This little fellow has moved in to my Mum's house.

Photobucket

He arrived last Monday evening - just walked in, looked suprised to se us and ran away again. The following morning he moved in properly. He now leaves for a couple of hours around midnight, then returns to stay, sleep, eat and play all day long. Mum's cat, who fights ferociously with the neighbourhood cats allows him to come in, shared food and plays tag with him.

The folks have asked around, checked local shops for notices etc but no one seems to want him/be missing him. He has huge Puss in Boots eyes and demands constant attention :)

orange kitty! I've wanted an orange kitty forever - I keep ending up with gray andwhite or black and white ones! He's just adorable - what is he being called, then?

He's gorgeous, although doesn't do laps.

Names - my Mum and Dad are singularly unimaginative when it comes to naming animals. I had a huge struggle to prevent them naming their current (black) cat "Blackie"(they went with Tommy in the end) - therefore this chap is now called "Ginger". (!)

Awww, so cute!

My nan had a cat who just appeared in her house a lot and she ended up adopting it.

We've never yet had a cat that we went out and got.
Puss came to us at teh age of 19 years when the company whose warehouse she lived in changed hands and teh new management kicked her out.
Gizmo and Indie came to us from 3 doors down - their owners neglected them for months, then told us off for fussing them, then three weeks later knocked on teh door and said they were going to be put down unless we took them in.
Phoebe moved in when her owners dumped her when she was no longer a kitten - she huddled on our trellis for 48 hours straight trying to avoid the neighbourhood toms when she went into her first season, so we tok her in - she was pregnant so we then had her kittens, one of whom, Albert, I kept.
Rufus started to live in my back garden - with a nasty infected abcess and wounded head - I took him in.
Tommy moved in to my Mum's house - he was chipped when we checked- to a Leeds address! The vet couldn't get hold of teh owner though - and now this one!

Sorry, I realise youdidn't need to know all that but I jst started typing and couldn't stop!

Wow, that's a lot of unwanted cats. I can't believe how horrible some people can be to their cats.

Kind of reminds me of my great Aunt. I always remember her looking after lots of cats, but I don't think any of them were hers.

How sweet! He look so cuddly. He sounds quite independent. You should call him Livingston. *g*

He's gorgeous, though not at all cuddly. He is independent in teh sense of "I am kitty here me roar" - but not so much in the "play with now...and now... and now... and now...and now...." states.

As for names - my parents, in their imaginative way have named him Ginger despite my protests!

Oh, he's gorgeous! I love ginger toms. I hope if he does have someone missing him they turn up but if he doesn't he seems very much to have landed on his feet.

Dad bought him a Herring yesterday. He's very much landed on his feet.

He's very entertaining, and quite quite gorgeous.
