors especially at night time unlike her brother who doesn't venture out the garden as often as her. Although they have very different personalities, they get on extremely well and love to snuggle up together on an evening in front of the telly.

Lexi

We picked up a Kitten from RRR this weekend. We've called her Lexi and she's our daughters pride and joy. Lexi was very nervous at first and went into hiding, but what a difference a day makes. On Sunday evening she positively sprung into life and you can always tell when a cat has made itself at home, when it decides to climb the curtains.

She's enjoying playing with her new big brother Cody, who keeps a very watchful eye over her. Lexi adores spending time cuddling up and being very spoilt by our daughter.

Mika

Just to let you know Mika is doing fine and is settling in great.

She is so much fun and playful, anyway here are the photos I promised.

Chester

Chester is doing very well, he is very very mischievous, he really makes me laugh when is being naughty. When we tell him off he walks over to us and rubs his face on you. He is so cute you can't stay mad at him. He had a little accident the other night, we are decorating at the minute and currently have no door on the room which we are decorating. I was busy painting and saw him sneak in the room. I shooed him out but he ran back in and jumped onto the draws which had a dust sheet over so as he clung onto the dust sheet it slipped off the draws and Chester landed in the paint tray then he ran off getting paint everywhere. When I caught him I took him straight to the bathroom where my partner was in the bath & placed Chester in the bath too. He didn’t mind too much and didn't struggling like I thought he would. He looked like a little drowned rat bless him. He did looked so small and sorry for himself. Thinking about it now it was very funny. I am so glad I got him, I couldn’t imagine what it would be like without him now. He is such a character.

Angel

Hi, here are a few pictures of Angel. She is doing brilliant. She now plays with all her toys and runs round. Angel has settled fantastically well, I could not ask for better cat, she is so well behaved.

 

Dexter

After losing our previous cat at the age of 19 we thought it would be impossible for us to love another cat as much as him.  How wrong we were, Dexter came to us in June 2008 and from the first moment he waddled across the floor, we were smitten.  He is just such a character, always willing to play but just as happy having a cuddle on your knee.  We all love him, even when he is chewing our feet early on a Sunday morning!!

Winston

Thank you for the kitten we collected last Saturday.  We have decided to call him Winston. He has settled in very well and seems to think he owns the place!  He’s starting to get his confidence up and is nearly unrecognisable from when we first collected him on Saturday.  He still runs away if we approach when he’s on the floor but apart from that he loves a stroke and a cuddle. Winston is very playful and loves to climb our 5ft plant.  We’re hoping to get him an activity centre very soon. Thank you again for the kitten.  He seems to like his new home very much.

Skye & Phoenix

Both of the kitties are well and healthy and growing by the day. We have decided that they are going through their adolescence as they are really into mischief lately. They climb on shelves and knock things about and try to get into all sorts of stuff but we love them to bits. They are happy and adorable. Thank you for keeping in touch. I hope that all your adoptee's are doing as well as ours.

Kiri

Thought you might like a couple more photos of Kiri!  He is growing fast and is still just as adorable!

 

 

Tigger & Tilly

Just thought I would drop you a quick line about the 2 kittens we adopted from you in June 08. They have made themselves very much a part of the family. The dog absolutely loves having them here and they get on so well with him (live toys to play with!!) Our older cat still has his moments with them, but overall he tolerates them jumping all over him!!  Tilly is a proper mummy’s girl and Tigger in just a law unto himself (very mischievous!!)

I just wanted to say thank you so much for allowing us to adopt them and give them a loving warm home.

 

 

 

Reubens & Rafael

As promised here is a picture of Reubens and his little brother.  I managed to get one while they were still!  Reubs has been with me for two weeks now, and has definitely got his paws under the table.  He's started letting me know when his meal times are and bashing me in the morning when he thinks I should be getting out of bed.  He and Rafael get on very well, they are quite fond of playing chase around the house until they get tired, and then crashing out on a bed or settee.  I've got him booked in for his first flu/enteritis jab, so I'll have to see whether he still loves me after that.

Mork & Mindy

Just thought I would give you an update.  Both Mork and Mindy are doing well, they seem to be growing/changing colour by the minute.  Mindy is definitely still the more adventurous of the 2 but Mork is getting there slowly, it is very sweet as he cries if he can not see Mindy.  Mindy however doesn't seem too bothered. No one has done any damage so far, apart from to my legs which they both still insist on climbing up at any opportunity. We survived our first visit to the vet on Friday as well which went a lot smoother than i would have expected which was good. Thanks again,

Blue

Here are some pictures of Blue. She has settled down really well. Thanks once again.
 

Nathan & Peter

The kittens are getting on great, they’re very sociable, and play together wonderfully. I hope there brothers have found a loving home. Pictures attached. Thank you very much.

 

Bella & Dora
 
Dora is certainly living up to her name of 'Dora the Explorer' - we put our Christmas tree up yesterday and she had pulled it down within about 15 minutes!  She's always looking for adventure! They always sleep together like this, it's so sweet!

Poppy

I am attaching some photo's of Poppy for you. She's been with us now for 10 months but it seems like forever because she is so much a part of our family. She was very timid when she came to us and spent the first few days behind the fridge. We left her to it to do things in her own time and didn't force her out, except to go to the vets for micro chipping and vaccinations. Getting her into her cat basket for her first 2 trips to the vets was easy but by her third visit for her second lot of jabs she was more confident and it took me half an hour to get her in it. It's not easy trying to fit a cat through a small door when all 4 legs are stretched out! (Where do they learn that?) She weighed just over 3 lbs when she arrived and now weighs around 6 and a half lbs.

She is great friends with Eddie the dog and rubs up against his face. He washes her head and she washes his nose. It's so lovely to see them together especially as he is so big and she is small so one lick from his tongue and she's soaked! Sometimes she'll go and lie on his bed with him. She also has her own door so she can come and go as she pleases although if we're in she expects us to open the cat flap and if we don't she gets the dog to open it for her. She was once chased down our garden path by a big ginger cat. Eddie sorted it out though, chasing it back up the path while Poppy looked on with almost a smirk on her face. After the ginger cat had fled the garden Poppy walked up to Eddie to rewarded him by rubbing up against him purring away.  

She's very vocal and we know when she's is in as she miaows from the moment her head comes through the cat flap. She 'talks' to us non stop and is only quiet when she's eating (which she does frequently) or sleeping and if she's awake and not miaowing she's purring. She's such a sweet natured cat too. She never hisses, spits or scratches us even when I'm shoving worm tablets down her throat. In short, she is the most beautiful cat. She's wary of people outside but indoors she is really confident and will let anyone coming in stroke her and if they don't she miaows at them until they do. You ignore her at your peril!

She's a real character and we love her very much. Thank you for allowing us to have her. We know she's happy and so are we to have such a lovely cat.  

Paddy & Kenny
 
I just want to update you on the progress Paddy and Kenny are making since we adopted them in May from you.

Paddy is in the first picture he is very loveable and likes a cuddle. He eats so much food every day I often wonder where he puts it all but then he has put on so much weight I think it is obvious.

His favourite pastime after food is sleeping.

Kenny was extremely nervous when he came to us, but he has come round a bit now although he is still not fully relaxed. He loves to play with his yellow mouse and we spend a lot of time fetching it for him when he knocks it under the sofa.

Paddy and Kenny spend a lot of time together playing in our garden and chasing everything that moves.

They both enjoy catching live presents for us and bringing them in the house for us to look at- we have had numerous mice, birds, moths and frogs up to now so I am guessing they are happy with us because that is what cats do isn’t it?
